Suunto Vertical: Bug Collection
-
Weekly duration has some issues on the new watch face…sometimes appears, sometimes does not.
Backlight activation had no impact on values shown. I cycled through that complication a few times and noticed that the value reappeared a few minutes later
-
@stromdiddily noticed that too once. Not sure based on what it does that.
-
@tomasbartko my value is still showing last week number (did not reset to zero today)

yeah, same for me actually…my week starts Monday but am still showing last week’s duration total now

Just a small bug - On the analog watch face, the activity figure at the top often shows 0.00, even though I’ve had some hours of activities. If I then go to the Logbook widget, and then back to the watch face, the activity figure then shows the same figure as the widget. This can happen several times per week.
I do wish more of the complications on the analog face were customizable. Only one can be changed, and only with two options - less than any of the other watch faces!
-
And one more ‘possible’ small one… In the SV manual it seems to suggest that the circle around the little graphic on the resources widget would change colour depending on my state. Mine stays resolutely the same colour regardelss (sort of orange), even though in the app it turns green first thing in the morning.
I may have misunderstood and it is not supposed to change, but if it is supposed to, then it should. Clearly not a deal breaker (obviously!), and barely worth a mention in the overall scheme of things, but… I do like things that should work, to work!

Hi there,
Since the new firmware is on, my watch seems to loose the gps signal…. Is there any solution?
I run some of my home trails and at some point my vertical show that I’m far away from the track/trail
-
New owner of a beautiful Suunto Vertical, I’ve had the opportunity to do several trail, running and hiking outings with it.
On my trail and running activities, I paired it with my Garmin HRM Pro Plus heart rate monitor. Pairing was very easy, but I had a signal loss problem, as you’ll see from the curves below: the HR measurement stops randomly before the end of the activity, and doesn’t come back.The activities are done in personalized modes, the second with wrist HR measurement activated, and the first with measurement deactivated. The belt’s battery level is good, the battery is recent, and this is confirmed when I connect it to the Garmin app.
Have you encountered a similar problem? Have I missed an option somewhere?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
after the last update the problem with Jump Rope still exist - https://forum.suunto.com/topic/9797/jump-rope-counting-issue/2?_=1704194210212
the jump counting is stopping between 18-20 minutes.

Yesterday my Vertical acted as if the upper button was stuck. It was not physically stuck; I was still able to clicketyclick the button, but the display kept scrolling up. I could scroll it back down by pressing the lower button, but as soon as I let go it scrolled back up. Soft reset did the trick.
-
After trying the Race, I just received my Vertical. First turn on and I already find myself with an error message, it starts well, I really have no luck with Suunto! I pressed the top button for 12 seconds to restart it.
I have paired it with the app and will install the latest update. I hope I won’t have any problems later…
-
@Rami13 I have used an HRMPro extensively with my Vertical and no issues. A couple of common problems with straps are getting dry in the winter and not sending good signals or interference from static on tech type shirts.
I always thoroughly wet my strap with water where the contacts are, not just wet the contacts but the entire strap. That works well enough until I start sweating. I have not seen the issue you have.
It might be a battery issue as well, do you know the battery status of the strap? -
THANKS ! Yes I hope.
I received it this morning and our story got off to a bad start (see https://forum.suunto.com/topic/8846/suunto-vertical-bug-collection/664)
I ran for 8 months with a Fenix 7 Sapphire Solar (73 gr), it didn’t bother me, even in competition (10km, half marathon and short trail).I always use a belt during sporting activities. Never used 24/7 for tracking.

Well, I think this is the end of the Suunto adventure for me. After using a Race and its unreliable HR sensor, I ordered a vertical.
I’ve been wearing the watch for 72 hours and I’m experiencing the same problems with the heart sensor but on top of that, there are stability problems (2 crashes), and totally fanciful step detection! I spent the morning sitting at my desk and the watch counted 2000 steps, an incredible heart rate. This data being integrated into the recovery algorithms, resources, etc. Everything that results from this will turn out to be false in the end.
Even if I love the design, the comfort of the watch, the simplicity of the application, putting 6/800 euros into a tool dedicated to helping athletes who are not reliable, I am not ready.
I might come back if this is all made reliable.
-
@Fizzgig You do seem to have bad luck…
I wear my SV all the time, and whilst the step counter is a bit ‘optimistic’, it is not so different to my Ambit, or my Coros Apex Pro, and I can still compare day to day what my activity level is.
The OHR, on the other hand, is very reliable for 24/7 operation (for me), and sleep tracking is ‘close enough’ for it to reflect how I feel about my sleep (although last night I was awake more than it thought, which is unusual for both of us!). I accept that maybe Suunto wrist OHR is not the best on the market, but it continues to be sufficiently reliable for me.
Different strokes for different folks…
-
@Fizzgig Same for me: the OHR is often delirious, with resting data 2 times higher than normal. similarly, when I walk, the cardio goes up to 120 pulses, even though I’m not jogging… I’m hoping for a rapid software update on this subject.
-
I’ve been comparing my Race with my Vertical and it seems like I’m more likely to see the spurious readings with the Race. Now, is it how it rests on my wrist differently or is the firmware any different? Hard to say.
But I know that sitting at my desk and glancing at my Race and seeing my heart rate at 120 bpm is very disconcerting. Switching watches with a Fenix 7x, a much bulkier watch, never shows that.
-
Yes clearly! Especially since all the data collected is used for algorithm calculations. I’m coming out of a day at the office with a site visit this afternoon with 6810 steps. 3500 this morning while sitting from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. (with a passage through the coffee machine which is 25 meters from my office…) Even when washing my hands, the simple act of moving the handle, the watch counts 190 steps and a heart rate between 90 and 110 bpm.
I stopped and restarted my watch to see if that would fix the problem, nope. I find myself with higher resource data than before the shutdown, a lower TSB and CTL as well (certainly the update of day -1 data)
I don’t have a very high sporting level ( 36:30 in 10km and 1h24 in half marathon but all the data displayed in the application are absolutely false.The only correct data are: sleep time, time, pressure and altimetry.
Quite frankly, I expected much better from a Suunto watch. I was ready to make some concessions but this is too much!
-
@Fizzgig yesssss hope for update to solve the OHR Problems… Please Suunto implement a better OHR Sensor!

Curious on your definition of “high sporting level” given those times
