continuous display during an activity no longer works

Double check your always on display settings. Also, your title says during an activity, but the description says not during an activity?

Double check your settings. Try a restart. If that doesn't work you might have to do a reset.

The settings have been checked. I'll try restarting, hoping that will help. I'm not really keen on doing a complete reset of the watch. thanx.

Understandable. But you can always restore the old settings. There's an option in the Connect phone app under system -> device backups.

Hey there, jlsi . We'd be glad to look into this for you. Could you use our Secure File Upload tool to upload a video that shows your watch's display going blank during activities? Also please upload photos that show your Always On During Activity setting enabled. This will help us get a full understanding of what you're experiencing.
