Suunto app UX/UI survey 27 June 2019

[johann.fuehrer]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos “Apple denied the update and forced us to implement things no user ever requested”

Maybe with a web frontend such could have been prevented (sorry, could not resist)

[JorgeFD]

done!

about heartmaps I have an idea: while navigating in the app the user has the possibility to search for a random route: “I want to run in this zone for 10 km a 500+” The app will search for routes and offer to the user

would be great!

I’m not an expert with programming at all, but I’ve heard that there’s a technology that you can setup a web page and it works for all… desktop, mobile browser etc… and then there is something that just looks like an app but in fact is a simple browser with only functions to operate the web page… maybe Dimitrios can name this kind of technology?
…but anyway I think Suunto is already quite far gone with the development of the new SA and they have decided to go a certain way and it is “too late” to turn around. I’m happy with what I have seen so far and what the future might bring

that sounds like komoot… I would be inn for this for cycling during vacation abroad

[cosme.costa]

Survey done!!

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@johann-fuehrer well its not like that. Apple has no clue about what services we use its all about the app we use and submit to them

[Saketo Nemo]

Done. Always nice be part of there stuff. Hope will helps and that POI (with editable name, visible on watch) will have priority

[malcyway]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos I can dig it! Never thought POI’s would excite me so much. I am digging the direction SA is going. Now if we could just take all that and wrap it in “Dark Mode” and I’m good!

[JorgeFD]

@TELE-HO I’ll take a look! Thx

[freeheeler]

@jorgefd78
just as an example… i would rather have something similar integrated in SA

[Dušan Ković]

Done! I haven’t used POIs that much, since SA didn’t showed them well. Just a question, during exercise and navigation is it possible to see nearby POIs on the main navigation window?

@jorgefd78
…because I don’t want to end up with 10 different 3rd party solutions

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

Komoot is great Gaia also

[Bulkan]

Done. Let’s give feedback people!

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@TELE-HO one app that does this exactly is FinalSurge FYI.

However, at this moment the tech is not ready to support all these BT syncs etc via a website inside the app. I agree its a good solution (knowing the technical side) but not ready yet for big companies.

There are also other solutions that are cross platform as well.

[johann.fuehrer]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos somehow related: in the next MacOS “Catalina” iPhone app will run also on the desktop.

Q1: Will this be true for SA as well and will it scale to the display then?
Q2: Does/will SA scale on an iPad and use the whole resolution or does it just upscale?

[suzzlo]

Great mockups, let’s see we can see working

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@johann-fuehrer we are looking into this. I bet we will make it work as you said.

[Bulkan]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Related with @johann-fuehrer questions:

If I install iOS 13 will work suunto app?

The beta public is out and maybe I’ll give it a try.

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@Bulkan no clue atm
