Outages and Suunto

About the Garmin attack you can access to your data via file system in a computer and sync it to another services. (Runalyze, quantised-self…)
The Suunto watches use Suunto app, if you don’t have internet connection you can upload to Suunto app and when you’ll have connection again it will upload the data.
This is going
-
@Bulkan thank you. Does that mean my data is available on the app if I have no internet? I just bought this Garmin watch but the idea of having to cloud sync is not good for someone like me. I can’t visualize any of my activities or historical data since the app doesn’t keep it in a local db.
-
Right. Offline sync is already here. You can sync watch via bluetooth with no data avaible. Your activity will be there in app and uploaded to suunto server when you’ll be back on line
-
@Saketo-Nemo great! So all data exists on the mobile app and a copy is uploaded once back online? I don’t want partial functionality on my phone app and device when off line.

@bowpay
Well, maybe route builder won’t work
-
@sartoric no, you can create a route on the watch itself. Hard work, but it is possible…

With Suunto watches ?
-
@sartoric no with Garmin, weren‘t you talking about Garmin watches?
-
@moe67er nope, it was more of a comparison, as the OP asked about how the situation between online/offline is with the Suunto app.
-
@isazi Sorry, my fault

I share with you concerns that you might lose your all excercise data like Instagram can delete your virtual live in a matter of seconds - but i guess question to Suunto over here should be more how do they protect our data - and in case of any sucessful attack - what they could do - to secure personal data, and what they do to prevent that from happening ?
Solid Statement from Suunto of their practice and what kind of measurement they do - as a proactive approach.
Do they seperate clients accounts personal data from sport activity measurements - etc ? that would be a huge game changer for Suunto business… - i guess ? Or maybe i’m wrong - people just want technology - they don’t care about security ? -
@vgnjhd Right now if I were a company I would not state anything that could signify myself. Who knows how hackers choose their future victims…
