      @inkognito Yes, there is this problem on Suunto 9 no-baro, but it does not happen every day. It started with the previous firmware 2.16.26.

        @inkognito okay if you manage to reproduce it, send logs immediately after and send me a PM. I’ll report it to Suunto.

        I use alarms often but I am usually sleeping and stop them without even opening my eyes, so never noticed if the light is there or not.

          @isazi Hi! Today again the screen backlight did not work when the alarm went off. How do I send the logs the next time this happens? I’ve never done this before.

              @stas-varazhbit Checked. My alarm clock does not always turn on the backlight.

                  I had the same issue, but after I’ve made a full factory reset I’ve noticed that the alarm is working properly.

                    Should be (I do not have iOS):

                    Go to profile and scroll down full and you will see a button that says send logs

                      @stas-varazhbit I had the same (similar?) problem this morning with S9B. The watch sounded the alarm , but the screen remained blank, despite my pressing various buttons (I cannot say that i pressed them in any specific order - i was half asleep (:-).

                        you’re crazy, I bet you spent the entire evening setting up all your customized sport modes one by one since we don’t have a setup backup…

                        half-serious joke aside… I did not experience an issue with my backlight recently, the watch might have found its center again and works fine in this regard.
                        knock on wood it remains like that 👍

                            Suunto has an open ticket for this, and some people send logs already, so no need to send more logs for now. Hopefully it will be fixed soon.

                              @mdzott definitely, no backlight when the alarm sounds. Verified with a white background and black, so this is not the issue (i guess, the update is).

                                I recently faced a situation like this:
                                I snooze in the morning after the alarm goes off. When the 2nd alarm goes off, even though I press all the buttons, the alarm goes off, but the screen does not light up.
                                It returns to normal after a while.
                                arm wake is also on.
                                in the morning it gets hard to see the screen in the dark
