Sleep mode keeps turning back on

I have an FR265S.

This morning I woke up an hour before my programmed wake time. I manually switched sleep mode off, a little later I noticed the watch was back in sleep mode. I switched sleep mode back off again, but it happened again several times. Super annoying, Any ideas? Thanks

I agree and it has been reported often enough that it would be reasonable to expect Garmin to have fixed it by now. I would go further and suggest that, by default, sleep mode is off and users should have to choose to turn it on if they wish to have a phone screen they cannot read during the night.

Get the basics right please! When I am in bed I'm not looking for an exercise device, just a watch. The minimum requirement therefore, if I wake in the middle of the night and want to check what time it is (pretty much the only thing anyone will want to do in this scenario), is to be able to read the display. I do not want to have to hunt for my reading glasses in the dark and I dare not turn the light on for fear of waking my partner.

Basic user friendliness is all I am asking for.
