useful screens such as temp need you to swipe right
You don’t have to swipe on any screens in SU. Buttons and tap is always enough.
Okay, sorry, it’s a tap (on a tiny 2.5mm radius icon) rather than a swipe. But still, temperature is not available with buttons, you need to use the screen. And with gloves that’s not practical.

@Ennoch The poor old SU does indeed suck in the wild compared to its predecessors and, now, its successor. The Instinct Solar sort of seems the business except … and I know this seems shallow, considering I want the watch for the outdoors … it looks like some Cronenbergian G-Shock and vintage Casio hybrid. Can’t look at it. Which is sub-optimal, in a watch.
-
@pavel-samokha Sure, it’s not used by every Ambit owner, but as it is a feature and a possibility offered by the watch (to use custom apps in sports mode), I don’t see any reason to remove it, and no reason to not sync recorded data anymore with Suunto app. When you configure a sport mode with a suunto apps, you can tick a checkbox to enable data logging. Even with the transition, you are still supposed to be able to view those logs.

I do not miss MC at all, since all my historical moves are in SA, plus I have Strava and QS. I love that I can configure the watch via my mobile phone and being completely independent of a computer! You are out on a trip, want to change the set-up? Easy!
It was the same possible with Movescount app soooo… no change here
-
@Ennoch you can tap on screen in any place, not only icon. As with gloves - you’re right, yeah.

I will miss tags! RIP ~450 tags.
@Brad_Olwin can’t agree more. The bigger part of my analytical work is going to trash
-
@Kuba-Sarata For a lot of functions (possibly only the ones that couldn’t also be changed on the watch) you do need a computer with MC App: it’s the server at the other end of the data connection you also require for that set-up change. SA does more settings changes to the watch “independently” in that sense.

I have tried using a stick, axe, explosives just won’t die lol…PERFECT WATCH.
We are waiting for your YouTube series in which you try to kill wild Ambits.

@sebchastang As far as I understand (I may be wrong) it’s not “removing Mini Apps” it’s rather “Saving data generated by Mini Apps is not supported by Suunto App”.

I believe the Traverse has a Sport Mode for that.

MC app you could do far more on the ambits SA you can do nothing

@Fenr1r You’re right but not with the Ambits

I still have my ambit peak somewhere…this seems like a plan lol

@Kuba-Sarata @lohtse So long as you have a data connection. If not, you can actually do at least one more thing with an A3 and SA than with MC. You’re screwed on setup, routes, etc., with either app but (as I understand it) you can effectively offload Moves to SA. On a long, multi-day trek, that might save your records before the A3 starts overwriting them for lack of memory space.

Yes, you are correct. It is more about saving those data. But I understand that at the end of this month, only watch profile feature and route management would be possible through movescount.com. (link to “Suunto app zone” would be removed, just like other sections on the website). That is why I talk about loosing mini apps and loosing associated logs.
-
@sebchastang as I said it’s not clear to me if “Suunto app zone” (http://www.movescount.com/apps) to be shutdown. Generated data is not supported by Suunto App, for sure - but Apps Directory - not clear.

Better not shut it down… I use mini apps far too much…
At least two of my sports modes are purely based around mini apps and the data they collect… And the rest will have one or two if not more mini apps in them…
-
@lohtse would be interesting to know what apps and sportmodes, how you use them. But better as separate topic.

@pavel-samokha thank you for your information. Do you think “Suunto app” will support the generated data in the future ? Do you agree it is a loss and it is legitimate to ask for synchronizing and viewing those data in Suunto app ?
