Hi, I really like the simple Pedometer watch app. It's info: just shows steps and mileage at the same time. But it doesn't continually show these measurements. I'll press the crown and click on the app on my watch and they stay visible for maybe 10 secs. at the most. Is there a way to keep the steps/mileage window viable until I'm done? Thanks! -Joan

You can change how long an app screen is displayed in General / Wake Screen / Return to Clock. Options are 2 minutes / after 1 hour and and after crown press.


So if you set it to after 1 hour, every time you look at your watch it should display pedometer once you click on it.


Hope that helps.
