Software Update 2.44.46 (2025 Q3)
-
@Gunnar I have experienced the factory reset on Race S.
-
@SailingP yes, saw it in the other thread. So my post is obsolete. Sorry for your experience with this update.

The difference depends on your actual crank length. You can use the following equation:
Measured Power=True Power × Configured Crank Length / Actual Crank Length
My actual crank length is 172.5mm. If the power meter is configured to 170mm, the measured power will be underestimated by approx 1.5%.
So not really significant in this example.
Edit: Corrected the equation (swapped configured and actual crank length in the equation)

@brechtvb I don’t think this is a bug, this is the old sensor architecture: the difference with this firmware is that we can have multiple sensors saved.

@Ze-Stuart said in Software Update 2.44.46 (2025 Q3):
Has the open-water swimming issue been resolved
My Race updated automatically last night, and I went for a open water swim in the morning. There are no weird side jumps that occasionally happened before, and overall the recorded track now looks much more precise. It turns out that before the update, the watch was adding about 50-70 meters per kilometer. Now my calculated speed is a bit slower, but I’m OK with that
Looks like the bug fix was really well done, thank you, Suunto team!
-
Great Update. Multiple Sensor Support works Great. And i will Test Climb guidance 2 in the Future. Installation was Good. And no restart. Only my Training Zones (hr, power, Tempo) where wrong.
-
@Mads-Hintz-Madsen thanks, not that much - in pair with powermeter accuracy, I have same lenghts on both on my bikes as you
-
@Ze-Stuart a missed opportunity
-
@far-blue Thank you so much for catching that. Nothing is worse than going out after an update and your first run/cycle with new software be totally off by the wrong zones. It can so so defeating.
This update seems like it was major surgery. The having to set it up like a new watch and no real memory of anything that came before is a bit much. I wish there were a bit more warning.
Using a Suunto in 2025 is a very unique experience.

@kriskus I totally agree. The Spanish speaking community is all over these updates and I think there is one in French. Having said that the English speaking world like Desfit, DC Rainmaker and GP Lama are pretty deep in the Garmin world unless there is a new watch that comes out. I have to imagine the juice is not worth the squeeze for them with the amount of work for the views it would get, but still there is little or no English speaking release descriptions out there. Some like Befinisher will do dubbed versions, but not the quick release videos.
-
same here. it looks like the watch was updated to latest version at 3am and from that time, all sleep data completely missing. i was even forced to pair watch with phone again (and phone was needed to be restarted as well :D)
i was like blah, no this garmin sh*t again, but now its ok. i can live with that … for now
at least, i wasnt the only one -
@2b2bff I’ve just tested it & it’s great,
Set it up as Tieutieu explains & you’ll get the 3 ZS zones in the outer ring that change from green/yellow/red as you move through the zones & a little arrow showing where in each zone you are (which can be ignored as only the zone really matters as per all the ZS gumpf)
Just bear in mind that it will be blank for the first 10 mins whilst ZS sorts itself out (mine was actually blank for about 12 mins).

Software update 2.44.46 installed in watch. I tried to download a new offline map but the app is still aking to connect the watch to a charger. What am I doing wrong? App version is 6.0.2 (Android).
-
Ok, I am puzzled… I can now pair several sensors of the same kind, which is cool. But I can no longer select the kind of sensor I want to pair…
Prior to this update I had connected my Fazua Ride 60 E-Bike as a power sensor and got power and cadence from it.
After this update the same sensor is automatically detected as a speed sensor that provides speed, cadence and distance. It feels like I lost the freedom of what I want to measure.
Additionally, the possibility to configure already paired sensors is gone. Clicking on a connected sensor now provides battery, which is cool. But there are no options any longer. Like switching Auto calibration off for stryd.
-
@Mattg576 I’m not sure in what way that has been a reply to what I was saying?
-
@email2massimo in settings on the watch within navigation you can trigger the map download without connecting the watch to a charger. And if you start the download by charging the watch, the watch will keep downloading as you lift it from the charger…
-
@email2massimo I had it the same. Just clicked download on desired map and after that I confirmed the warning on watch, that I really want to download map.
-
@borgelkranz now that multiple sensors can be paired, improvements in selecting what to get from the sensors should come.

@isazi Also the option for wheel circumference Is missing for speed sensors. How does it work now? Only automatic calculating after some distance?
-
@isazi ah ok. Switching on my incremental mindset, priming myself for continuous delivery…
