    @dimitrios-kanellopoulos awesome. I guess there’s nothing to do but wait for it then :). Thanks for the help, and thanks for building such an awesome free tool (quantified-self).

    @Saketo-Nemo said in Aereo mode on S7: @isazi @Brad_Olwin since you are a tester in the field, do you have any anticipation to give us, without breaking your NDA? I leave that to @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos as I enjoy being a tester and do not want to be “released”:). I can tell you that Suunto is working on improving the S7 experience but that is about all I am willing to say.

    Calendar Events: At the moment GA is broken when it comes to creating calendar events, and the Agenda app is pretty dismal, however Appfour has come to our rescue with a pretty decent app: Calendar for Wear OS (Android Wear) Pros: Can see all of your google calendars. Easy to install (can tell it to install from web browser on phone and on watch - note phone app is just a settings and manual app - uses your calendar). Only permission is calendar. Free version is view only. It works. Premium version allows you to create events (was £1.20 for me - which isn’t even the cost of a coffee). Its a good looking app and so much more functional than agenda. Can see full details of all calendar events. Cons: it only does calendar events, so reminders you need to view/add with GA or reminders app (GA broken for adding, and often would put under GA reminders whose notification has never worked). Note: to create events you will need to ensure that its is always running in the background of your phone, so you will have to set to Do Not Optimise like your Phone Wear OS app. Failure to do so will probably has prevented me from being able to set up an event.

    @NickK yes 100% agree. I think it might be updates too… I got my new textile strap and tried it today - no change at all same problem. I actually think it is picking up cadence as you suggest, not heart rate - I tried a few faster, slower paces including fast downhill where heart rate doesn’t go up… So is there a fix for this?

    Having persisted with the Suunto 7 for over 6 weeks, I think I am calling it a day. Someday, when it actually works I might give it another twirl. For now, it is a flaky, amateurish attempt at a sports/smartwatch combo.

    @Daniel-Osojca You can’t reply to SMS messages on iPhone as this feature is restricted by iOS. Only Apple Watch can do that. While we are at it: you can’t get full messages either (they will be truncated based on notification text limits), can’t execute custom notification actions like deleting an email or marking a task as complete, and can’t install any legacy Wear apps that came as companions to the phone counterparts… These still exist, yeah! There’s a number of other limitations too, sadly none due to Google and all because of the functionality Apple in their infinite wisdom decided to lock down.

    @mff73 no, actually the S7 was just my backup while the S9B was in service and I did not manage yet to resell the S7 I need to do that before a potential successor of my S9B is announced

    @Brad_Olwin, please, have you succeeded to find a third party application to manage interval training with your S7? Thanks!

    Hmm, not a massive fan of the new Play Store to be honest! Its basically the same as it was, except with some extra mess in the form of distracting tablet buttons that could be a lot more transparent than they are. Oh, and a wonky curved clock, in case I forgot what time it is from looking at the watch face 5 seconds before opening the Play Store. I wonder if there should be a WearOS setting to configure ‘hint’ colour (like on the old Windows Phones) across the whole OS. It all feels a bit jarring going from the subtle yellow tinted Suunto Marine watch face, to suddenly getting these bright white buttons. Across other Google Apps, they seem to have their own tint too…most apps are Blue (Timer, Alarm, Messages etc), Keep Note is Orange…wouldnt it be nice to set a Theme for the Watch?

    @aeroild - and I think that is one of the biggest issues with Suunto’s marketing around the S7 - not clearly defining what it is, which I understand is difficult, because it is so close to bridging the true fitness watch gap.

    For me TP premium wasn’t worth it, bought and asked for refund, right after I realized I wasn’t even going to be able to have my Peak performances tracked/detected because for example, my Suunto watch (according to them) recorded 5.01K or 4.99K instead of 5K (which on Suunto,Strava, RunAnlyze showed 5K) and there was no workaround, (not even from backend) that was a bad start Everyone looks for different things in the products I guess, if Suunto ever integrates TP plans somehow, I might look at getting TP Premium again

    @Egika Good point … Although that’s only one of many possible negative factors affecting GPS device compasses. I’m pretty sure mine are offset by heat, fog, nearby sneezing and Weltschmerz.

    @Saketo-Nemo Thank you for that. Also did a brief comparison to the S5 with the smart sensor chest belt, and the result was quite impressive[image: 1589987633465-capture.jpg]

    @jamie-bg I’m not sure about that, as if it was just down to Google sending out via Play Store then all devices would get it at the same time. Instead, some have it and some don’t, and some have only half (my S7 has the new weather app, but still limited to five tiles). It is still part of the WearOS app. YTM will be completely separate and when it goes live will be available to everyone all at the same time. I do agree that the timescale could be anything from days to months (or longer) as Google have a long history of announcing something shiny and new but not releasing it for a long time. Ah well, we sit and wait, as usual.
