Watch Faces as part of new OpenSuuntoPlus
-
I was delighted to see the release of the new generally available development tools for Open SuuntoPlus apps. I found some references to Watch Faces in the documentation but when I installed and looked at the tooling within the VS Code Extension I couldn’t find documentation/support for Watch Faces. Is the initial roll-out of this confined to the Sports Apps? Or did I just miss them?
Thank you so much for opening this up more generally, I can’t wait to get started.

@dtsdts at least in the lecture series video the talk has been about Sports App only…
-
@dtsdts You did not miss anything! At launch we only provide the ability to create sports apps, not watch faces. Watch face creation – including an intuitive visual editor – is in development, but is not quite ready yet. You will know when it is widely available – we don’t intend to hide it

Great news!
-
@SuuntoPartnerTeam This is amazing news!
-
@SuuntoPartnerTeam Wonderful, thanks for clarifying that. I look forward to when that is ready!
-
@SuuntoPartnerTeam Will this be available for a non-Suunto Plus Partner to create? Will I be able to make a watch face myself or we this go through a similar process as open sport app development where I’d have to be a partner to create a watch face?
-
@Tony-Garcia Partnership is only a requirement for when you wish to upload to the store. You do not need to be a partner to use our development environment or to deploy things onto your own watch. However, whenever you synchronize with the Suunto iOS/Android app, all software not installed from the official store will get wiped!
-
@SuuntoPartnerTeam So will there be a curated list of user submitted watch faces from the app store?
Perhaps a competition for three new user made watch faces?
