      Hello 🙂

      My Race S has arrived and as I’ve gone through setting it up to match my 5 Peak I’ve noted a couple of bugs I thought worth reporting.

      Firstly, when creating new sports modes in the app they aren’t showing up correctly on the watch in the initial activities list (swipe downward from watch face). I deleted some of the original entries but when I checked on the watch Badminton was still showing even though I’d deleted it. When I then went to setup some new activities I found the last one I created before checking on the watch would be missing but instead there would be a duplicate of one of the other activities. For instance, I created a ‘walking’ activity with a label of ‘with maps’ but instead on the watch I had 2 copies of the ‘Run’ activity with the label ‘training’. I can “fix” things by going to any activity and then changing the activity by scrolling down and selecting an alternative from the (correctly showing) list. When I then go back out to the general activity list everything shows correctly.

      Secondly, I went through and deleted suuntoplus apps I don’t use and added a few I do use or would like to use. As I ‘removed from watch’ / ‘uninstalled’ and unflagged and then flagged and added to watch various apps in quick succession I found the App UI slowed down progressively until it crashed out. This happened 3 times while I was working with the suuntoplus apps. I don’t know if this is more an app issue or a watch sync issue.

      Thirdly, I wanted to flag that the alert/notification for an upcoming meeting is showing with the ‘call ended’ icon. That’s the orange horizontal receiver icon with an X below it. I would not have expected this icon to be showing.

      Lastly, which is more of a minor annoyance, when you change watch face the highlight colour keeps resetting back to orange.

      I’m on firmware 2.35.36

        One further bug I’ve noticed, just to add to the list 🙂

        When you disable navigation (set it to ‘Off’) the setting isn’t remembered between activities for the same activity profile. I have a ‘training’ running profile I use for my structured workouts and every time I have to go turn off navigation as I don’t need it for structured workouts and don’t want the map display in my cycle of activity screens.

        I can understand if other nav modes aren’t remembered but off vs on should really be remembered.

          @far-blue I have the same issue, not remembering settings for same activity profile, but for the battery setting.
          Am I correct in assuming you are using a custom activity profile?

            @far-blue only some of the activity preferences have a semi-permanent state, others (such as the navigation) do not have a state outside the activity profile itself.

              @isazi navigation not being remembered is a bug I think, it’s been mentioned many times, this was introduced a couple of firmwares back, this used to work 🙂

                @herlas as far as I know, it is intended, and making it something that is remembered has been proposed internally.
