Separate "turn on screen" from "unlock touchscreen" #1839
Comments
#961 is somewhat related: it tries to address one of the problematic scenarios with a different approach. However, looks like that patchset won't be merged, the solution proposed here is different and it covers other scenarios too. |
You could just use raise to wake, shake or double tap to wake. Edit: I don't see how raise to wake would be a problem. Really what would fix it with not using two hands is shake to wake. |
"raise wrist` by itself also triggers lots of false positives. TBH: I don't mind it waking in these situations (even if unnecessary), but I do mind it unlocking since that's where the chaos starts. |
My pull request that was merged recently significantly reduces the false positives in the raise wrist algorithm. See #826. That doesn't solve all the issues mentioned though. |
#1359 addresses this issue, i've been using this for a while and it works great |
Verification
Introduce the issue
There's a lot of situations where my Pinetime registers false taps/drags:
The practical results of these issues, is that I often lift my arm to look at my watch, and I suddenly have a new watch face (because accidental taps reached that menu and changed the configured face), or sometimes a game of pong is running, or some random menu is open. I've see it all so far.
I have "wake up" set to "single tap" and "raise wrist" (actually, I just checked and these settings seem to have gotten garbled last time I used the watch, but these are my intended settings).
I could disabled these to prevent the issue, but that would also mean that I'd need both hands unlock the watch and look at the time: definitely not convenient.
Preferred solution
I think the most useful approach would be to split the "wake up" setting from the "unlock" setting.
I want my watch to wake up (e.g.: the screen to power on) when I tap once or raise my arm, but I don't want the screen to unlock (e.g.: register taps).
I think leaving a separate setting for "unlock" would be useful, since I'd leave all boxes unchecked for that and require touching the side button to unlock it.
