Votes do matter! - Raise your voice - movecount.com after summer 2020

As an Ambit 2 user, I ultimately need Moveslink and Movescount to communicate with my watch to upload/download data, routes, changes of sport modes, customisation (applications, custom sport mode). This was part of the “contract” I entered into, and still is mentioned today when you look at Ambit 3 for example (tracking, training analysis, route planning).
I could start doing training analysis and route planning with a 3rd party open source (pc based) application, all be it as a web service.
But I still have to get the the data to and from that application (and I do not know if there is currently something where I can plan or upload routes & do training analysis at the same time).
Further more: The application should then support the upload to other social media account such as Strava, …I only learned about these development very recently after the e-mail of end of April.
How to stay updated and show Suunto we would really miss a Movescount(-like) based service? -
Also watch here in this forum for new updates from Suunto, their website also has the newest updates early.
You can write an E-mail to Suunto, you can post things on Twitter or Facebook, you can vote here for the web application as well. (See link in my post.)@Maarten-Thys said in Votes do matter! - Raise your voice - movecount.com after summer 2020:

@Maarten-Thys And one more thing, posting the same post in various threads doesn’t make a difference. You can be sure your voice is heard.
There will be more news and updates coming in May, so hopefully all your questions and concerns will be addressed. -
The competitors offer the same services, but for free. Why should we pay for the service? additional features? best performance?

@jthomi Thanks for the info, and sorry for that. With the amount of post, random venting, … it wasn’t really clear where to look or now where my vote would be heard; I can’t really believe the vote is “only” up to 450+ and not 1000+.
A few reasons could be:- people don’t know where to go
- they just put +1 at the bottom but don’t go to the top of the thread to vote
- they have given up (I hope not)
- or are there really not that much concerned Suunto users out there?
But I understood May should bring more clarity, certainly for pre-Ambit 3 users as myself.

@Maarten-Thys Hopefully May will bring some more clarity, yes.
I think you are right when people only put this +1 at the bottom, maybe we should give a FAQ where we explain how to vote for posts/threads. If it doesn’t exists already, have to look into it. -
Absolutely not!!! I paid over £2500 on Suunto products over time and the software should be included in the price of the product, otherwise a Suunto it’s no more than a Fitbit or other cheap Chinese crap that costs 5 times less.
If things keep going in this direction the only Suunto I’ll keep is the DX, for the rest Polar seems to be the favourite choice. -

If they get me some offline solution for messing with the ambit range I would pay.
No monthly annual fees for something that sometime can disappear, just like they wanted to do with movescount.
THey already have openambit, work with them and all get happy. -
hi didn’t you read the announcement? All devices will still be able to sync via cable
