Apple Watch 4 with latest software ; set watch to remain awake for 70 seconds upon tap screen.
As soon as you lower wrist watch goes dormant. REALLY??
Frustrating as heck. Have an app that allows me to remote start my vehicle but won’t function in sleep mode. What’s the point of incorporating a function that is disabled with natural body movements?
Any suggestions?
Otherwise very impressed with product.
I don’t believe I am. But I have mine set to 15 secs. The developer of the app you are using needs to allow it to stay on longer. I suggest you need to post your feedback to Apple below
Yes that’s correct. It’s to save battery. The idea that if you drop your wrist you are no longer looking at your Watch, so hence why do you need it on? O and if you do raise your arm to look at it , it come back on.
My apologies. I thought was an App. As I say if post your feedback to Apple is your best course of action.
“Have an app that allows me to remote start my vehicle but won’t function in sleep mode.”
How many people need 70 seconds to read the time. If you are actively using the watch it stays on regardless of wether you have set it up to STAY ON FOR 70 SECONDS or not. You are missing the point entirely.
its Not an app. It’s native. Thanx for responding though.
It is meant to function that way.
If you need the face on , keep your wrist up.
Do you have background app refresh on for the app? It would should allow the app to work in the background even with the screen off.
