@renton82
you can switch off raise to wake.
by the way: I found it to be too reactive and noticed that setting it to “low” reduces the sensitivity of lighting up

renton82

@freeheeler Ok, i have set it as you said, but i would have preferred an option to turn off backlight completely…

surfboomerang

@freeheeler I agree, it’s way more sensitive then the S9P. Maybe even too sensitive. I even noticed the backlight came on even in full sunlight.
Isn’t the light sensor suppose to prevent that?

@dombo send me a PM if you have not contacted anyone else already.

@freeheeler there is no ‘Exercise only’ option anymore or am I missing something? I used this on my S9P as I do not need to light up screen in watch only mode…

surfboomerang

@Likarnik I think a lot has changed here. I also missed the “Adaptive” option for standby-light.

Likarnik

@Tieutieu do you have iOS? For me on Android (beta) it shows watch name:

@Likarnik Vertical clearly made you faster

freeheeler

@renton82
if you toggle off standby and select off in raise to wake, there shouldn’t be any light anymore, no?

surfboomerang

@renton82 Also make sure backlight setting is off if you scroll down from the watch face

Egika

@freeheeler I think there is no way to switch off the light that comes on when pushing the buttons on the watch…

It’s exactly what i mean.

@Egika
ok I didn’t catch that. was this possible with previous models? I can’t remember to be honest

Tieutieu

@Likarnik yes I’m on iOS => just ckecked again. Name watch is not displayed. Not a big deal a guess it will be correct in a next update of SA.
But I will try again this afternoon and see if it is linked to the fact that I was on flight mode when I synchronised yesterday.

@Likarnik @surfboomerang the backlight settings have been heavily modified, new UI watches will have a different behavior than old UI watches.

I find that it works very well !!

@Tieutieu my configuration (tested for few months now) is:

Brightness: low
Standby: off
Raise to wake: low

Battery consumption is minimal, and it is bright enough when needed.

@Tieutieu no it’s not there. I have noticed and asked the same yesterday. (I’m on iOS too) I hope it’ll be added in the next update. Not a big deal but nice to have.

Exactly same configuration as you, exactly same conclusions !

Very nice! Still dreaming of “athlete versions” of S9PP and SV: flat bottom, no internal OHR, little lighter, no “wellness tracking”
