What do you expect from the next update?
-
I wish the screen to not timeout during stopwatch (I m doing planks with watch in front of me)

A few things that still bother me with the SV:
When mobile notifications are enabled, I can’t pause the activity from the top button when a notification preview is shown. I first have to dismiss the notification from the middle button and only after that I can pause the acitivity. In many cases when cycling or running, I don’t even notice that I have a notification on my screen blocking my pausing, which leads to my activity not pausing when I intended it to pause. Super annoying, I feel like pausing should override the message preview for the reasons mentioned above.
Second thing is still the GPS accuracy. I do a lot of 10k road racing on officially measured tracks that I know are the correct distance. I’m usually the one in my group where the pace is off and the end result shows 100-200 more distance than the race was. Makes following pace a bit hard honestly. I’ve tried all the gps accuracies and the result is the same. vertical seems to be measuring the pace a bit “faster” than what it actually is.
Third thing is the fitness evaluation. All of ny race predictions are off a lot and VO2max is a lot lower than what was measured in a lab setting for me. I cannot comprehend why the algorithm shows my 10k prediciton to be 2mina slower than what I have recently raced? Makes no sense to me. It should at least predict that I can reach the result I have just reached.

If you know the distance is exact and you are planning on following the exact measured path, you can create a route of the course then use the snap to route feature in your watch which will force it to measure the predefined routes distance instead of your actual track.

@stromdiddily
I have done so, I planned the track in SA and before the race set my watch to follow that exact route, still somehow i managed to get 160m more than what the distance was in the pre-drawn route. -
I have been using Suunto Race for over a year. In my opinion, Suunto’s biggest shortcoming is its calendar. If it knew which races I would be participating in in the future, its comments would be more consistent. If a calendar like intervals.icu was made, Suunto would make the best sports watch.

Bug fixes. Bug fixes. Bug fixes.

@jjorgemoura what? What did you do ?
-
@jjorgemoura whhhhhhaaaaaatttttt?
-
@Sportsfreund what did he? What?
-
@jjorgemoura I think he expects a update with all the bugs fixed? Not ‚one bug fixed, but 3 new bugs‘ as we usually get?

@Tami999 it’s strange that the Vertical is so far off from my phone, Galaxy 7 watch and Garmin. All those three show 500-1000 steps difference.
My Vertical was before I sold it always several thousands steps from everything else.
