@dreamer_ I submitted a request to gain access to their smartwatch API. But it also seems that there is a non-zero probability that Suunto simply offer me to work for them

I fixed the issue, a few issues actually, and I wanted to share how i did it. I have notifications disabled for all apps by default on my Android 14 Pixel phone. All I did was enable notifications on the Suunto app and now everything is working. So that begs the question, why is Bluetooth functionality mixed up with notifications on Suunto app?

@Keep-It-Simple there’s nothing surrendered. Cloud storage is just the way this device works, as do many others. Get an older handheld GPS device if you don’t want cloud

Seems to be fixed in 2.37.34. No issues today on day of update. Fingers crossed…

@Umer-Javed Hello I saw this and I normally fixed it in the original post. get a look the idea was to have the next alarm to ring just when you scroll up I put it here also [image: 1725429532231-f369967b-3bee-482d-85d8-9c3081795aba-image.png]

@Nicolas-AULANIER 16Gb is plenty for maps… My wife has the Race (Steel / 16Gb) and we have the same maps loaded (I have the Vertical Ti / 32Gb). Although map sizes are different for different counrties etc. To give you an idea of how much you can hold with 16Gb. ALL - ITALY ALL - CROATIA ALL - AUSTRIA ALL - SLOVENIA ALL - NEW ZEALAND UTMB SECTION - FRANCE UTMB SECTION - SWITZERLAND The app makes it easy to download and set maps as needed. I quite like the approach. And the app automatically highlights the map closest to you, so you can adjust on the fly. The watch internal memory specified is only used for maps, so you can be confident that even 16Gb has you covered for even the biggest adventures.

@Efejota thanks

@Jan-Suchánek I have small wrist too, 165mm, and coming from mechanical watches (daily was 39mm with 11mm) I thought I would find the Vertical too big for everyday use. It is bigger but really comfortable. I like how the Vertical wears.

@Frederick-Rochette I’had the same issue with a fresh release Race S. Only way is to contact support to 2 choice. Sent it back to refound and buy one again. Sent it back to exchange. Bon courage !

@vinc14 Hi is this really the case that firmware updates can be enforced? I generally run away from any tech that forces updates vs letting user decide - as this is great segway to planned obsolescence. Is there a repository of previous firmwares? Can you use the watch without app activation? I am getting my Race Titanium tomorrow and would like to avoid jumping into the bad formware straight away.

@trotzendorff first of all those running metrics are only send over ANT+. But even if they would send it over BT as well, I doubt it would be implemented in Suunto firmware. Like the buffering only works with Suunto Smart Belt…

@g0mib0y this is happening to me too

@Stefano-M64 said in Matte screen protector: all depends on the kind of activity, if you do rock climbing, alpinism, canyoning… it’s pretty sure you’ll scratch your watch one day or another… Likely not many people here had a close “relationship” with a granite wall This. I’ve seen so many post on Samsung Galaxy watches and Garmin watches that has sapphire glass where people got a scratch or two asking how it’s possible. Sapphire do scratch too. Once it’s happened there’s nothing that can be done. Then again it’s less likely than other types of glass used on tech but still if the Mohs hardness is equivalent or greater than sapphire then it will scratch. You’re correct there too, high impact activities might give you a run for your money . But then again each to their own and everyone is entitled to their own opinion . I’m not too concerned and my use case was more to test the anti glare ability.

@timecode thanks !

I was looking for another solution and noticed that my Suunto app wasn’t up to date (I had 5.2.5 instead of 5.3.5). I updated it, and just a few minutes later, notifications started coming through again! Happy

After a night sleep I don’t get any resources filled out. I haved according to the watch 8.5 hours of sleep and I lost 1 % of resources during slepp, from what had remain from previous day. OK HRV was very low and I wake a few times, but still, lossing resources during sleep after staying in bead 8 hours?! OK, let’s say, maybe a medical condition, or yes stress, but even so daily I have inconsistent data and updates even in watch or app on Android regarding data of sleep, resources, efort estimation trend. I have the watch for almost 6 months, and it seems that Suunto it make codind test testing on the behalf and patience of the clients. Why to invest in to a team of code tesingt when the clients it doing so. Ok, I can understand that the data from field is more statistical good and reliable but the data server is on your side Suunto, and the software also on your side

@Mister-PYC no worries - the 4 !!! were maybe a little bit too much for an older news. No need to argue how old it was

@Tieutieu thank you! ️

@Andrea-Paissan of course - if they offer this feature that is important for you - totally makes sense. I can confirm that this feature is not anywhere on the horizon.

Yeah, this is different and I am missing it too… No idea why this was omitted from Race…
