I live in the Alps, where the weather in the mountains can change drastically very quickly. So the “Storm alert” is a welcome feature. Of course, this does not mean that there will be a storm or severe weather, but that you should be more attentive and observe your surroundings even more.

I don’t know how it works on an ocean, but on my race s the direction is auto detected. If the route has tbt alerts, those are applied either way the direction I walk/run/bike the route. If I have reached the destination, the route is still available. No need to go into menu’s the choose a direction, just start. On my 2 previous garmins, this worked different. I had to choose in advance which way to go (and on a round trip it wasn’t easy to see on the map which way to start) If you followed a route the other way around without setting it in the settings you had a course error warning on your screen, all the time. When you selected the route to be followed in opposite direction you would loose tbt alerts. And if you reached destination, the route disappeared from your screen. Way to many times when I wanted to follow a round trip, the stupid watch concluded I reached my destination before I even stared and the watch ended navigation. So you have to go into settings and select the route again. I understand your wish to follow a route in opposite direction, but don’t envy garmin users. Envy suunto users with a running sport watch.

@Łukasz-Szmigiel good to know

@Maxime-Bouvier io ho lo stesso problema e ho già postato un’uscita con Garmin coros e Suunto. Secondo me è un problema firmware perché per il primo anno è andato benissimo. Ora da circa due mesi ha problemi.

I had the same error on my last dive. Just after the start for no reason this happened. I thought it was because I have my old D5 as a backup computer and both are reading the same data from one tankpod. But obviously it was not as this has not happened before. I had to end the dive cause my drysuit zipper was tiny open but after this on the second start it did not happen again. Thinking mabye to make the D5 as the maincomputer… [image: 1781629194471-1000037569.jpg]

Indoor climbing could also be used for caving activity

@fondueaufromage Yes, they are. The watch also comes with a 2-year warranty. Thanks for being willing to share your experience and information with me.

@Nelson-Diogo I don’t have a Suunto chest strap. I think the problem with mine is a combination of my stryd and a polar oh1+ (although I think the heart rate sensor is irrelevant) The stryd causes some odd behavior when I do warmup exercises at my athletics club. While doing planks, my watch buzzes due to some signal from my stryd (is my assumption, the buzz is real, the cause is assuming) and after that my watch loses connection to my heart rate sensor. Last couple of weeks we didn’t do that kind of exercises and I had no problem with disconnecting heart rate sensor. I suspect the problem is in the watch firmware. It either cannot handle certain signals from my stryd or it cannot deal with disconnecting sensors.

Ah…I see there are several similar threads…perhaps the admin can link them together or at least reference each other? 3 crashes on Vertical2 in 3 weeks. Posted the details in one of the other threads (in the Vertical 2 section). Logs uploaded and info sent. Hope this gets sorted soon.

Hi, same issue on my Suunto 9 baro !

@Nic-Cooper-Lewis From the first day of using Suunto run I had problems with bluetooth. I have been using the watch for a long time. The watch always has some bugs, regardless of the new update. Even after this last update, some problems are still present. In the beginning, the heart rate measurement on the watch was very bad. Recent updates have improved this. I almost don’t use a heart rate monitor because it doesn’t connect to the watch anymore. Let me praise something. That’s the precision of gps. I was a Garmin user. But I don’t want to go back to Garmin again.

@tobstar Do you have Suunto + Climb running? “Climb your watch will automatically detect the uphills and also create laps of them”

@Benjamin-Weppe if you install the app directly on the watch without publishing it to the store, it will be deleted on the next sync.

@soryp ! Hi WhatsApp Image 2026-06-16 at 11.41.48 (1).jpeg [image: 1781603270726-whatsapp-image-2026-06-16-at-11.41.48-2.jpeg] [image: 1781603270736-whatsapp-image-2026-06-16-at-11.41.48-3.jpeg] [image: 1781603270745-whatsapp-image-2026-06-16-at-11.41.48.jpeg] [image: 1781603270763-whatsapp-image-2026-06-16-at-11.46.50.jpeg] Same parameters, NDL and TTS effectively turn to 0 but not the same result… Etrange !

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos great feedback and reassuring, thanks for your feedback. I have to disagree slightly on the route maps and 3d maps though, I understand your feedback about how they are supposed to work, but for example if I do a simple dive along a reef A to B along a route we dive 10- times a month for the last 9 years - why would it appear on the app each time completely randomly, in completely different shapes, like intersecting triangles, circles, each time it is so vastly different and wrong that it looks like it has no idea at all. I honestly have not seen one single map yet that is remotely close to accurate and this is with all things being followed, starting on dive screen, locked gps, ensuring dive end is set to 1.5 mins just after o get back on the boat etc, and then the gps points are simply very wrong compared to where we are on a map. I’m not sure if this is because we are in the Philippines and some setting is wrong. I have tried to make sure all settings are correct based on research, but having no luck at all with this feature. That said - two more - the compass - u mention above about setting it in a car park or something ‍️. Of course we set the compass once in the water, at the surface just before we descend, and it randomly cancels the bearing, sometimes does it, a few times it hasn’t, for no apparent reason. And yes the keys are locked always after compass set. This is simply feedback which I hope can be fixed - it 100% has some weird bugs with this. I think u addressed most of the other points, so thank you! I have one more: The tissues don’t reset in the normal fashion of any other dive computer after we finish diving and turn off the computer. For example I dive, take 2 days off, come back, and turn on Suunto and the tissue compartments are all the same as just after end of last dive, as are CNS and OTU. This is an absolutely crazy thing that it is not counting down ‘off gassing’ when the computer is switched off, thsts like having a watch doesn’t keep time if u don’t wear it. This must be fixed. I’ve never seen any other dive computer do this. Happy to send screenshots comparing computers if needed. My Garmin shows at this point no nitrogen load, no CNS or OTU load as it’s done its job (also switched off), and my Suunto reading 50%+ nitrogen load after two days off, and same with OTU/cns. Please fix this also. P.s. I know u can reset tissues manually deep in the menus but this is not how dive computers work for normal operation, you shouldn’t have to reset them manually each time you use. Thsts a great feature when renting them out to different divers to reset - it’s a dangerous information feature when it’s not doing it by itself in all other cases. All that said - thanks again for replying. If these several features are sorted and the app becomes more diver friendly I think it will start to take over the market. Thanks.

@maszop makes sense, but I wonder why the watch stops recording/calculating its estimate of calories burned while connected to the Karoo, I don’t expect it to be in my gpx recorded in the Karoo, but I would expect the watch to sync its calories from during the activity to the app.

Having worked on this kind of subject (inertia, heading, pressure, etc.) in the aeronautical field, I understand that the calculations are made based on the information described in another thread. Nevertheless, to be able to appreciate the quality of the restitution, it would be necessary to have other known and fixed elements such as remarkable landmarks (spots with known GPS coordinates for example). In my case, I have entered certain points in my Nautic and it would be good for them to appear on the 2D and 3D map so that we can quantify the errors and give proper feedback to the developers, rather than the simple question from the application, which asks if the restitution of the trip seems correct … If you need a hand with the GNSS recalculations and the Kalmann filter, I can help if needed.
