SSU 2.5.18 - ON AIR

Also power off “button” would be nice… there are periods that i can’t use the watch and for me it would be better to switch it off instead of leave it discharging or remember to charge it, they are all useless charges cycles…

Dimitrios Kanellopoulos

@renton82 I would not leave a lithium device unused

renton82

Ok, but you could always leave it at 50% of charge for storage as i do with all my elctronic devices (cameras, drone, watches power banks etc…). It would be nice if you can let us a chance of choice…

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos it is perfectly fine to leave it half charged and turned off, instead of leaving powered and letting it to discharge and be left discharged for prolonged time that can make damage to battery…

Dimitrios Kanellopoulos

@SlaSh if you let the watch off and the battery drops to actuall 0 you will loose watch memory as of time etc.

renton82

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos But if you leave it at 50% and you switch it off it would be fine…

Dimitrios Kanellopoulos

@renton82 I think yes

@Armin-S said in SSU 2.5.18 - ON AIR:

Finally the S3F can record altitude information and display it in SA in the diagram Thanks Suunto and @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos

WOW - and SLEEPTRACKING also worked pretty well with the update on S3F - at least last night

SlaSh

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos same will happen with powered on and discharged to 0.

Dimitrios Kanellopoulos

@SlaSh duh! but then you know that

Dimitrios Kanellopoulos

@Armin-S should also have stopped recording night steps or at least improved

SlaSh

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos please commit that standby of spartan line watches is awful, I have to turn DND, turn on airplane mode, untoggle 24/7 HR, to have at least moderate standby if this is not done I cannot get more than 7days of standby, so please give me power off ability which could on 50% charge be kept for months… Imagine person who is having multiple suunto watches and you need to charge each every week this is not so convenient way of handling things…

Dimitrios Kanellopoulos

@SlaSh You do not have to turn DND mode on or airplane mode on. The watch standsby when not moved. Just put it at a place it does not get vibrations.

This is a thread about FW update

SlaSh

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos additional workaround my last post about this and only one device I own which cannot be powered off

suzzlo

Also noticed that another bug in Sleep Resume has corrected…

Every morning see that the watch was doing wrong difference between Sleep Goal and Real Sleep Time (it was correct in last 7 days list, but not in Resume)

Yeah!

on the Trainer it looks, at least for today, i actually got a complete 12h heartrate graph (no blank spots).

hope it continues like this now, previously i rarely had a full graph.

@sartoric I also like the updated watch face. looks mutch more refined.

i would like if the rest time remaining or daily steps could be replaced with daily calories target instead

Egika

don’t know if theis is new or asked before:
what does the “Power Saving” toggle in the general settings actually do?
At least I don’t see an immediate result.

Thank you!

Dimitrios Kanellopoulos

@Egika turns vibrations off , I think also lowers brightness and turns BT comms off. Not 100% on all that but this is what I had seen in the past testing it.

Great update for SSU from my point of view. I like the new way looking at the time during the activity (I know it’s been on S9 for some time) - holding the right bottom button with the option to lock the display.
I wonder whether it wouldn’t be possible do something similar with the backlight? Holding the middle button for example and choose to turn on the backlight or access the options menu? Or something like that? That would solve the issue with toggle mode when you turn off the touchscreen.
Is it possible to turn off the touchscreen from the power saving activity menu? Or somewhere else? I think this could be there as well when you can already set autolaps etc.
Otherwise I am satisfied with the update (no battery modes but I can live with that:))
