@pablo-perez Does it work over the app?

@freeheeler Well, even though it might not be an easy think to allow edits for recorded GPS data, other tools can do. I think in the end the question is, how far Suunto want to go with their app/tools. I agree, the GPS-topic might go too far. Anyhow, hope is there. So if you can point me to existing suggestions, I will surely upvote those.
PS: Yes, the bike is very very nice. I can definitely recommend it (YT Capra)

@isazi Thank you!

Can you guys provide me (also in private) with links to activities that have this issue (and on which it is clearly visible) that I can share with Suunto?

@isazi Thank you. The watch was purchased in October 2018 so is getting old. I did however manage to fix my problem. When I restarted the watch the Active GPS setting was showing “NA”. I restarted again and the current date came up and worked fine this morning.

@rogge doubt it would be due to magnetic interference, think the issue is more around fused tracking which takes a fix every 10s, which is fine when you are walking, potentially hiking depending on terrain (not sure how well it works if vertical climb is steep). However if you using a bike, I am not sure it works to well, as you can travel quite a distance in 10s so if you are varying speeds etc, i can see it giving issues.

Try setting it to best (1s) and see how that does.

Also note that what you are seeing isn’t necessarily unusual as GPS while fantastic accuracy is only up to 5m. Watch antenna’s are tiny and often not pointed in ideal directions, and fewer satellite fixes (ability to select and use multiple satellite systems can assist i.e I can use GPS+Gallileo or another system for example) - as coverage depends on hemisphere and region, and terrain features, cloud cover etc can all make that worse.

While your blip (riding through the house) isn’t great is isn’t really that bad either. Your general track is correct, and would focus much more on that rather than precision accuracy which you are unlikely to get without using a device with a much better antenna.

@дима-мельниченко i see your point and can relate to it. the request to resend the watch came from suunto support. if it doesn’t work now, i guess i will have to deal with it.

@bradleyd this sounds like a suunto app bug do you have a link for the activity ?

@freeheeler Hello, I was on a tour today and the values ​​were right (reset the clock to the factory settings), there was a deviation of 10m on the first summit, 1m on the second and 5m on the third !! Thank you for your support! Best regards, Rony

@zavlak the S9 has sooo much more.
Color screen, touch, optical heart rate, etc, etc etc.
Just if you buy the model without barometric sensor, you don’t get constant altitude information.
And you won’t get it with GPS either.
It just makes no sense to switch on GPS for 15mins (it usually takes 12mins to get enough GPS samples for a good altitude reading), just to find you are indoors and there is no signal.
The impact on battery would be huge and the data bad to not usable.

It’s like you’ve got a BMW 5 with manual gearbox and complain it does not shift like your Daihatsu with automatic…

@Shrek3k thanks for the info!

@running-L It does sound like you may have a hardware issue, I have two S9s and they both fix very fast and rarely (I cannot remember the last time) lose a GPS fix during an exercise. It is possible when in areas that are difficult for GPS (deep canyon for instance). But, I did not get a GPS error when running a race early in March where there was a slot canyon. I would start a support ticket.

@Brad_Olwin thank you…I’m looking forward to your report. It becomes problematic when e.g. on a long bike tour does not start with 100%.I find it a little annoying to always keep an eye on the battery consumption… Well, let’s get some experience now… Still a very nice watch.

@D yes, I know. I was just making it clear that the GPS lost message was not something new introduced with this new firmware and has been there for a while.
