Movescount to Suunto App

@isazi I don’t have a problem with shut down of a free service (however in case of Suunto not sure how free it was since you purchased the watch) but the way it is done.
If it were to be shut down you move on, but we are in the middle of a transition where nobody sees a clear picture to decide to wait or move on. I don’t know what will remain in the end for the Ambit, I just know that some is taking away piece by piece for now.
But again to be clear, I’m not complaining, just expressing my opinion.

@andrasveres it’s free if you just use the app without purchasing a watch, like the OP seems to be doing, as he never mentioned any watch.

@isazi he might be using a Suunto Smart Sensor which is also a Suunto product

@andrasveres you’re right, although the Suunto hrm would still work with any other app supporting external hrm sensors, and it’s still going to work with movescounts until next year at some point.

I remember there were requests about it.
It is great as a fallback and to be honest if somebody has a Suunto Smartsensor… it already cost a not negligible stack of coins…

@isazi
but you just checked and it does not work as described (anymore?)

@TELE-HO that’s the link (or at least one) to the request to have sensors paired to SA. And yes, I just tested the hack/workaround and it did not work for me.

@andrasveres I’m using Suunto smart sensor and belt bought with my Traverse Alpha HR, so expected the software to sync, which it did until they moved from Movescount

@cosmecosta thank you will have a look and see
