Outback Adventure (Vertical 2) watchface is public

[Jan Suchánek]

@Egika Any chance it will be released for Race 1 too?

[Mitch9]

Really nice one but unfortunately only two complications are customizable.

@pavel.samokha When you install this on the Vertical 1, you can see how awesome the AMOLED display of the Vertical 2 looks.

@Jan-Suchánek it is available for all watches that can install S+ watch faces, even the 9 Peak Pro.

@isazi I didn´t see it. Thanks!

You have to search manually in the app, not sequentially.
I don’t think it’s very suitable for MIP displays; it’s designed for AMOLED.

WF not available/visible yet for me under IOS 3.4 beta app

[runomatic]

@safari I had no problem installing it. What makes you think that?

Sure, it was optimised for the Vertical 2. It also works on the Vertical 1, but it doesn’t look as nice.

[OutdoorMan]

Installed, looks nice.

[OutdoorMan]

@Tieutieu same beta version, it’s there. Not one the front page where you see the latest WF, but you have to scroll and look for it.

I quite like it on my Vertical 1. But it’s a shame that I can’t see the date and altitude at the same time. The battery information is useless to me, and it would be good if I could set other information instead.

@Tieutieu alphabetical order, you should find it in the Suunto plus store.

Quite a nice watchface, but as usual, very few customization options.

I agree about the fact that only 2 complications are customizable

Moreover, the WF (which looks nice) is sadly messed up by the long name of the meteo location (nobody checks these details before releasing a new wf?)

@isazi Hi, I appreciate the watchface update for other Suunto watch models. However, Ithink that the V2 watchface available as “Outback Adventure” for the Suunto Ocean is having some bugs:

1. Instead of a white arrow on the default temperature arch below, the temperature is indicated by a black x on turquoise background.
2. The default arch below doesn’t allow any customizing at all.
3. The default arch on top, with sunset info, doesn’t exist at all (not visible/empty space) and can therefore not be be customized.
4. The only window that can be customized is the default day/date window.

My question Is this by design, or is the V2 watchface implementation buggy on the Ocean?

@M-O Ocean firmware is older than the other watches, maybe that’s the issue. Cannot help testing because my Ocean has a newer firmware.

@runomatic
What I’m talking about is usability.
Of course, it has its drawbacks compared to AMOLED. For example, the battery status isn’t displayed in colors.
But I wish it could be changed at the bottom like the top.
I made the top part step and caller ID. It changes with a single click, and a long click takes you to the widget.
But the weather is fixed at the bottom. For example, there could be a barometer and altitude here. A long click doesn’t take you to the weather widget.
Suunto always misses something

[Egika]

@safari how can you display caller id?

[M O]

@isazi Thanks for your quick reply. Could you please provide any info/timeline, if available, when the Ocean will get a firmware update in order to enable the full functionality of this watchface on the Ocean. The Ocean in general needs some love and attention as well.

Cheers

Yes, people do check. Sorry, I don’t like this kind of wrong assumptions.
