Suunto Plus apps
-
RaceCompanion doesn’t seem functional at the moment, at least for me. No way to edit the notes. All the fields are grey.
Anyway, allowing user inputs within S+ apps is a great addition. It opens many new doors.I’ve noticed also that we can report apps now (inappropriate, issues, duplicate, etc). That’s great!

@taziden I asked, maybe it was a mistake that they were published to users already. Race Companion does not work for me either.
-
@taziden to get them working an SA update is needed. As you may guess, these will come.

@herlas said in Suunto Plus apps:
@isazi Thx, as per my friend, issue started for him after the watch displayed an app notification, this broke the S+ last km for him (full dark screen)
In my case I’m not sure about the trigger, I’ve used multiple times this S+ on S9PP without issues.
On today’s run, I had two S+ enabled and voice feedback enabled too.
Will keep testing to see if I can find any pattern.
@isazi the issue with last KM S+ is reproducible on SV using it together with audio feedback. Not sure who the developer of this S+ app is but can we share this ? Also once S+ apps are updated say for bug fixing, how can we know? Thx
-
@herlas so if you enable last km and audio feedback the screen is black?
Watch: Suunto Vertical Ti
Blog: isazi's home
-
@isazi not all black, but we loose the two data points as shown in my photo above ( avg km pace & avg HR). This happens after the first KM is completed.
-
@herlas yes, this one is known!
Thx! -
@Egika Thx for confirming, any idea on my other question? When S+ get an update, how can we tell?
-
@herlas at the bottom of the S+ information there is information on when the app has been updated the last time.
Like “Burner” for example was updated on May 25. -
@Egika Thx, didn’t notice it. Last KM shows 5/24/23 7 pm, will test this again after I see a new timestamp, thx again
-
tried today S+ ghost app, liked it a lot, also noticed this S+ does have the HR gauge available.
Any chance the HR gauge comes to more S+ apps? I’d be great to see it on Last KM, Manual intervals etc etc

@DMytro I recently got myself a Bryton Gardia 300, which is a bike tail light and proximity radar.
https://www.brytonsport.com/#/GardiaR300L
I intend to use for safety. Unlike the Garmin Varia series (who need a compatible device afaik) this also can connect with smartphones via an dedicate app (via BT) to give proximity alert.
By the same token, it would be nice to have an S+ app to connect the Gardia which would vibrate/beep and give proximity info on the watch face. -
@fluca that would be awesome, but how would you implement this? AFAIK on bike computer you can have normal screen and just a line with vehicles on side. S+ only to connect, but I would like to see my normal data on screen, not just who is behind me… not sure how to deal with this. If you ride on busy road, normal alert like zones/navigation would be too much as you would barely see hr/power/speed etc. because of bryton/s+ alerts. I’ll buy radar light first day that this works
-
@fluca sounds quite cool actually, maybe you could contact the manufacturer and ask if they’re interested? I think they have to request the toolkit from suunto and then work on an app together.
-
@DMytro I wonder if it’s possible for S+ app to steal the focus if it’s not currently displayed? If not, only vibration and / or sound would be possible.
-
@Łukasz-Szmigiel that’s another thing I’d like suunto to implement actually. Some s+ apps would benefit from that imo
-
I wonder if the fat burner app and aerobic decoupling can’t be combined into one app and changing screens. And of course, a HR gauge rainbow at the top?
-
@Highlands a bit different functionality tho, no? E.g. I want to go hiking, I don’t care about decoupling, especially in challenging terrain, while I could (personally I don’t) care about calories.
-
@DMytro Aerobic decoupling doesn’t work for hiking? I haven’t used it so far in hiking because I use the two slots for other apps.
-
@Highlands technically it does, but it wouldn’t make too much sense I think? Bc when you ascend and descend, HR can be very different, speed as well. Likewise if there’s some scrambling/via ferrata - so it’s too difficult to draw any conclusions from decoupling.
