      @Fenr1r So you

      1: point to the direction
      2: press the arrow to confirm
      3: Watch asks you if you know the distance + ascent , if you know you add em

        @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Very interesting. On-watch POI creation without map coordinates but with altitude. I don’t know whether to be impressed or slightly disappointed. Since I only have a Spartan, I’ll settle for continued resentment and POIntless, petty grumbling.

          @Fenr1r you can always wait for the next watch that should have all these. Then you can decide. I understand well that s9 was not a huge update to the SSU and why people didn’t jump so much, and why people would have loved all these to be in the Spartan as well.

            Actual visibility on that? Or personal theory? ('Cos lotsa folks made that kind of assumption in the A3->Spartan leap and, well, you know how that worked out.)

              @Fenr1r logical assumption.

              A3 was a black and white wwatch with no UI/Screens. If it was A3 Gen 2 you would know what to expect

                @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos where exactly do you mean? In the watch-face?

                  @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Not to offend on this justly celebratory day, but are feature sets determined by “logic” or Suunto product differentiation? Hard to make any assumption on anticipated future feature sets in terms of opaque product differentiation plans.

                  What (preclusionary) difference did the Spartan’s color & touch-screen logically make to the continuation of the A3’s POI/WP features that, let’s say, a slightly different bezel design won’t on the S9’s successor?

                  (The touchscreen UI is arguably a better interface for entering coordinates (<=5 columns!) than the repeated/held button press … and yet the entire projected POI-creation function disappeared A3->Spartan.)

                      @Fenr1r I can easily explain.

                      You migrate from DOS to Windows3.1 lets say. Things need to be rewritten.

                      From a technical standpoint, there is a new operating system made for Spartans and the future of Suunto.

                        Guys, do you have a date and step data in your new outdoor watch face on S9 Baro? Because I don’t and per some pictures, it should be there. Thanks a lot.

                          @markytarky I posted it two hours ago, and no, we don’t. I hope that is something we could get. I guess it would be an easy thing, and I would rather have that than the pressure like now.

                              I guess it is quite much happening here today 🙂 And I think maybe Suunto is getting too little positive feedback, because a big update like this after 2,5 years is pretty good if you ask me! 🙂 The things I’m asking about is just nitpicking.

                                Yup, but not one that precluded (or precludes) putting an equivalent of the A3 POI/WP features on the Spartans. It just took until today, apparently … unless there’s something in the hardware of the S9 that uniquely restricts the functions from the Spartans, S3, S5. In which case, my bad.

                                The comparison doesn’t exactly work with PCs, given Suunto’s proprietal hardware/SW. However, FWIW, Windows gave a different look to directories from DOS … MS did not omit the function from 3.1, reinstate it for 3.11 and deny users of older hardware the ability to install 3.11 (which is where the analogy runs into bespoke HW/SW probs).

                                  The possibility of naming a POI will serve me as a virtual partner during my annual competition on the same route 🙂

                                    @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Well as I don’t have S9 baro (only spartan) I can’t check new features :(, but will the baro trend indicator be affected with auto altitude setting e.g when you start some activity altitude is set automatically and can be significantly changed what in the end can cause barometer to change and consequently it changes baro trend indicator. In the end with auto altitude settings which is part of some walking soprts you can gate false baro trend reading?

                                        @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos but on the baro graph it is not, at least for sparatan, you can still see auto altitude changes on the baro graph as sudden rise or drops in baro pressure? so I have to mentally remove these changes in the baro graph to see baro trend

                                            I wish they make customizable fields in watchfaces through APP, like workout fields for example.
