      I have used Snap to route function multiple times and I think it could use one little improvement to make it perfect. Currently, when the GPS signal is lost (e.g. in the tunnel), the recorded track doesn’t stick to the route.

      This is my planned route (there is a tunnel underneath the green hilly part):

      And this is the recorded track with Snap to route on:

      As you can see, there is just a straight line connecting the place where the GPS signal was lost with the place where it was found again.

      Wouldn’t it be cool if the watch could recalculate the position/speed/etc. to really snap everything to route even when the GPS signal is lost? 🙂 I know that this might be hard to implement, I am just dreaming 😄

      SV: fingers crossed :D
      S9 (non-baro): died after 2 months, replaced, holding strong since 03/20
      Spartan Trainer: casing broke after 23 months, repaired, lost watertightness 5 months later, died
      Despite some pretty bad luck, I still love Suunto!
