@ink357 At this time no, the SuutoPlus has to be turned on at the start of an exercise.

Ouch! I’m the one who always forget to turn it on!

Thanks for the photos in high altitude and the one with sprints. Pretty handy!

At this time Suunto app not yet updated to reflect new SuuntoPlus goodies? Went mountain biking with the Suunto Plus weather option on but cannot see it on the app, I was able to see the screen during the workout though

Weather is not pushed to the app.
Try those Training Peaks features - they are synced now.
And maybe try klimat.app to add weather information to your workouts in the app

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos

Same situation

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@Lozen normal

[Egika]

@Lozen this is because the standby screen is using less resolution and colors to save energy.
also seconds are not shown for the same reason

Tested new FW on S9B, didn’t noticed any bugs, but I had only one trail run. New Suunto+ modes are cool, finally something for users that don’t have Strava or TP.

Just make SA reads that S+ data in seperate section.

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Is S3F going to get new FW? My wife has it and she likes new outdoor WF

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@Dušan-Ković Nope. Only S3 (not fitness gets)

[MiniForklift]

@markytarky I’d like the battery level indicator on there, and day and/or date would be good too. Both would be more useful IMHO than the pressure reading, well useful to me anyway

Other than that, nice job. Pretty cool updates and nice to finally have a new watchface to use

[Dušan Ković]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Is there any internal difference between S3F and S3?

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@Dušan-Ković yes. Different HR module (not sensor) and better built (materials). The more specifics I dont know. Also it’s made in Fi, instead of ZH

[markytarky]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos I’d like to report two crashes when activating the Suunto Plus Hill and Weather feature. The watch suddenly rebooted. Thanks.

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@markytarky any help ?

[Łukasz Szmigiel]

How does the new S+ features work with auto laps enabled? Does it interfere somehow? Will I have to remember to turn off auto laps when I use S+?

[markytarky]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos not really, just telling in case more people will report

DC Rainmaker made a short review of firmware update
https://www.dcrainmaker.com/2020/09/suunto-rolls-out-pile-of-new-suuntoplus-widgets-to-suunto-3-5-9-watches.html

I don´t have S9, but I am very glad to see current grade in S+ screen.

I just have to ask you lucky S9 owners, is there any way to see HR on navigation screen?

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@Łukasz-Szmigiel it registers manual laps. So you can keep autolaps as you like and or interval laps. Should work with all those no issue.

Only issue is that if you want also manual laps and you do these it might get confusing.

[azeanic]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Does it work with the interval function on the watch? Do i still have to autolap each time or does it take cues from the interval.

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@azeanic

Ok let me put this down

Suunto watches atm have 3 type of laps:

• Interval -> Made when you add an interval screen automatically
• Distance/Duration -> Made based on distance/Duration automatically
• Manual -> you press the button and makes a lap

Each of these laps can encapsulate (contain) more than one of the others. There is no limitation there.

For example

You make a manual lap after your intervals/or 1km distance lap and that lap should contain the previous version.

You can flat down the laps in the Sunnto app by type (and on QS)

When you use the S+ features that create laps those laps are manual.
