      Update was released, so i can test battery life. Now backlight is enabled on every button press. Really curious how it will drain battery.

        I really really dislike this “feature”. The toggle function was much better. So please update me, if the downgrade worked @vio112
        Thanks!

        But why does the “backlight on / off” function is still in the quick menu? It has then no function…

          @theguyfromthesummit it has a function. It runs the backlight on , not the standby light on.

            In my case not, or I do sth wrong.

            Backlight: low
            Standby: off
            Raise the wake: off
            Do not disturb: off

            quick menu backlight: on/ off does not change anything
            Light is only on, when I push a button (so like standby was before the update) and the old tab to toggle on/ off does not work

            Backlight: low
            Standby: on
            Raise the wake: off
            Do not disturbe: off

            quick menu backlight: on/ off does not change anything
            No matter what I do, the light is always on.

              I just did the “downgrade”. It worked fine but then it was as if the watch is new. I had to re-enter my personal data and re-create my custom exercises. Not a big deal.

              What does bother me is that Suntolink and the app keep telling me that there is a new version to install.

                @pikeviewer thanks for the info, I might downgrade mine on the weekend.
                Unfortunately “snap to route” is a nice function …
