@isazi But why? I’m not convinced by such answers. What is a good reason to implement this way? This feature is still available on older products, even though they don’t have the powerful hardware that new watches have today.
I don’t need many settings for daily activities, but when a customised option is offered, it should stay as I set it until I choose to change it.
When I customise my outdoor activities, I want them to remain the way I configure them, not the way software engineers decide, which forces me to check every time. That isn’t true customisation.
The bigger question is: why aren’t support agents giving a clear answer about this? When I asked, they told me, “You can’t change anything with the built-in outdoor activity; you must create your own workout, customise it, and save it.” Ok, I did that too, and that solution doesn’t work either.
If Suunto is promoting a customised watch, then it should truly allow customisation that stays saved for the next activity until we, the users, decide otherwise. It shouldn’t automatically revert to standard settings, making us check and adjust everything back to our preference each time.
