Night mode

Oli over 1 year ago

Would be cool when garmin could add/fix these:

1. When Night mode is active it would be nice, when touchscreen would be automatically deactivaded

2. Configured a hotkey for flashlight. When activated during nightmode and after using it, i go back by back button to watchface. unfortunately then the watchface stays on, until i press down for example.

Thanks

That sounds like a excellent idea, if this setting does not yet exist!

For (1) I don't agree, I actually use the touch-screen during night mode, when I want to know what time it is I tap the screen. For me at least the touchscreen seems to work well enough as to not light up often due to "ghost presses".

For (2) I have reported this bug at https://forums.garmin.com/beta-program/forerunner-965/forerunner-965---public-beta-bug-reports/i/public-beta-version-4-12/stuck-with-always-on-display-in-sleep-mode - it is weird that this one has no received any attention, as it is very easy to reproduce and definitively a bug. I guess it doesn't have high priority though.

Update (2) now also reported for the current beta version (and receiving more attention/votes): forums.garmin.com/.../sleepmode-display-stays-on-after-using-torch

Thank you. Then they could introduce a setting for deactivating touch during sleep mode. As far as i remember this setting was also there with epix gen 2.
