    Seems like the old thread got resurrected. My expectations are the same - to get the software more polished. I use map, navigation, and climb guidance features very extensively - every week, sometimes multiple times per week. In my opinion it continues to be a mess. Almost none of this stuff works flawlessly - that is unless you use these features in the most most basic and straightforward way. There is a large number of quirks and bugs, and unfineshed rough edges. I could easily make a list of probably 10-15 issues that I continue to hit on every long run including: The watch not following the navigation route as planned and jumping from one part of the route to another Navigation direction reversing - almost guaranteed at a turn-around. Also often the route is reversed right from the start. Climb guidance switching direction (going right to left), swapping colors (green for uphill), or just plainly not working correctly and showing me on an uphill segment while I and descending Climb guidance zooming working incorrectly or event refusing to zoom Light blue navigation arrows not being visible Off-route notifications when I am not off route and the watch shows me right on top of the route The above is what I could remember in a few minutes, but there are many more issues. If someone at Suunto took a comprehensive look at this area of functionality and made sure it offers a more polished and reliable experience for trail runners, with all features completed and working correctly, this would be the best thing for me to have in the next update. But in the last almost 2 years of owning 3 different Suunto watches I am continuously frustrated by the lack of improvement in these core areas of functionality. The only reason I continue using a Suunto watch is because there are no significantly better alternatives from competitors.

    @Elipsus no worries at all about the language — I saw a few posts in French on other threads so I didn’t immediately realize this particular forum/section is English-only. Sorry about that, happy to continue in English from here. Regarding the full discharge/recharge cycle: I actually already tried this exact process a week ago, based on advice I found in another forum thread. Unfortunately it didn’t change anything for me, the drain rate went right back to the same level afterward. I have been considering sending the watch in for service, but it’s no longer under warranty — which is honestly what frustrates me most about this. The watch is barely two years old, and this issue only appeared after a software update, not from any wear or misuse on my end. Has anyone had luck getting Suunto to acknowledge this as a software-side issue rather than treating it as a standard out-of-warranty repair?

    Still working. Battery consumption was high, now usually as always approx. 4% per day. Upper button nearly unusable as it seems that no signal is sent to platina. A lot of power is needed to push button.

    @colakovitz You just need it for the pairing (initial connection), afterwards not. Eats a lot of battery…

    I don’t want to start a new thread just for this, so I’ll try asking here. This year—that is, since the latest firmware update—I’ve noticed that when I swim outdoors, my watch doesn’t show the distance swum. I’ve tried both my custom sport mode and the preset one. When I save the activity, I can see the distance. But while I’m swimming, it still shows 0 m. Has anyone else had the same experience?

    @Matúš ok. Thanks for the info. Then I do not understand why vertical 1 and 9 peak have not received a fix for it yet. 6 months have passed and the watch is some times useless to use. Makes me really sad and disappointed

    @brechtvb Not, it’s not just you. I bit the bullet and bought a combi sensor about 18 months ago. For 25-30 EUR, this was a small price to pay to remedy my frustration In the real world it makes little difference: a full watch battery gets me 232 hours of riding with the pod, or 103 hours of riding with GPS in “OK” mode.

    @Wesley-Terrence It was communicated that the Vertical 1 will get updates, just later. I guess we have to wait… https://forum.suunto.com/topic/15021/updates-for-v1/64

    @Girts-Gudrits said: what steps I can take to fix it? You could reboot the watch before starting the workout by holding the upper button for ~12 seconds and see if that has an effect on map loading.

    @skobelev.np said: @tuxbuster hello! I have the same issue but in health see just workouts sync without any health Has it worked from the box for you? This is works fine for me: "I have a found a Workaround for me: i am Using „Health Sync“ to Sync Sleep and HRV to Apple Health. From Apple Health i am using HealthFit to Sync this HRV and Sleep to TrainingPeaks. " But currently I’m using my Garmin Fenix 8 more. It’s much easier and a no-brainer. I hope Suunto will fix this. If they do, I’ll come back to the V2 as my default watch.

    @babychai No no, never used screen protector. Suunto saphire glass is very good, no need to protect it with a weaker layer IMO. But I think it’s a hardware issue, watch is not in warranty anymore, but I can live with it, until Suunto Vertical 3 release :). Cheers.

    @sartoric No, no protector, suunto has the best saphire glass And always clean. Maybe it’s a hardware fault as @tieutieu and @isazi mentioned. Well, glad to know that it still working as before on some watches because the timing it changes on mine, sure looks like it was being deprecated. Thank you all for the clarification.
