      been asking for this already and there are pros and cons loading a tiny map screen with additional data.
      I’m with you, I’d like to see my HR and pace on the map and I will keep asking for this.

        @Eliseev-PA What would be nice is to see the map and the time at the same time 🤣🤣🤣

          @Eliseev-PA I disagree here but understand differing opinions. Many, including me believe that HR is a poor indicator of RPE (Jason Koop included) and I would not want the map obscured with HR or Pace or Power. If it was able to be on or off, fine but I would never use it. I would prefer better upcoming navigation notifications.

            I don’t know where in the forum to ask this, but does anyone know if I can, when I finish the route one day, pause, turn off the clock and continue with that route the next day? Garmin users can 🤦

            I don’t know if this function exists in Suunto but it would be very good to do a route of several days and have it all go out in a row.

                @Brad_Olwin I understand your perspective on preferring a cleaner map without HR, Pace, or Power data. However, having some indication of my physical state during a race or training is essential, especially in sports with varying levels of load, like trail running. As a pacer, or for anyone trying to maintain a certain intensity or heart rate zone, it’s beneficial to have these metrics easily visible to adjust effort accordingly without the need to constantly switch screens, which can be quite annoying and distracting. If the watch offered customizable options, each user could choose what information to display, ensuring both our needs are met.

                  @freeheeler Actually, with Wikiloc on the Apple Watch, you get a large map with the telemetry data overlaying it with some transparency. So it’s really just a matter of design. The map doesn’t have to be ‘tiny’.

                    @Eliseev-PA A little serious folks, Suunto can’t even handle contour lines on the map, and you want some additional telemetry data on the map screen? 😉

                      @Brad_Olwin Garmin managed to implement this in multiple ways to please multiple differing views. You can have a full screen map without anything, or with overlays, or a smaller map with lots of data around the outside edge, or have half the screen map and other half data. It can easily be done and is very useful.

                        Sorry for the picture spam, just showing the options on the Garmin Epix Pro (maybe Suunto can get some inspiration ha). It’s what I currently have, with a SV in my cart on Suunto.com. Really tempted to pull the trigger and order it, but there are just some things I’m waiting for to get added before I will feel comfortable (and also maybe waiting for a new Suunto watch that won’t dig into my wrists). I have Garmin fatigue despite how good it is 😵

                          Agree that this would be a good feature, and I’ve asked for the same. How I would use it - if I feel I’m going too hard, I’ll look at the HR display for confirmation. Otherwise, I don’t look at it. While RPE is very useful, sometimes it is also useful to get a second opinion from the watch. And should you notice that your pulse rate is high, or too low, that also tells you something about your physical state (e.g. maybe you are dehydrated).

                          So having the ability to display HR data overlayed on the map could be useful. I can see why some might want pace or something else (altitude?).
