Suunto Ocean SW update 2.38.42 (2024 Q4)
-
@Sharkhugger two option 1) you guys were really fast and fixed it for me… 2) I just messed up, didn’t look good enough and it was always just there so I posted this for nothing.
There is a custom option and I just used it. Loved it, great feature, please do not change that.
Compass after last update works perfect.
got no complaints at this moment love using it.
Maybe look into the trimix thing but, for now great job! -
@CunctiSimus Long press the middle button

Very disappointed that we have had no update for 5 months… I am very loyal, but my trust in Suunto is starting to go. The excuse that due to the safety testing of the dive software part of the os, updates will be less frequent, doesn’t stand scrutiny (testing can be simulated, automated and segregated, I know i large software development programs … And I bet there are plenty of community volunteers willing to be beta testers).
History tells us that the watch will only be supported with updates for a handful of years, before sunnto desert it… . So how many updates is that anyway. New capabilities and enhancements for every other watch models, ocean supports all the same capabilities and sports, as well as diving. It’s why I bought it. But no updates for those apps, very disappointing …
I have no faith. I feel deserted.
Change my opinion Suunto, win me back, and quick!? -
@Jamdog2477 I don’t get the disappointment.
It is FOMO?
Ocean is getting exactly the same features that are introduced for the adventure watches. Just a little later.
Plus more (as dive related features are updated as well).
The model is not left along the way, it is just lagging a bit.In the meantime, there are S+ apps coming in at the same pace as for all other models.

I think that Suunto was very clear from the beginning that Suunto Ocean will receive all updates but later than the other watches because the Suunto Ocean is a dive computer and needs extra time and test compared with the other watches.

I’ve to admit that being a bit nerdy I’m always impatient to look for new updates,
nevertheless I believe that I would be way better to follow the Ocean update policy also for all the other watches, that would reduce bugs and users complains… -
@Stefano-M64 I do not know exactly which are the protocols and regulations that a dive device should fulfil but I can imagine that are more strict than the ones of the sport watches (this means that are more costy too), we are talking about devices your life depends on.
Regarding the software, I can imagine that is the same than in the sport watches + dive functions, same platform than SV and SR, and I also believe that if Suunto could, they would release the update at the same time than the other watches.

@Jamdog2477 I was a loyal Suunto user for a few years, I changed it to Polar and for 3 years I used a new watch (Grit X and Grit X2), my wife has Pacer, my daughter Ignite3. I got used to the lack of updates
but I prefer Suunto, which I returned to, to make updates less frequently but without errors. If it appears 1 in half a year I will be happy, only one condition without any bugs and checked for functionality and efficiency of the system. -
There goes the 6 month mark and still no updates.
FOMO, we’ll yes, I use this watch for all activities and am disappointed that I am not getting any updates to those as the other watches are.
They say that the watch will get the updates just later… But how much later? 6months is more than 6 updates behind… With no commitments from suunto as to the cadence, I look forward every month to see an update and get a hint as to the potential frequency for future updates that that might indicate, but we are now 6months in and no sign… So yes I am disappointed! -
@Jamdog2477 maybe it helps if you don’t wait too hard.
Then the update will arrive as a positive surprise
Ease your mind.
