There have been loads of good suggestions for improving structured workouts in this forum including:

giving the next stage info and a 5 second countdown rather than changing step without warning giving feedback when you are outside of a step target such as hr or pace (like you get with normal targets) the option to see the details of a workout before selecting it the option to see the next step before it activates

This suggestion is another really good one and I hope the developers are seeing this feedback.

All credit to them though, Suunto’s implementation for structured workouts is actually very good internally. Having read the info on what you can do with structured workouts they are really flexible. You can control the data fields shown per-step (including the ordering), you can conditionally skip steps or repeat steps and you can trigger the progress to the next step based on a number of criteria. It would be great if more of this was exposed in the workout builder and used by third-parties - and the option to start with a third-party workout and then modify it would be very cool.

One thing that might help specifically with knowing which interval you are on could be to add the lap count field to one of the other data screens. I know it will count the recovery steps as well but at least it will give you some indication.

Hi all, i have a similar problem: i decided to turn off my suunto race watch for 2 days and then turned it on to record a swim activity: this activity is visible in my logbook on my watch (as the last activity I have done) but the overall week count is still at 0h, and after many syncing operations with the app, the activity is still not uploaded. Might this be a bug? …

To avoid having to activate heart rate monitoring 24/7, wouldn’t it be interesting to be able to manually trigger a sleep monitoring phase? Example: I go to bed at 11 p.m., I go to the sleep menu and trigger “Start sleep tracking” and the watch knows that it can activate HR to track sleep. The same goes for naps which are sometimes not well detected otherwise. It would also preserve the battery by not tracking heart rate all day if the only use is for sleep tracking.

Do you have an AGPS file in about? Is it current? If you sync immediately prior to exercise and a new AGPS file is loaded, it can take time to unpack. How many times has the route been bad?

@Mff73 said in No vibration:

Don’t you have an option to put your body in extended DND mode ? 😜

Used to have it before the last update dropped but sadly not any more…

🏃I’ll get me coat😀

@Giuseppe ho giocato un po con Strava… Strava ti lascia fare live tracking, ma putroppo tu hai bisongo cominciare una attivita con strava… dopo loro mandono un sms a scelta tua (per me la molgia) con un link per seguire.

@Todd-Danielczyk Great idea with the phone!

@far-blue I understand, thanks for the info.

@surfboomerang thank you for checking.
Bug reported

@seanvk titanium or steel?

Update…I discovered why!! It doesn’t depend on the WiFi connection, but on the smartphone’s GPS sensor, which I usually keep off. Without GPS sensor, the weather widget is not updated. I thought that in any case the SA would adjust itself at least with the last known position… but it’s fine anyway

@Vemee sure.

@renton82 grazie mille,gentilissimo,immaginavo

@Mff73 I have 16Gb in the watch only and plenty in the phone. So, this can save me in an unexpected place

@tiago ok so you are saying pace zones are indeed used to classify the workout. That would indeed be the only way for this to have happened, as I have had runs with higher AVG and max HR that were still classified as Aerobic

@SuuntoR Very nice color 👍🏻

@Schoda
no
why would it look “much” smaller? they’re the same diameter

@josephblcd
Snap to a route has a different meaning. You can refocus the map just by taping on it. If it doesn’t work due to a rainfall then you can hold the middle button to enter the menu where you can navigate the map with the buttons and then again (to exit the menu - it’s a workaround). You can also use the Custom battery mode to disable the touchscreen for a map. So it is possible to do what you mention in the last sentence.

A chance to get a watch from Suunto? how? where do you ask for that?

If I am not mistaken, I had read on the forum that they could ship a replacement watch (by paying a deposit, of course). Try contacting support and ask for confirmation

Thank you. I’ve taken an alternative solution: just ordered a Garmin Epix on Amazon.de at a very good price (450€). When I have my race back I will decide what to do…

Are you pressing buttons to change screens? Or it does this by itself? The camera is moving so I’m not sure. If it’s doing it by itself, you should send your watch to service because I believe that is not intended behavior.

Interestingly, when I use my Race on my spin bike, the display stays always on.
