Introduce the issue

When using the wake on 'raise wrist' I often get unintended touch inputs, e.g. from the sleeve of my shirt.

Preferred solution

My quick and dirty solution is to disable the touch screen when the watch was woken up by the wrist raise or shake event. This can be easily done by calling here:

GoToRunning();
}

  GoToRunning(); 
  touchPanel.Sleep();
}

This has some negative side effects though:

  • if I want to use the touchscreen after wrist raise, I have to push the button twice to activate it
  • sometimes the touchscreen is not immediately fully off and one swipe is still recognized?
  • its rather a hack than a clean solution

One idea to make it nicer is to add in the settings a dedicated wake up option, that disables the touchscreen.
What do you think? If you like the idea let me know then I look into the details
