Effectively. I never had a look at this dumb content 🤣

hi didn’t you read the announcement? All devices will still be able to sync via cable

@Olli2709
For any news, don’t hesitate to go there 😉 i check for each new versions.
https://forum.suunto.com/topic/3761/photos-not-shown-properly-in-sa

@zvonejan ,
yes, and no 🙂

Some photos are in ST databases, and not shown in SA --> bug, so i hope there will be a fix (there should, this issue has been acknoledged as “Known” 🙂 )

For photos that have not passed the transistion, you may be right, 😞 they might be lost.

@rama-delarosa
and please see few post above, the answer is in this exact post, with screenshots

GPX files from Suunto App are quite heavily processed, some datapoints are dropped while others are added through interpolation, so when calculating speed from resulting GPX-points, that level of noise is kind of expected.

Though what I find interesting and bit unexpected is that level of granularity - how points are gathered around 3-2 values and forming vertical parallel lines on a chart. The way you calculate speed makes this more prominent - time difference between most points is 1 s, so if speed is calculated only by considering time & distance between current and previous point, it’s basically a dataset of distance differences between points. When calculating speed at point n through points n-1 and n+1, output would be smoother and granularity does not pop out that much, though it’s still there.

Had to see if this is something specific for GPX-generator used by SuuntoApp / SportsTracker, but GPX from 9P was only one with such a strong granularity. Nothing to worry about ofc, just interestingaf and I’m sure it’s more visible in GPX than FIT exports.

Your gpx with few different takes on calculating speed, speed_between_prev is basically same approach that you took, seg_get_speed uses n-1 & n+1 for speed at n and and speed_rollin_15_mean is centered rolling average over 15 points:

If I’d be interested in “raw” data, I’d certainly look for ways getting closer to dataset generated by the watch itself. So either a fit-export or perhaps a json data that’s used as an input for SuuntoApp service and stored at <internal storage>/Android/data/com.stt.suunto/files/smlzip/ on your phone.

Any relatively recent installation of gpsbabel should handle fit 2.0 just fine, at least 1.7.0 works or me with SA fit-files and it was released more than a year ago. Though for up to date reference tools one should head to https://developer.garmin.com/fit/download/ , SDK includes FitCSVTool.jar for converting fit to csv.

And there are at least 2 perl modules for fit with at least some userbase. But why aren’t those in cpan, I have no idea nor interest to find out. Though popularity curve for the language during past 10-15 20 years might have some role in this …

@P3LLTI3R Ach, stimmt, bei den anderen Smartphones ging es ja nicht, hoffe du kannst sie jetzt besser testen. Auch wenn noch viel Arbeit in die App muss… 😉

@Jim-Anagnost
sportmode customization is done in SA, not in the watch… did you do that maybe? It should give you a warning that you can’t connect to MC though…
maybe a softreset could help?

There is API support for Steps etc. Not sure about 24/7 hr as its not “officially available”

I am the author of QS but I have not thought about importing or exporting that data, as many users tend to thing about them as uselless.

@NeilPope Correct, the battery specific modes are optimized. In the custom battery mode you can set some of these parameters. Let me know if you need more information on that.

@Agustin-Gonzalez-Perez-Corral said in Why are Suunto peddling Movescount in online marketing?:

@mbga9pgf And who wears the trousers in that relationship… 😉

No real Spartan ever wore trousers 😋 like some Scots

@sartoric no I am quite happy with MC, actually if they got rid of the App, and concentrated on MC, including enabling the apps feature for spartans, that would be perfect (- for me).

Workout tracking is not the only thing I am after (although its the biggest buy).
Prior to this I was on fitbit, and I had developed some pretty good habits around sleep patterns, other habits by monitoring my HR, etc … I don’t know how I am tracking on those anymore

You could also try bluestacks, my daughter uses it to play android games on her computer, might work with suunto app as well.

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos The problem is solved. I ran the .FIT file produced by the Suunto App through Fit File Repair Tool (https://www.fitfilerepairtool.info/) . When I used this tool a few months ago it failed to produce a file that could be used in Firstbeat Athlete. I ran it again today (after re-installing Fit File Repare Tool and MS Access) and now I got a good result. I am not sure whether the problem was in the software I installed, in a mistake from me or in a flaw in the .FIT file produced by the Suunto App in October. Anyway, it is a bit more work to get the information from the Suunto App to Firstbeat Athlete, but it works now. Thanks for all you help.

@surfboomerang said in The sad demise of Suunto into Apple 😞:

The suunto 9 does everything the ambit does except apps.

AFAIK there is no real structured workouts feature on newer Suunto watches. And as a “reliable” partner, Suunto decided to remove this feature and throw it to trash for A3 owners 😭 , except with Suunto Apps, which is something really different in easy to use terms function. 😒

So yes, when Suunto removes some valuable features on the Ambit line, we can see that S9 does almost everything that ambit does. 😐

@sartoric well Farmin connect is quite good web interface and customizable for your taste what info you want to see. Without web interface only fitness stuff can live, but serious sport guys can’t 😉
P.S. Fenix 2 still syncs with their web…

remove button does not work

Because those apps are still in use?

This also applies to your public apps, to remove those, you’ll first need to track down all its users and somehow force them to remove it from their sport modes. Deleting unused private apps works just fine.

I was able to keep a small number of apps before, If I wasn’t using them remove button would work so my app list would be more tidy. None if them are being used on a watch on any screens but I still cannot remove them.

@sebchastang you can complain, but replying in every post not to answer the OP, or help him/her, but just to complain is annoying to other users. You are not talking with Suunto, you are talking with Suunto users here.

I understand that it’s a bit boring for other users, but I think my answer is linked with the last sentence of the OP “I would like to continue using my Ambit2 without any restrictions, because it brings everything I need!”. By my post, I just agree this quote and answer suolaf that he is not the only one in this situation and we are all expecting solutions.

This forum is hosted by Suunto and I guess (as it use to be with other brands) Suunto sometimes takes a look to this forum to be aware of the most relevant thread / issues / complain, …

@André-Faria : I have already contacted Suunto, no later than last week, but the answer is always the same : “Please wait” or “bug correction is in progress” (regarding elevation issue with route creation on movescount.com raised more than 6 months ago).

Sorry again, I am not here to disturb in any way, I just write my feedback on Suunto app issues and ask for workaround to keep on using my watch.

You had luck, I didn’t get any answer.
But I will keep on trying.

As I told in another topic, after two emails and facebook chat and some weeks of waiting they answer me, in a very polite and open way.
At least it felt they are aware of the complaints and working on it.

"Digital services do evolve, by their very nature. It’s not really a matter of business, it’s a matter of being able to ensure that we stay up to date with the changes and trends of the digital world, and work to offer an overall better experience to the whole of our community and the majority of our users, in the present and in the future.

The features Suunto app has now and will have in the future are based on user feedback from the majority of our users.

We worked to make sure that, even with the inevitable changes that evolving digital demands require to our services, customers with Ambit, Ambit2 and Ambit3 watches could continue to use their trusted devices. We also know, though, that many people want to follow the developments of digital services and technology, and might be interested in upgrading to a newer device: for them, and in additions to our efforts enabling the use of older models, we have created the loyalty offer.

As for the issue with ascent and descent on Movescount is not due to any change on our part - Mapbox (the map provider) changed their API for access to data, and this broke the altitude element (actually, to be thorough, the change broke the entire map integration. To recover it, a quick fix was found that allowed us to connect to Mapbox to draw routes but damaged the altitude element). Considering that the web service - as a device manager for Ambit, Ambit2, Ambit3 and Traverse - is here to stay, our team is currently trying to find out what the best solution for this is. It’s taking longer than we would like and hoped to deliver."

from further conversation
“we really tracked the use of features on our products, and tried to deliver what was most used and important.”

For me it was a good communication.
Everyone on industry is struggling, we are getting delays, people sick, confinement, so lets calm and hope for the best.
It is important to raise voices, but also to provide valuable feedback and understand the other side, so communication can be efficient.

@pavel-samokha Thank for the offer!
I am now in contact with the American support (started by the chat, now by mail). They have not been able to fix the problem yet, but they are on it.
I’ll post here when they have a solution.

@margusl The MC download link finally reached my mailbox today 😀

@malcyway
I don’t know the S9B at all, but what I understand (I recently missed it to setup correctly in my A3P and then could not set it anymore from MC app) is that if you have an activity with changing altitudes (skiing, hiking, cycling, mountaineering) you must use altimeter for the profile. If you go sailing, swimming or cycling in the netherlands 😉 you must use baro in the profile. The watch then knows that the altitude is fixed.
With swimming (or in my case, surfboard paddling) it is not optimal for the pressure sensors recordings as every stroke you make is once up in fresh air and once maybe up to 0.5m below the water and there is a significant pressure difference.
