Where is the option to turn touch off?
-
If I use default settings with full display activation, taking a shower with the watch almost always results in the watch doing a lot of unintended things on its own, like setting an alarm, starting an activity, turning on “Do not disturb” mode, and a lot of other things. That is super annoying!
On the other hand, if I change display “Raise to wake” option to “Display Only”, touch is not automatically activated and it is ok in the shower, but then I no longer get a normal colorful watchface. It works as if the watch was in AOD mode - the watchface remains very minimal and more difficult to read. That also means that if I want to see any information at all except the time, I have to press a button.
I don’t really use touch except in rare case when I want to pan the map. What I would really prefer to keep the full activation on “Raise to wake” but disable touch. Why there isn’t a separate option for touch?
Alternatively, if the watch was smart enough to understand that the display is wet and temporarily disable touch, that would be good too.

@sky-runner a good suggestion. I would love to have an option to turn off touchscreen or only have it for activities. A had “a shower problem” with Vertical, with race s barely have it, since do not use always on display, but such an option would be nice.

I don’t use always on display either. The display activates when I turn my wrist, and then water hitting the screen start doing things.

@sky-runner yea sorry I ment, I use “display only” mode so touch is as you say is disabled for that one.
