Always on Display - Touch Disable

[robintjong]

I just bought the Galaxy Watch 7 and already switched back to my Watch 4.

Here is the deal breaker. I want Always on Display enabled but for no reason at all, that means that the touch screen stays active. So having a timer for (for example) cooking rice means that a ruined diner is one accidental touch on the cancel button away

I'm returning my Watch 7 tomorrow. Babysitting a 1 year old convinced me. She knows that touchscreens move from her moms phone and she tried to do it on my Watch 4 many times, which of course didn't do anything cause little did she know, she had to press te button first. But with the 7... Well, let's just say I won't suggest this product to anyone with small kids. She dismissed an important email while she was on my lap in seconds.

I'm also considering returning the Galaxy Watch 7 I bought this week for the exact same reason! It's baffling how such a diving new "feature" isn't implemented with a simple option to toggle on Settings > Display.

You can see countless posts of users complaning about it, more than four months after launch nothing has been done so likely they don't care until reviewers start warning people about this so they don't buy it...
