can we add the option to remove " waiting for specific gesture to exit screensaver" message

[RapidSurge]

(Kindle Paperwhite 5, koreader April 2024 version)

It looks ugly to see the message " waiting for specific gesture to exit screensaver"when we wake up the kindle. We could add an option in settings-> screen -> sleep screen -> wallpaper -> postpone screen message update after wake-up. there are options like no delay, 1 sec, 3 sec, 5 sec, until a tap, and until exit sleep screen gesture.

I wanted to have the kindle to require the unlock gesture while not displaying the "exit sleep screen" message. Just the wallpaper, when the Kindle is sleeping and when I wake the Kindle up, the wallpaper should only be there. since I have put the screen gesture lock myself, I will know that I have to make the gesture, so I will do it. Dont want the message.

Thank you very much guys, for your hard work, really appreciate it :)

Thing is, if you accidentally press the power button, you have a cue that the device is awake (consuming battery power) and waiting for you to interact with it. If that was not there, you would likely not notice and needlessly drain the battery. That is a worse problem than having a message on screen for a few seconds.

That is what i think Frenzie would say.

I think I'd say you could effect the same thing popping it up after e.g. 30 seconds if that's indeed the case. ;-p

Edit: but on Kobo false wake up prevention should kick in by then if you haven't touched anything.

I see, I did not thought about this as I have a flip cover and the power button is situated in the bottom so it is unlikely that the kindle might wake up accidentally.

And the brightness level of the sleeping screen and the screen after pressing the button is different so if I see that the screen is turned on, then I'll know it. I carry my kindle in a laptop bag, since I don't want the kindle to be pressured by another thing, I keep my bag moderately filled so accidental button tap wouldn't happen most probably 🤔

I'm not saying it does or doesn't on Kindle.

you can also wake them up with magnets, if I put mine naked next to my iPad (in a rucksack), for sure it is on when I take it out.

that might be not necessarily noticeable outdoors, or maybe under other circumstances.

that's more like him.
