@Egika Hi, I’m also waiting for Suunto to get moving and expand its range of applications dedicated to kitesurfing!! Today, nothing is offered and there is no way to connect your watch to the surfr application.

I got a Spotify update a couple of weeks ago, but offline playback wasn’t available at first. However, when I checked again yesterday, it had appeared (no new app update, so it must have been a server-side change). It’s very basic, but it works. I downloaded a playlist and did a quick test—it seems fine so far. One major limitation I’ve noticed is frustrating: you can download a playlist and play it, but you can’t shuffle it. Playback has to be in order. You can pick where to start, but it will continue sequentially. I like shuffling my music so I never know what’s coming next. Later, I’m going for a short 7km run and will test leaving my phone at home to see how it affects battery life. I usually don’t listen on this route, but I’ll turn it on with the volume very low

HI, Was wondering if there was any new info on this topic. Use case for me is quite simple. I sometimes forget my watch… and am happy that the Suunto app can record activities. But I can’t seem to get them over to the watch to be part of that data store. Thanks Tony

@ryhoage I’m not sure, but maybe this is what causes my reboots on Pixel 6 Pro too. I never found my phone after reboot, but since buying Race, it happened occasionally. And it seems, it happens after someone is calling me. At least, this was maybe the case of the last reboot. I saw incoming call on my watch, just click “X” on watch and after five minutes I found my phone rebooted. It happened on Android 15 and also now on Android 16.

@larrybbaker I did as you told me watch reset, and still won’t connect…:( iPad and Suunto see each other via Bluetooth, but when I try to pair nothing happens

@Mika-Hirvaskari Sorry, I have an Android Phone.

I had exactly the same experience with my 7. It had one new screen under warranty but was out of warranty by the time it burnt the second time. When it refused to stay connected to my phone I called it a day and bought a Race which is fantastic, and twice the watch the 7 ever was. I think it was a misguided product from Suunto, but everyone makes mistakes and knowing what I know now I should never have bought it. Everyone makes mistakes though, and more than happy to buy another one.

@Mika-Hirvaskari said in Suunto 7 lose credit cards & information added to Google Pay: Anyone else having problems with Suunto 7 and Google Pay in a way that the cards added to Google Pay just stop showing in a watch (says some error message about the lost connection and asking to login to Gmail) and could not be used or added again before making a reboot to factory settings and doing all the steps in setup including adding card information and calling a bank to accept the verification request? This started when receiving new credit card and adding it to Google Pay. It worked fine for some time eventually ending to mentioned error message, when trying to use it. Makes me appreciate payment services that just work without all these headaches. Been checking out PayKassma, and they seem to have a solid, hassle-free approach to online payments. Worth a look: [link removed] I ran into the exact same issue not too long ago! Thought my Suunto 7 just decided to retire early. Turns out, the problem was with Google Pay struggling to sync properly after adding a new card. What worked for me was removing the card from Google Pay on my phone first, then restarting both the watch and the phone. After that, I readded the card on my phone, made sure it was verified, and only then tried adding it to the watch again. No factory reset needed, thankfully!

@Raul-Raymond said in Start by playing music or video: Hi All, After i receive notifications, and i don’t read them, my watch shows this text instead of displaying my watch face: “Start by playing music or video from any app” If i swipe right it get’s back to my watch face but it’s frustrating to always get rid of that text. Any ideas how to get rid of that? You can try closing background media apps on your phone, disabling media controls on your watch, or restarting the watch to fix this issue. Also, check if media notifications are set to persist.

@OferBB may be your language settings are en_us and not en_gb?

@Egika Hi Thank you for the information, but the application you are writing about does not support Suunto 7

@pilleus thanks
