What do you expect from the next update?

@sky-runner I completely agree, nicely written. I really like Suunto’s navigation—graphically it’s much better and clearer than the competition—but climb guidance really doesn’t work very well. I also remembered one more bug in the navigation for me: when I turn back along a route I’ve already run, the color of the track log covers the navigation route.
Suunto: Ambit 3, Spartan, Vertical 2
Garmin: FR 405, 935, 970 , Fenix 3, 6X, Epix2 Pro -
@sky-runner @runyx17 And I’ll say it again, on the chance someone out there is listening: Removing the auto-reverse “feature” would solve almost all of the navigation issues.

Not a bug, but a deliberate choice from Suunto as far as I remember. The rationale being that the real track has always precedence over the planned scenario.

@isazi OK, I understand and accept.

definitely some stuff to iron out around navigations last update…I couldn’t be more on route

I had lots of expectations but I don’t think Suunto’s navigation is that good yet. We have spoken about this in several threads and there are too many bugs, inaccuracies and issues.
Honestly, after several months with the Vertical 2, I expected a lot more this Q2 -
@dreamer_ Maybe some fixes will come with the next update.

I expect to be able to manually set custom Heart Rate zones directly in the Suunto app and have them sync seamlessly to the watch. Furthermore, I hope that activities imported from third-party head units (like the Hammerhead Karoo) are properly categorized into these HR zones, ensuring that all dependent metrics and analysis are calculated accurately.

But will be another update?

@Bogdan1921 Someone on Suunto telegram channel had posted a reply from Suunto support talking about future updates for V1.

The V1 has not been updated in 2026 yet and we are reaching September. Perhaps Suunto is releasing an update or two but it does not seem the V1 is receiving the support that the watch should still have. Which is a shame. The watch is not that old yet
-
@dreamer_ I guess that’s exactly the context of the Suunto support reply.
Even though V2 is my main Suunto, hopefully Suunto brings all new V2 features to V1 that are hardware supported. I like V1 very much and I’ll keep it until Suunto releases a new MiP Vertical.
