When running with the Blaze today it paused and stopped tracking twice I believe because my coat touched the pause button touch screen. I'd like an option to remove the touch screen pause and use the physical buttons to stop this happening.

Could it be your hand hinged and pushed the pause button? I have had it happen to me with my lifting cloves at the gym. The workaround i have is to ware it on my right hand; that way the two button won't be pressed.

Thought you might try.

This happened to me today, while I was wearing my coat. Wasn't sure if it was the coat hitting the physical buttons or the touch screen. But it did make my blaze unusable
