Suunto 7: Breaks in Fit daily heart rate

[Brad_Olwin]

@NickK You have rebooted the watch, right? That seemed to help for a day or two.

Yes, it is better after reboot, indeed. Probably I should get into habit of doing that daily until the updates roll.

@NickK A reset won’t solve the issue and too much hassle. Just reboot when you need to. Hopefully fixed on next release.

issue

What is the reason for the issue? And why is my S7 not affected? Or is it too fresh?

[Brad_Olwin]

@pilleus With the last firmware update, my daily HR improved a lot and I saw few “breaks.” Others seemed to be having more issues. It may be a Fit to watch connection as opposed to the HR and may be an issue for Google. I think Suunto is planning to port the activities to SA, which would be much better IMHO.

But I hope that the export to Fit will stay alive as an option (ticwatch can sync to the own health app and/or to Fit) , because in Fit there are all data available (heart rate, steps, sleep, activities, weight) from several watches. For me a reason to choose the WearOS powered S7.

In my Suunto App at the phone there is an information amongst my activities which is showing S7 and Google Fit.

I would return the S7 if it shouldn’t be possible in the future to sync with Fit as sold and touted.

@pilleus This is what I want. Sleep, heart rate and steps in Suunto app and in Health in OS.

@Brad_Olwin Yes, reset is time consuming but I think it’s the only way forward. Rebooted the watch after charging today. Already have several breaks inside a three hour period. The watch’s been on my wrist since 7:00 but hasn’t measured heart heart rate until 7:47, then it took another reading at 8:34 and called it a day. It’s 9:52 now, I launched Fit on the watch several times, but it’s holding tight. No daily HR for ya!

I think the problem is Fit on Wear OS. If this were a phone connectivity issue, I’d imagine I would have still had a decent graph in my watch’s Fit.

Looks like daily HR is getting worse by the day for me, sadly. After today’s reboot, Fit is pretty much out:

That single value around 11:05 is a manual reading. Basically, daily HR hasn’t worked since about 9:00. Forced-exited Fit on the watch, cleared the cache. Will see if this helps.

@pilleus I don’t think that Fit import will be changed, I think that the data will be collected in SA as well.

It’s okay, I was wrong. Fit is the app which collects data from the sensors in the watch. It’s a native function of Fit and has nothing to do with Suunto App.

This will remain (steps, heart rate, distance) even if the data are synced into the Suunto App. And if there will be no connection between Suunto App and Fit to export activities, it does not matter, because I import the activities from Strava to Fit.

Looks like Google has just pushed updates to both phone and watch Fit apps. No new features announced, so I’d assume we are seeing bug fixes. Who knows? Maybe this will resolve the daily heart rate breaks. After force-stop and cache clean things appear to be working fine for the past few hours.

[pilleus]

@NickK this would explain the fact that I had no problems at all. Fit on the phone was updated on 30.01.20, on the watch too. I setup the watch on 31.01.20, both updates included.

[A Former User]

@pilleus We are talking new updates, pushed today I was setting up on Feb 1 and picked everything prior to that day in initial updates.

Actually, there was one new feature in phone’s Fit: the application theme can now be selected in preferences.

new updates

In Android? I have just checked PlayStore, no updates available for Fit.

[A Former User]

@pilleus Yes, Android. I’m sure Play Store rollout globally is staggered. The latest update I see is from today, Feb 6

[pilleus]

@NickK okay, Germany at the end of the world

Have you been able to resolve your heart rate issues here, @NickK? My S7 seems to be doing the same thing…
