I got my sense on release day. Today for third time the display did not dim. This means, instead of going into AOD mode, it stayed in regular watch display mode, including working seconds/second hand ( not freezing ). This happened with native Fitbit watchfaces ( Stats and Light ). Workaround was either to change display timeout or to change the watchface. This could not only lead to an unexpected massive battery drain if undetected, but maybe even to a screen burn in. So it should be added to bugtracker.

@Cyberdome Can you tell me a bit more about what's happening?  

Are you saying you have your sense turned off for the always on display, but it's staying on?  

 

Can you swipe to go to the left of the main screen and make sure the settings are not on for always on display?  

The icon on the bottom left should be dimmed.

Hi kawaiiko,

thank you for support. But I have AOD set to 'on', and a screen timeout of 8sec. Sometimes ( 3x so far )  the screen timeout  does not kick in, leaving the watchface on in its full glory, so not dimming down, including still visible seconds and health information. This will stay this way until I do a workaround.

Basically a real 'always on' display 😁

Best regards
