@WEM_t don’t use the route sync in the app? Where is the problem exactly?

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@SlaSh what settings are you talking about ?

As I understood your quote, suunto will remove route sync form movescount app. So I have to use SuuntoApp (or cable).
Did I misunderstood you?

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@WEM_t yes you did I think. Sorry for that.

Nothing is removed from movescount.

But if you choose to sync routes with the Suunto app only then the movescount sync will be stopped. With a warning asking the user if that is OK.

That is because having 2 systems to sync a route or settings etc can potentially mess up the watch and make it hard for users to understand the flow.

Thx for clarifying. I did get this actually wrong.

I saw the warning…it was quite prominent and I chose to ignore it, I found out there was a reason for the warning. As soon as the elevation transfer is fixed in iOS (next update I hear) I will switch my routes probably to the app instead of MC.

@Brad_Olwin
How do you plan to switch ? Recreate your routes manually or wait for an import option ?

[SlaSh]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos hr zones, language, time and date and everything else outside Sport settings.

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@Brad_Olwin brad the ascent thing for routes is fixed. Not 100% sure at the version you have but definitely in the one to come.

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@Mff73 good question

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@SlaSh hr zones , metrics and time and date are stored on the watch. No need for that AFAIK. But I have to test this once. Just to make this clear , we are not talking about removing the watch. Just reset via suuntolink. That does not clear pairing with your account. The stuff you mentioned are in the cloud and restored after the reset.

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos by stored on the watch I mean in a separate partition.
That partition survives resets and fw updates. In short after a reset you should have the same as of reinstalling the fw. The hr zones etc are not lost.

[Brad_Olwin]

@Mff73 I rarely use the same routes and they are easy to draw. I tend to decide where I want to go a day or two before, draw a route and go. I often go off route because I change my plans…just fun in the mountains.

[valdis830]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Are you sure? I do not want to try it, but I remember that with hard reset everything is deleted. Then the start screen appears to set the language, etc.

[SlaSh]

@valdis830 exactly like out of the box

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@SlaSh you might be right. I’ll test this tomorrow.

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@SlaSh sorry. I am an ass and you are correct. I am using another way to reset and I though suuntolink force factory did not override the user settings.

By bad , I am.sorry and an ass.

[SlaSh]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos no problem, another thing for improvement, whole watch backup via app would be awesomeness

That would be more than useful feature. I had to do the factory reset once, and doing all the custom settings all over again was a nightmare

I think that all have been said at the beginning of SA

Wait for new features eagerly, btw, route sync is cool…
