[image: 1777194333458-img_2053.jpeg] [image: 1777194333470-img_2054.jpeg] Some more helpful info I thought about, I read someone had a similar issue two times at the same distance each time. For me time and distance are different in each case, so I am not sure if it’s related to his issue or not. This is the issue I mentioned https://forum.suunto.com/topic/15116/watch-reboots-mid-activity-at-ca-9km-when-using-gpx-navigation/2 This also seems to be related. https://forum.suunto.com/topic/14527/crashes-in-the-middle-of-an-activity?_=1777194428329

@isazi said in [Race S - 2.50.28] Nap detected during recorded sleep: so report it again if it happens with the new firmware And there I am: Nap accounted to yesterday: [image: 1777121428413-059d473a-6019-4348-bf94-fa20ad027bb8-image.png] And tonights sleep: [image: 1777121473999-6f04e699-6aba-4c5e-bbc2-09d3a18430a6-image.png] Fair enough, I did wakeup because of some noise around 23:55 - as seen by the rising HR. But the sleep tracking didn’t even registered it as wakeup… I think, somebody should look at that code on a higher level as there seems to be something broken in the overall logic…

@halajos said in FW 2.53.2 Countdown timer vibration: @sindavide yes, I also experience it on the Race 1. The last beep, which should be longer, gets interrupted, therefore sometimes shorter or not even audible. By the way, having 11 beeps is weird to me, I’d prefer 9 short and one long. Yes, same here. Plus alarm in the morning interrupts without pressing button and no snooze.

@sazzas i asked for this feature to be improved and take inti account our cycle phases such as pain atc…

In my case, with the Vertical 1 Titanium Solar, I’m confident the issues started with version 2.43.12 released in June 2025. I had been monitoring battery consumption, which increased from about 3% per day during normal use to around 7%. It’s not a dramatic spike, but it reduces battery life from roughly 21–22 days down to no more than 14–15 days. Wouldn’t it be enough to check what changed between version 2.40.44 and 2.43.12?

Coming back to this thread, I now see the restriction “while the Walking activity is active.” First, I don’t think this is an important metric for “live” use. The reality is “step count” is a basic metric that is most useful when you don’t have access to other metrics. For example, a cheap pedometer you attach to your shoe can give you steps but likely won’t have GPS to measure actual distance. In almost all cases, your actual distance is more important than number of steps. However, there is a related metric, cadence that can be relevant. This is “steps per minute,” and in running the advice is to typically around 180 spm which is what I tend to go for, although some prefer slightly different values. Search “ideal running cadence” but here’s a starter link: https://us.suunto.com/blogs/blog/tracking-cadence-heart-rate-and-pace-while-running So I’d look to cadence for “how effective are my current steps” and distance instead of total steps.

@suzzlo said in Downloading map takes a very long time: @muurain said in Downloading map takes a very long time: Suunto’s cloud service that throttles the downloads but… you can download maps for the mobile phone that are much faster… so… if we think, same server is delivering them… this should not be the problem… Anyway, I can live with it You’re right! I didn’t even realize that, even though I did download mobile maps too And yeah this does seem like an understandable constraint of small smart devices. I too am happy to have the convenience of WiFi downloads, even if they are pretty slow compared to bigger devices. My old Garmin Fenix maps downloaded way faster, but it was via USB cable and a PC. But given the analysis here, the original post does now sound like a WiFi issue or a bug. Maybe try downloading maps on some other place or WiFi…? If the download speed is considerably less than 1GB / hour (or ~2Mbps), it should work faster and there are not many broadbands this slow.

@Hashly-Iian but isn’t this an easy to implement Upgrade which would be very heplful! All data and technical basis is already given. Maybe with the step from beta workout plans to the final version…hope so.

@rwmastel0 this should be fixed with an update

Should be fixed in next release, being currently tested.

So, UPDATE: 1. Not able to set alarm clock per any weekday weekly. For example: every Monday and Wednesday at 7AM, Tuesday-Thursday-Friday - 8:00, Saturday - 8:30. The issue I’ve described above: alarm is super critical function if the device has it: if I set it - probably I rely on it. If device is unreliable - I’m afraid to use it daily. Alarm should work even if battery saver is ON, even if there are other conditions: just high priority! - Implemented! 2. Workout plans are joke: I can set the interval training and… it’s second to nothing: the watch does not really help during the intervals, just showing them as laps, that’s it. For example I’ve intervals with specific HR Zones and what can the runner expect? Yes: the watch should vibrate when you are out of your Zone (by the way this is soo good on Coros: they have different types of vibrations for various positions in zones!). So for now actually missed opportunity for the workouts to work much better. I’ve to watch at the watch all the time to keep up with my training plan. Also I’ve to remember the plan, because interval training does not actually show any details about the planned parameters (zone/rate/pace for example). - tested more and it’s actually kind of there: you need to go to “guide” screen (which is LAST!) and the watch shows the details about your targets.

I think the same… unless there is a good reason (like new options) the watch should remember it’s settings… Regarding feeling - I left it enabled after I found it will get reenabled after updates. If you are asked, just press the crown without selecting a line and it will skip the question…

Hi, Seems the problem was that I finished both activities in Z1. Today I’ve pushed more ending in Z2 and it appeared!!

@snow said in New firmware 2.53.42: You need to start the activity Ah! Yes… That works. This was incredibly convoluted… Thanks. Hope my bumbling around will help other users. Edit: Everybody is talking about the Menu only accessible from the Map screen itself (the 3 lines/hamburger icon). Edit 2: And it works even without any Route loaded. Great!

@freeheeler said in Recovery: watch and SA differ: @emkei me too… but I found a workaround: in movescount suunto promoted the phone as an extended watch display: that’s what I do. I use the watch mainly to track and record and look at the data in the app only. which data is correct? I don’t know. but it is where I see a long term trend. and I don’t want to worry Yes, this is probably the only way - but still awkward as Suunto is the only company I know having this issue. Unfortunately, this was not the only reason I left - there were differences between watch, iOS app and iPadOS in: steps TSS Recovery Resources HRV And sleep tracking was really off (especially if ready at bed, or working at a standing desk) The thread: Recovery watch & App

@Egika something I missed since A3P

@Egika Thanks for the help. I don’t know how I missed it

Hello Reije, I am having same problem with the suunto race s and the suunto smart heart rate sensor, in all the activities and having it on my wrist. The HRM conects and conects continously every 5 secons it is anoying

@sky-runner Something similar happened to me a while ago, due to the depleted battery of my armband (Polar Verity Sense). much better behavior would be to automatically switch to internal HR. if I’m not mistaken, such behaviour is already included with the Suunto Run, and it would be great to have it.

@gliuk88 can you show an example? Advice: clean sensor more
