Option to disable the touch screen on Blaze

[Paolojorge88]

I’ve seen posts already regarding a “lock screen” for touch sensitive watches but what I’d like to know is, is it possible to fully disable the touch screen on my Blaze? I’m fed up of my workouts being cancelled or losing progress when out on a long walk due to the hyper sensitivity of the screen. I’d be perfectly happy to navigate using the buttons if it meant that at the top of a mountain I wiped the sweat from my device and I didn’t cancel the tracking.

Hey @Paolojorge88, it's great to have you here.

I think it would be great to have an option to lock the Blaze while doing exercise. Please take a look at the Lock Screen/buttons during Exercise request, vote for it and leave your comment.

Keep the stepping up!

Unfortunately, it appears that this solution is not going to be implemented by FitBit.  I am seeing the same issue with my Versa.  When I contacted FitBit they appeared to have no interest in making changes.  The Versa is the first FitBit product that I have regretted purchasing.  I am hoping that they have a better implementation in the Charge 3.
