SOFTWARE UPDATE 2.33.12 - Q1 2024

@Dušan-Ković I can tell you that most (all?) testers that use the watch on the bike reported that this is not a great idea, and that at least it should be possible to configure this (even if the default is that during activity the screen turns off automatically). I do not know why it was implemented this way, I can only tell you that me (and others) will continue to tell Suunto that this needs improvement.

How can we make Suunto change this back? If this is not fixed in the upcoming two months, I will stop using this device and demand my money back as this change basically ruined my use case of the watch - and it worked before. So Suunto basically broke functionality for me.
I won’t accept that.

@gizmo only for skiing ? It seems there is no problem on running

The same for all activities

@gizmo on which watch ? I never saw that

9PP: The pedometer works terribly. When I lie in bed and move my hands, it counts the steps. Let’s say this was the case before the update. A cheap watch measures better than this…
And during weight lifting training it cannot measure the heart rate well. I’m disappointed.

@Adamhert avoid writing the same message multiple times, thanks.

Antoine

@gizmo is there any conditions to meet (or to avoid) this problem ?

@Adamhert
can you please stop posting this over and over ?
We got it.
There is no reason to copy paste this everywhere.
thanks

@gizmo
As far as I remember, in those threads it’s said that the issue is known and under investigation.

maybe it’s not an easy peasy fix, give them time to analyze it.

although I am not a fan of these metrics, it seems that the latest update has improved them, I noticed it because while driving it was counting steps all the time, now it is much better.

It is no surprise that you had bad readings with the WL, I always use a chest strap because with all the watches I used there were problems.

@Olaf-Gottschalk If there is an option to rollback to previous version, that’ll be nice. Or have the ability in the app to download earlier version and install it on the watch. Sorry about the issue you are having.

gizmo

I wonder why the official version is different from the one here on the forum? Why isn’t all the information available on the official website?

Νίκος Σουρμελίδης

Dear all.
My only problem with the watch is WHR. I can’t believe the metrics that i have. I’ve tried to use a gel but with no success. Any suggestions?
And a suggestion for me coming from coros. Please add just “running” option to structured workouts. I mean if a made pyramid workout, and every step i named it “interval”. This will be very helpful.

Thanks

Mw S9PP works perfectly! I like the improvement of the latest update.
Just a question…(after some months I am still a new Suunto user): do you always restart your watch after the update? Is it necessary? I have never done it and this is the third software update…for that reason I am asking! My apologies in case of double question.

@Adamhert Can you tell us why don’t you buy a cheap watch instead then? These are mainly outdoor watch. And if your main concern is how many steps you do during a day then why do you need outdoor watch in the first place? Why is it so important to know exactly how many steps did you do? Is there some awesome secret training method based on the exact step count? Can you please share it with us so we can learn something new?

isazi

@gizmo because some nice people like to share more details with this community.

isazi

@misu763 the watch does restart on its own to install the update, you are not supposed to restart it after.

@Zdeněk-Hruška another stupid comment form you. Could not resist to post. I don’t care about steps, but it drives me nuts to have such bad algo. Remove step count from watch if you cant make it work. Just a gimmick… Let me guess, your comment will be something like ‘is your watch making you faster/better, just enjoy outdoors’ or some common bullshit. Let’s all sell our watches lol. Rant over.

SuperFlo75

After some days of using the new firmware, I did‘t find any new problems until today. But I think, some things are not solved with the new firmware…

There is still a difference between HRV in the watch and HRV in the App Widget… in the App, the HRV is one ms higher than in the watch… every day
Can anyone explain why charging from 7% to 99% needs about 60min, and the last 1% from 99% to 100% takes more than 30min?
I know, these are really little problems, but it seems crazy? What do you think?
