Turning flashlight on/off during a workout
-
@Egika how did you configure this? When I long press the bottom button I get the Control Panel menu. Maybe because this is the pinned widget??
-
@Gideon-Kaempfer you were asking for “during activity”.
During activity, the long press lower button always takes you to the activity control panel. Regardless of any pinned widgets or button shortcuts, that only are active when in the watch screen and no ongoing activity. -
@Egika I see. IMHO it would be better if we could have custom shortcuts during the activity. Fiddling with menus, especially the weird flashlight menu to select brightness, is not something I can manage while running…
-
@Gideon-Kaempfer Whats weird about the brightness setting?
it is also just upper button: brighter, lower button: less bright. middle button: off
Imo this is not very weird, but easy to operate even if not looking at the screen.
-
@Egika the weird part is that when you press the “off” (middle button) you still stay in the flashlight menu, and need yet another longer press on the middle button to exit it. If you don’t want long press, you need to go up (top button) and select “back” (middle button). I think it can easily be made simpler: enter the menu with a shortcut. Exit on off.
-
@Gideon-Kaempfer i always swipe to the right to exit the menus.
plus I was referring to you mentioning the menu to select brightness.
It is a little difficult to discuss, if you keep moving the target… -
@Egika I get it. I was trying to avoid swipes due to sweaty fingers
-
It’s being improved and known to all of us.
-
On the Vertical 2, a swipe wouldn’t even do anything in activity mode, would it?
-
@zhangschmidt if you are in the screen for flashlight it is two presses. Off button then swipe and you are back in the activity screen.
