This year, I’ve already run 3 ultra races, each about 60-65 km (6-7 hours). Every time, I share my location via LiveT (Android, Pixel 8).
I ran the last one on Saturday.
On every run, after a few hours, my location stops being shared - it disconnects from the watch or something else happens. I don’t have time to figure this out while I’m running fast, so I just ignore it, but this is a major flaw for Suunto.
I use the Vertical 1.
I thought maybe it was because Android was killing the app in the background… So, as a last run, I made sure that battery saver mode was turned OFF and that the app could run in the background without any restrictions.
It didn’t help.
When I noticed that my location was no longer being shared, I opened the LiveT app on my phone and saw that the button was turned OFF.
I tapped the ON/OFF button to turn it ON, but it couldn’t connect to the watch anymore.
I think you’ll need logs from the watch or the app, but if you’re not a developer, it’ll be hard to fix this.
