Bug in walking mode?
-
I select “walking” mode, then I start the activity, the screen turns off, and there’s no way to restore it other than soft resetting the watch. This happens whether I start the activity without waiting for the GPS and/or heart rate sensor signals to sync, or if I wait for both. Any suggestions?
-
@ShinJCD only for walking? Just tried but I do not see any issue here
-
Yes, since the last update

Custom walking mode or default one? -
Free workout, no customization. Meanwhile, this morning I discovered that after starting my workout, as I mentioned, the screen goes dark (it almost seems like it automatically goes into “do not disturb” mode), but leaving it off still tracks my walk. Once I finished, I tried pressing the center button and, blindly, still using the crown, I selected “end”: at that point the display came back on…

@ShinJCD I can’t confirm the issue. But have you tried playing around with the “Display always on” or “Wake when lifted” settings? (Freely translated from the German setting)
-
The “wake when lifted” function has always been active, I will try the other one too, thanks for the advice (I should point out, however, that this thing seems to happen only under direct sunlight: it almost seems like the display darkens automatically when the activity starts)

This could be something to do with Settings -> Display -> Brightness. I have it set to medium. However, it is strange, as the display should get brighter the more light falls on it. I don’t have any problems with it, but I do notice how the automatic adjustment is sometimes a bit low or sluggish.
