      I was wondering if the watch has any form of support for button lock? When wearing a jacket, I often find I’ve pressed a button or two without noticing. As a result, when I check my watch I’ll often find it has started a stopwatch or is searching for my location because the Suunto app was started. The buttons are just to easy to press compared to my fenix.

        May be it’s possible to choose an option that buttons do nothing!?

          @Aleksander-Helgaker - got to say that I have never found that an issue as I find they need a reasonably hard push to interact.

          I know this isn’t a good option, but you could use the touch lock option: Settings - display - touch lock.This pretty much locks everything, and you have to long press the home/start button (it gives you a count down) to unlock everything.When touch lock is active, pressing any button only wakes the screen.

          This is part of the reason why I would love to see the ability to customize the quick settings bar, as I find a setting like this far more useful than Find My Phone.

            @Jamie-BG touch lock seems to work exactly like what I was after! When I saw it in the menu earlier I didn’t think it would affect the physical buttons. Thanks 😊
