Software updates? Do you think we'll get customization features?
-
Hi all!
Proud owner of the Vertical that I got for Christmas, but I’m seeing no mention of how often or when software updates roll out. Is there a roadmap of sorts that I’m missing?
I’m curious to know as I’d love to see more watch faces and customization. I love the watch overall but I don’t know if I would’ve bought it knowing there was such a small selection of watch faces or even customization.
Anyway, there’s my question and two cents from a first time suunto watch user!

Suunto usually releases two big updates during the year, sometimes more but it depends on the model. I guess Suunto Vertical and Race will have one soonish, some hints here and there in the forum and other places.

You have bought an outdoor watch and I do not understand how watchfaces is a high purchase requeriment or a must. I understand that would be nice to have more watchfaces but what I seek in a watch like this is accuracy, durability, performance, navigation, reliability, … but watchfaces??? Anyway, I have read in another place that Suunto is working in more watchfaces. So, lets see what will come.

The answer is simple: no.
In summary you bought a wrong watch if you Want more watchfaces.

Well, that is your opinion not mine

Enjoy your fast runs, young runner!

@Daytwon-Ceschin @zhang965 about watchfaces I understand that Suunto Vertical is a sport/outdoor watch (I like this !!!) and not a simply commercial smartwatch, but when you buy a new digital watch (like analogic watch… )you expect something new… about 6 of 10 watch faces are the same of S9B!

I would have liked 6/7 new watch faces and someone similar to S9B or more beatiful and not the same…I believe more can be done and I hope in the future update !!!

@matteo_000 Suunto’s behavior has been in the past to add a new watchface for each new watch, that in the past was specific to a watch but nowadays usually also available for other watches, so it is quite normal that Vertical and Race have most of the watchfaces of the 9B

And if @isazi logic is correct a new watch face will arrive when a new watch is announced.

@Brad_Olwin upss! Is there a hint hidden in your words?
