Is there a way to get a light background on the activity screens?

I can't easily see HR or pace or time/distance remaining (or anything else) in activity mode during the daytime.

Even with gesture enabled, there is a pause before I can see the activity screen, particularly when it is sunny. The situation is not ideal any time, but particularly when doing intervals. (Worse when on a track which has no shade at all.

The problem is expressed repeatedly here:
https://www.reddit.com/r/Coros/comments/1ncicav/how_can_i_keep_full_brightness_always_on_during/ There's no solution on that thread.

I think if there is a way to set a light background on the activities screens, the problem would be a bit less onerous.

What's the best way to make the watchface visible when it is in standby mode?

When my Pace 4 goes into standby mode, it dims and displays the time in outline rather than in solid, filled numerals. The date disappears entirely This makes the time difficult for me to read.

The outlined numerals are part of every watchface I've tried. Setting brightness at Max doesn't change the brightness of the standby screen.

I know that using gesture backlight can take the watch out of standby, as can hitting a button or the dial, but I often wish to glance at the time or date, e.g. discreetly when in a meeting or without taking my fingers from the keyboard.

Does anyone know whether

1. the Run has a race pacer for any distance other than a marathon?

2. One can upload a run via wifi, i.e. without using the app.

Thanks!

Wouldn't it be great if, when the watch battery is low, there was 1) a warning on the app? 2) a warning on the watch face? 3) a warning on the select a workout screen? 4) a warning once a workout is selected but not started? 5) any time more than 1.2 miles into a ten mile workout? or 6) even more than 90 seconds before the watch ends the workout?

Or even shut down music before ending the workout?

Especially when there are well-document charging issues with some watches?
