@larrybbaker Thank you a lot!

@Greennorth it’s up to Suunto to decide to issue a firmware fix, or not.

Since I have a watch with oled (previously a garmin forerunner 965, now a race s) battery life isn’t great. With my usage of about 7 hours of gps activity I have to charge every 3 or 4 days (with the suunto doing it slightly better than the garmin and is now almost 5 days) Don’t know if oled is the cause (don’t have aod), the more complex gnss system (I really have no need for dual frequency gnss, but if I select a slightly less accurate setting I also loose maps), the added, complex calculations of training and recovery scores (which I really have no need for and frankly don’t trust. I already disabled sleep tracking which improved battery life by almost a day, but which also disables hrv, which I might have some interest in. Obviously I disabled blood saturation measuring) My last watch with great battery life was a garmin forerunner 935 which I had to charge once every 2 weeks (until garmin introduced a nasty bug that always used the highest gnss settings regardless which setting you choose) That last option is also an option that the software isn’t very optimized or contains bugs. Maybe I should try and disable raise to wake and see what that does for battery life.

@rémiP Same situation for me. My guess is that updating the app itself and/or the descriptive texts for the Suunto Plus appstore doesn’t require any moderation - while updating banners and/or the screen does. No idea why.

Ldive A lot of us have had problems with the app and bluetooth sync, Somehow it looks related to language settings on the Nautic and phone, i’m putting all in english and had problems with my phone when in Dutch. After setting all on english, sync works flawless. So make sure they match. Start sync and the app should give you a green checkmark almost instantly when the Nautic is near and switched on.

I’ve introduced a new setting for user weight. While reading from the watch user weight value appeared to work, it was causing issues when starting the SuuntoPlus app with any non-default rider position.

@Pigeon101 i had the same problem. but its like they say. just tap on the message and it disapears.

Hi, @Montrod et al. While I know this post was from a month & change ago, I’ve come to be disappointed in the Race 2. I purchased a Race 2 Titanium at the end of March as an update to my original Race Titanium which had been demonstrating flaky battery life—unresolved by the Race 2. The lower profile of the Race 2 is quite nice, as is the improved charger setup, but, apart from that, I am unimpressed. The all-black aesthetics (even on the Trail Ti model) come across as too generic, almost cheap, which I grew to resent with the titanium model’s higher price point. Further, notifications on the R2 would just “hang” and require manual dismissal via depressing the crown. So, I’ve purchased another Race Titanium (I had gifted the first one to my son) and am attempting to sell the R2 through Facebook—but with no success thus far; Suunto is not a popular brand in this part of the US. TL/DR: Save a few bucks and go with the original Race.

@thailon I made one for my race. Haven’t tried it, but could fit for Vertical as well: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:7108194
