Why Does My F8 Go Nuts in the Shower?

When the shower water hits the screen it registers as a touch. Used to happen to me to on my 7X SS. The touch screen lock on the F8 should stop this. You may have it disabled? No longer an issue for me on my enduro 3 with touch screen lock enabled. 

You need to lock the screen.   If you have not change the default short cuts, press  <START> + <DOWN> will lock/unlock the touch screen.

BBK.Paul is correct; start+down locks and unlocks the touch screen. Try to aquire the habit of locking the touch screen before a shower.

Secondly, if you are deep into the glances and want to back out to home, use your other hand and put your entire palm over the watch face. That is the get-to-the-root shortcut.

Because Garmin did not add "Water on touchscreen" detection feature that turns it off automatically, you have to do that manually.

Ah, I forgot the smother the face trick.

Is there a watch brand that has this feature?

No idea I only use Garmin. My E-Book Reader Koro Aura H2O from 2025 does this, It's not that complex.

Yes. I've used Huawei gt runner for a couple of weeks, touchscreen(TS) management has just working. No complaints at all. By the way, OHRS was perfect too, compared to G.

All my Garmin watches (VA, FR) have this issue and TS must be manually disabled a TS if you don't want your watch face will be deleted :)

Winner, winner, chicken dinner! Cool! Thanks for the tip.
