@jamie-bg
maybe they can still use it in few cases to check if anything gets critical 🤞

@jorgefd78 no. The specific talk we had above was for a special build of the watch.

To be clear , distributors and fieldtesters get a special hardware built (same hw but special sn etc) and those are controlled by SUUNTO and Google as dogfood devices.

All other retail watches are on the same ship

@flypg - seems a bit weird, but then S7 is all about choice.
Part of the reason for buying S7 is take advantage of the fitness suite and having the always on data tracking screen (while still getting up to 18hrs of tracking life), especially as you have the active HR zones which I find very useful to help me keep the right level of effort in my activity tracking.

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos quick question, do you know if the power data from stryd will finally sync between ambit and suunto app? So far the info can be visible only on the watch…but it is strip out syncing with suunto app. sad!

@bulkan Ditto. I’ve votes too. Seems a no-brainer, especially if you regularly read the forum as lots of people seem to have multiple watches.

@repayc said in Suunto 7 not updating:

I have the same problem. I bought my watch last week and its still running the first software. Anytime I check for an update it says up to date. I’m slowly getting annoyed and I am thinking on returning the watch.

I know your frustration…I bought my watch last Saturday, and wasn’t able to get it to update until this morning. I just kept trying here and there, and it finally worked for me today.

Hello! I noted that if I follow my procedure, some field are lose, like:

Total Training Effect TSS(hr) Recovery Time among others

Exist any other way to not lose this or to the watch/app calculate these values again based on the new “cutted” activity?

As you can see I continue forgetting to stop my activity after training… 😭 😬

Thanks!

@brad_olwin said in 24/7 tracking not synced in SA anymore:

before an App Store release. To clarify is this restricted to iOS or is it occurring on Android as well?

Issue is fixed with new public SA release on iOS.

@flypg Sent you a PM

@olymay Thanks a lot for the power save tilt tip. For some reason I missed this option when I initially set up my watch (maybe because you first have to uncheck the other option.) I also changed the display brightness from medium to low as I don’t see a big difference, at least in the winter. This increased the battery life from ~36h to ~48h average, some days even more. That makes a huge difference for me. I can forget to charge the watch some day and still get 2 nights of sleep recording. Or I can go on a trip for a day without the need of carrying my charging cable. I have several third party apps and get a good amount of notifications, have 24h hr tracking and sleep tracking on. So I’m pretty happy now with this value. Needless to say I don’t get this value with outdoor activity, but with 1-1,5 hours of indoor sports I still nearly get 2 days. Obviously there is really a lot of movement throughout the day that activates the display without actively looking at the watch.

@olymay said in Sunto app on galaxy watch:

I love Android on phones, but on tablets it just needs to die

I’m actually quite hopeful that Google’s renewed interest in tablets will lead to better experiences 😂. Really like the Tab S8+, although can’t justify it’s price at the moment.

If it ran ChromeOS then the price would be almost palatable. Almost.

Android could run well on tablets (Apple make it work with iOS) but Google doesn’t seem interested. Even this recent renewed interest probably won’t be enough to save the market.
However, some good quality hybrid devices running ChromeOS and able to run Android apps, now you’re talking!!

GPS and OHR worked really well : https://beta.quantified-self.io/user/88tGXoxa0YOtAw07abZo8jK8mN93/event/3cPQA91MbTn2CvY9nukbwvqsE5BRQodXKmw79U2Pe41tGmy

Just got Rungap - it’s very cool! One question for other users: any idea why an export from Garmin into Suunto, does not show the time in heart rate zones in the latter, even though it does in the graph?

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos true!
Just if you want the live data. That would be another choice - maybe too much for the devs 😁

@kurko the wallet app is updated constantly by Google.

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos Great job! Thank you 🙂 👏

@nigel-taylor-0 only thing I want from the routes feature of the app is to say “make me a 10km (ish) circular route starting at the following position.” 😋. Now that would be sweet when in unfamiliar places.

@ratisboner said in Suunto 7 - problem with (fused) altitude:

that’s exactly the reason to return it. I see, there are S7 witch do their work, but there is also another one who has the same issue. I want to be on track, not spending my time looking for solutions, maybe with the help of assistance, maybe by resetting the watch, maybe by analysing and testing, maybe then the problem is fixed, maybe it comes again…

I’ve the possibility to return it within 30 days. Im goint to return it, and give another one a try - I hope ist only a problem of this watch and I’m sure, this is faster than the assistance.

You are doing the right thing, I do believe your watch has a hardware issue now. My altitude has been identical to my S9 for 104 exercises since I had the watch in the early fall of 2019.

I managed to have a couple of runs outside before all this quarantine stuff started. After that the calibration at the treadmill became a lot better.
However, I am still lost with regards to the outputs.

Treadmill run count:
Treadmill: 10 KM
Suunto App: 12 KM
Google Fit (after sync with Suunto App): 16.69 KM

Before Google Fit I thought that Treadmill count would be the source of truth. However, I am not so sure anymore.

I assume more outside runs should level off the difference, or it could just confirm that treadmill is wrong. But the difference is more or less substantial so far.

One more thing to try is a run with only google fit.

@Jamie-BG I understand.
Now the S7 syncs to Google Fit including the track and full data only after the update.
Let’s see if this holds true also for those missing activities from before the update.
Will see.
