Stryd footpod not working with last 2 fw on SV
-
My Stryd, despite being paired, does not work anymore with Suunto Vertical since last two FW updates (it works if used without the watch).
I can pair the StrydX
I see it in paired devices
I see battery info and it is recognized as “SPEED & CADENCE, POWER”
If I open in the pre Running menu > Excercise options > Sensor data, i see “Foot POD”
When I enter the Sensor data Foot POD menu, there is nothing, only Back arrow
When I start running there is no pod icon in the menu
During the run, power information comes from the watch, not the pod (if I move the watch power goes up, if I move the pod nothing happens)My setup:
- Suunto Vertical Ti Solar - FW 2.44.52 (same with previous 2.44.46)
- Next Gen Stryd - FW 2.1.32.1.1
I see others had similar issues with footpods in other threads but there was no dedicated thread:
- Software Update 2.44.52 (2025 Q3 - HOTFIX) - (No footpod icon when about to start an activity) https://forum.suunto.com/topic/13770/software-update-2.44.52-2025-q3-hotfix/105

- Frequent beeping after recent firmware update, even when not in a workout [Perhaps due to Stryd?] - https://forum.suunto.com/topic/13691/frequent-beeping-after-recent-firmware-update-even-when-not-in-a-workout-perhaps-due-to-stryd
I contacted support and tried everything they suggested (restart, forget and pair, power off…) but nothing worked.
Last resort would be hard reset but I have little hope it would work and would like to see if others have a SV which works with a footpod since last FW update.
Any suggestions?
