@sky-runner I saw your post and I made a +1 to give a chance to be seen by the Suunto developer team. You exactly right about Polar. If many segment start from the same area, you can refuse them untill you find the one you want. Also, one the segment start, you can see a person icon who run on a segment line, you can compare with your previous PR icon also moving. So it’s mean, you can see in a quick way where you are between you and your PR. Very easy and clear. Polar will send me a new watch (my previous one add a problem). I’m thinking about sell my Suunto.

and an update: the issue was the watch itself. Got a new one, which works flawlessly. It was not a settings or software issue probably, but hardware

@Brad_Olwin thanks Brad. I was hoping to get away from that. Had to do it several times in the last few months. Ugh. Better take screen shots of all my setting etc.

@Seybothula any bluetooth HR belt can be used with these watches. One thing to watch our for is whether the particular device transmits R-R interval data (like the Suunto Smart Sensor or Polar H10 do) or just HR snapshots. R-R data is required for ZoneSense to work. The only feature Suunto watches only support with Suunto Smart Sensor is the capability to use the sensor’s memory to store the HR data while the watch is out of BT range (like during swimming).

Here is my feedback concerning the touch screen (also came from Garmin): Pros: there is a lovely ‘minimal’ mode for a wake up gesture. It is just great, love it! entire dynamics in switching between wigdets and scrolling works just perfect for me. Navigation/maps in sports mode is implemented incredibly good. It works way better and more responsive than in Garmin. Cons: as pointed above - no tap-to-wake option. I really hope this will be updated soon! also compilations are not equally responsive on all watch faces - I suppose this can also be fixed in next updates.

OK I found the “Problems”: To disable the Notification sounds I needed to change two settings: Control Panel -> Settings -> General -> Tones -> All off Control Panel -> Settings -> General -> Tones -> Alarm -> Vibration I just changed the second one … bit confusing. Setting Control Panel -> “Aways on display” does keep the display on, but the WatchFace nevertheless changes to a very minimalistic one … bit confusing. And also bit confusing, there is another “Aways on display” setting here: Control Panel -> Settings -> General -> Display -> “Aways on display”

@JousseG I just had the same problem as you, did you get it fixed? I use Suunto race with HRM belt decathlon

@James-Eastwood Welcome and yes, have to wait for TSB, and keen the questions coming!

@2times4 hey. I am doing similar ones. My setup is: Before starting in “excersize options” I would go to intervals and setup it like: Repetitions: 5 Interval: Distance 500m Recovery: Duration 00’30s After I start and done with warm up/ etc I would go to “Intervals” watch screen and start my intervals. After I am done with one iteration I reser the intervals from the same screen so it is ready again. I get my rest and do it again. Not super ideal, but works pretty alright for me.

We need the same for the vertical, just a tide watch as the old casio’s, you dont need internet or apps, just know the max and low tide, the watch calcule for itself

@far-blue very same on Android. Kill the app and restart fixes missing audio. it’s a cross platform bug!

@2b2bff thanks for the advice. it worked

@sntors Before creating custom modes its worth mentioning that the sports you use more often get sorted automatically with the latest one being first in the list so say you use 4 sports theses 4 will be the first to show in the list. Only the first time you need to scroll longer till you find what you need.

@suzzlo the odd part is that there are suunto plus apps for reading di2, connecting smart glasses, connect e-bike and what not. But having a cadence and speed sensor from garmin - that is not going to work.

@isazi Sweet! Thanks! I’ll be looking forward to that firmware update!

@brechtvb thanks for your reply! i got the Race S one week ago (to replace the Vertical titanium that was too big - with that one I never had this problem). Thanks for the tip on the strap, I will try to replace it to see how it goes, usually when I’m indoors I wear it very snug and don’t move that much… but we’ll see.

@Catherine-Brozzetti Elle est étanche 50m, c’est à dire pas beaucoup… J’avais peur au début, mais finalement je surf et je nage avec sans soucis.

I’d rather correct the altitude manually if you know your altitude. It’s faster and more accurate when you know your reference point. Anyway, about barometer you may need to be more focused on trends more than exact value at time.

@racesuser my measurements are pretty successful too… See below 2 swims, one year apart, first with the vertical, second withy Race S. Difference is marginal… [image: 1750313161083-img_2795.jpeg] [image: 1750313161134-img_2794.jpeg]
