      @дима-мельниченко It is possible to enable/disable backlight during the activity by pressing the middle button a couple of seconds and adjust the backlight setting.
      Not as convenient as toggle, but it works.

          @frederic once by doing this I had between 100 and 600m to add to each ravito or in the end 2-3 km too much.
          It is not very serious but it is a shame to have a very precise gps watch and to spoil everything with this defect.
          it would be better to be able to stop the gps during breaks (but not the duration)

            You can prepare a sport mode without GPS and switch sport with upper right button when in aid station and back to normal mode when out.

              @rob33 could also pause the watch at the aid station and then have fields that show you total duration which should include the paused time…

                  My wishlist:
                  -Automated backlight during activity or tapping the screen
                  -Custom data fields for sport modes or more screens to choose from. Biggest thing is now that you can’t see heart rate and what have you left in interval time/distance on same screen.

                    Automated backlight during activity or tapping the screen

                    Already possible by changing the backlight mode to “Toggle” in the settings

                    you can’t see heart rate and what have you left in interval time/distance on same screen

                    I have a interval screen (speed) that shows those fields

                      My mistake in that:)

                      It shows how much you have gone, not what you have left.

                      I would like to have dispaly like Duration with heart rate, but in lowest field would have remaining distance or duration, which ever is set to target.

                        @stromdiddily Unless I’m mistaken, in my opinion, pausing stops the countdown … a suitable mode is really missing (garmin understood it 😉 )

                          @stromdiddily the idea is to stop the “false” distances when you are stopped. . to gain in comfort and precision
                          With the firmware update for the S9 I don’t see any distance added to my stops, at all! Have you tested this?

                            It would be great to use the pace option to follow a rute using GPS and, at the same time, record a track and have the values of it. I think bother options are not possible. But maybe I’m wrong.

                              @ruth-benet-prats you mean ghost runner? Being able to use previous run as a base for navigation and have a bunch of UI elements on navigation view to show you where you’re at in comparison to the previous run?

                                  Nope, doesn’t work. Need to press a button to activate screen and after that you can tap the screen to active backlight.

                                    @artofin have you set the screen to turn off after 10 seconds? Then you’re correct, because it disables touch. Without it, I can tap on the screen and the back light turns on.

                                        Touch screen was off. But tapping doesn’t work with gloves, so…

                                        Btw, when I had Spartan Ultra setting heart rate target in interval training was useless. It was telling to go faster or slower regardless of what phase was going. If heart rate target was set to zone 3, it was telling to keep that also in rest phase.
                                        Is it still the same? Just wanted to know before I go try it and get dissapointed😅

                                          @łukasz-szmigiel no, let me explain…when you create a rute and start following it you can’t register that track at the same time… So that activity is not done…

                                            you can create a route in SuuntoApp, tranfer it to your watch.
                                            but then, on the watch, there are two ways of following it :
                                            1- in the watch navigation menu : and i guess you are using this.
                                            2- but you can also follow this route during an activity recording
                                            a- in the pre-start screen of an activity, you can scroll down and there are options there, including navigation
                                            b- while already recording, you can long-press the middle button, a get this option menu and begin navigation from there, anywhen you want.

                                            is it what you look at ?
