double tap to wake/hardware button to wake

Is there a way to enable double tap to wake on Venu 3? Otherwise, can I require pressing any hardware button to wake?

I have a *lot* of false wakes from my toddler, from my wife, the shower, or even when I move my hand quickly. I turned off gestures, and I use screen-lock but this isn't a good solution because it is still bright and disruptive, and requires a long press at all other times to actually get into the watch.

Hello!

There is not a way to require a button push to wake the Venu 3 device. You could potentially turn the display brightness down so that it wasn't quite as disruptive, but you haven't missed anything while looking for another solution.

This also isn't a great solution. I would be manually managing brightness in so many situations. A better solution could be to change the lock color from bright orange (which I'd never choose aesthetically anyway). But this *also* doesn't seem to be an option?

Also it seems developers could very easily support waking on hardware buttons only. All hardware buttons already wake the screen. So we only need to disable touch input when screen is asleep.

Good ideas. I recommend submitting them on the Garmin Ideas page
