Always on Display

[KennyMcC]

Hi, I've moved from a Charge 4 to Charge 6 for the Always on Display, but I've noticed the AoD is brighter than the screen when it is awake. My screen Display Settings are set to 'Dim' as this is all I need most of the time, but AoD can't be set - it's permanently in 'Normal' so the Charge 6 gets BRIGHTER when it's not being used! I've asked on the live chat for help but they didn't know what to do. The battery drains much quicker, and it is too bright for sleeping and pretty obvious it's on when in dull surrounds. I can't see a solution on the forum so maybe I am the only person with this? If not, how do I change the AoD settings to match my screen wake settings?

Thanks

Kenny

Hi @KennyMcC ,

I'm not sure this will help much, but have you tried setting the Screen Awake settings to "Tilt To Wake"?

I've turned it off @DramaQueenDiva because it was draining the battery in a day and really annoying at night! I'm back to using 'Auto Screen wake' as it's called on the Charge 6! I just can't understand why a developer would think 'we'll add controls for the display, but just make the AoD settings fixed'. Doesn't make any sense to me, but there we go! I've added it to the Product Feedback forum too so let's see if anyone else wants controls.

Just got my Charge 6, and this is my big issue with it, potentially will return it because of it (any other simple reliable good-looking fitness trackers that have a good AoD mode?). The AoD shouldn't be brighter than the brightness level that the user's configured, and ideally should be much dimmer than that too: that's how AoD works on phones, to conserve battery life, not look so attention grabbing, etc
