S7 Staged release

@jorgefd78 wow, impressed!

@jorgefd78
Hi, how comes we see your app data on a windows pc ?
thx Tom -
for your plesure. you can compare both tracks and play with them
-
@jorgefd78 first I got a perfect 10s-fix track yesterday and then on the next ride I got this with cycling
-
@Egika fusedtrack is based in arm movement so I suppose the algorithms while running are better than cycling
-
@jorgefd78 probably. In cycling the arm moves much less.
-
@jorgefd78 same day. morning perfect, afternoon bad.
Suunto is marketing this new fused track to work with both running and cycling.The track looks like the FusedTrack algo tried to always steer away and got caught by the GPS point regularly…
FusedTrack does not necessarily need to rely on arm movement. It is basically integration of direction and acceleration. this can work with any sports in theory - while in practice Suunto has calibrated it for running (and cycling?) primarily.
I am just saying that the claim “running and cycling” does have room for improvement for cycling…
-
personally wouldn’t use it for cycling as would think that a 10s reading could cause issues like this due to the distance that can be covered. Slower sports like walking, running, SUP etc should be fine. Also not sure I would use it for hiking either due to evelation issues and area definition where you may need to make dramatic adjustments for features.
Though is a bit surprising on this track as it is so straight.
-
@Egika - Great suggestion - quite right - a reboot sorted the issue.
-
Any chance we may see some of the S3/S5/S9 features that were dropped?
Would be great to have similar watch screen functionality with barometer etc.
Would also be great to have that locked point/navigation function,
And would be nice to have the loop, cadence and other tracking improvements.Any reason, other than including in coding, as to why the S7 couldn’t have those excellent features too?

+1, Let’s see if next updates the S7 to SuuntoPlus and the new watchface.

I would not complain if it wasn’t in the release notes:
“When running or cycling, FusedTrack is used to improve tracking quality.”This is new in the S7 compared to FusedTrack implementation in S9, so I had hopes…
-
@Bulkan - would be great to have the S9 watch face as an optional watch face or even better as a possible tracking screen that can be added, along with other s9 tracking screens and as possible tile. Would be awesome to have a weather barometer tile…

Couldn’t agree more

And others little things that in my opinion should be easy to add, for example:
- autopause
- ability to setup heart rate or rhythm alarms
- ability to setup a time or distance targets
- if the S7 has a barometer, why not a storm alarm?
- in the current activity (running, etc) by default the current time is showing, but is small size, a lot of people use glasses, please, increas this font.
These ares basics things to have a better watch.
Thanks.

According to the spec sheet, S7 already has “various options via Google Play” Store doing this.
So far noone has found an app that actually does it… -

So far noone has found an app that actually does it…Yes of course, we can use 3rd party application’s, but I my opinions that basic things should be natives in the suunto apk. For example an alarm for heart rate, if I tracking my exercise with suunto this alarm ahould be managed by suunto…
-
@makzam yes, that’s definitely valid for a function inside the Wear App.
I was just (sarcastically) commenting on the storm alarm one - which is not something i would require from activity recording.
And still I am waiting for this 3rd party app (and hoping for someone posting a link here…) -
@Egika these small things are include in others watches, for example in my old spartan, why not here if this watch is newest and with better specs?
I dont talking about complex things, these are basics characteristics.
Please suunto, listen us!!I dont know if there is a place to do petitions or request improvements¿¿¿???
Thanks again.
