Daylight Saving Time Woes

[JebClydeNC]

With the changeover to Daylight Saving Time Sunday morning for much of the United States, had a couple odd bugs immediately pop up on my Suunto Run:

1. The watch didn’t automatically change time! I had to sync with Suunto App in order for it to change—which means its a good thing I woke up before my alarm, because I would have overslept since it would have gone off an hour later than it should have! I had my watch in Power Save mode overnight Sunday night, so that might be partly to blame, but still, not great…

2. The past two days the sunrise and sunset alerts have not triggered at all! I restarted the watch after I realized for certain it wasn’t working tonight, which will hopefully resolve it, but again, overall, not great…

And, yes, I have synced to Suunto App, and connected to GNSS since the time changed…

@JebClydeNC Strange. I had no issues but was wearing a Race 2. Time changed and alarm worked. What phone, that is more likely the issue as time is acquired from SA.

@Brad_Olwin iPhone 15, latest firmware’s and App versions. I can’t help but wonder though, two things I know compared to other suunto watches:

1. The software backend for the Run is completely different from others—evidenced by single-note tones (instead of the delightful “Suunto Song” for alarms), music, and plenty of other bits indicating its its own breed of software

2. This is the first “spring forward” since the release of the Run—so it may be possible this bug hasn’t been noticed because it wasn’t possible before now?
