This has been requested on and off since the introduction of the watches almost 3 years ago and has not changed, even with the introduction of the new watches, so I would not expect it to change now, but you never know. I guess the assumption is most people know what day it is without looking at their watch so it would just be redundant information.
I hope this helps, please let me know if this answered your question. If it did, please mark it as a solution so others can look for it if they have the same question.

Same as the day of the week. The focus seems to be more on the watch as an athletic device than a day-to-day watch. The addition of the daily tracker in the new models moves it more in the day-to-day direction but it is still primarily designed and marketed as a sports watch. I have not seen any mention of it on the forums but you never know what be developed.

It is the spell check error!
My last Casio watch had this feature and it was indispensable. So angry this feature isn't included and I would really appreciate tomtom adding this.

I am not sure what previous TomTom you had, but I have a Runner, a MultiSport and a Spark and none of them show the day of the week. Perhaps it is a Nike watch that was co-branded with TT (but was designed and sold by Nike)?
I had my watch strap break over a month ago and have had a new one on back order at officeworks for the same time. I finally cancelled the order and bought direct from Tomtom so hopefully I can actually wear my watch sometime soon and know what day of the week it is too!
Pending an update from tomtom of course.

There is no indication this is coming., so you may be waiting a long time. They are trying to keep the screen uncluttered and I imagine the assumption is that while people may not know the date they generally know what day of the week it is without needing to look at their watch.
I just read another nearly year old feature request for better alarm management (more alarms, setting based on week day...) Simple feature that much more simple devices has had ages ago. Nowadays I have modern device on my wrist that contains computer capable of any function I could like and beside sport tracking it is as dumb as my analog watches when I was a child.
It is very annoying and I thing it is a reason that slay the product down.
Yes I am usually aware of day of week but it is feature that nearly all digital wrist watches has. There is plenty of space on display. The big time digits could be little bit narrowed if needed. I would like to see week number under date (where is space for it and for day of week acronym) but after I have read forum I am demotivated to ask any feature at all
I can't find any positive reaction but only excuses why not possible to do anything.
// My wrist strap break after cca one month of wearing. It looks like a design flaw.
Pls do not answer that I can go and look day of the week at my wall calendar. We all just wish all the best to TOMTOM company and try to help making its products perfect.

Any news regarding permanent Battery Indicator (as changeable option) at main screen?
