17.26: Backlight does not turn off by gesture in activities

Hello everyone,

coming from Fenix series I just figured out the following with my new Forerunner 955 Solar (FW 17.26):

In activities the backlight does turn on by gesture as it should be.

But when I put my arm back down, it does not turn off immediately. It does only after the configured timeout is expired.

Outside activities in watch mode everything works as intended, backlight turns on and also off by gesture.

Am I the only one having this problem?

Best

  • in my opinion it's not a mistake....the 955 has always done it this way and the 935 did it this way too. I would also like it better if when I put my arm down, the screen would turn off.
