Hello, Any news regarding configuration backup ? It’s still annoying to change watches

what I miss in the interval guide screen is something saying if after this recovery there will be another interval or I’m done. I have really bad memory and cannot remember if I need to start speeding up a bit because my last 10sec hill sprint interval is coming or I’m done and I’ll have a 10min cool down… I’d love something as simple as (pick one): Recovery 6/6 Recovery (end) Recovery + Next: Cool down Or am I missing something obvious?

@Manta said in Request daily target/goals for steps and calories: I use steps and calories as I am not a fanatic sports man, but trying to get in shape for when my cancer treatment starts again, so a lot of walking, spinning, gym and e-biking. Changing each day my target numbers works offcourse but having the flexibility in the app would be a better solution I think. As a counter-example, even if I were tracking steps/calories like you are, simply having separate targets for each day like Monday vs. Wednesday wouldn’t work for me, as I don’t do the same things on the same day. Today is a Wednesday and I did over 90m cycling as my main workout, but last Wednesday was a 5km outdoor run, and the Wednesday before that was a 40m indoor rowing session. So I’d need a morning prompt if the feature of variable targets by day was to be implemented, basically asking “what do you want your targets to be today?” However, even that wouldn’t work perfectly, as I generally don’t decide what exactly I’m going to do until I’ve reviewed my overnight recovery numbers including CTL/ATL/TSB, checked outdoor weather, ensure I don’t have any muscle fatigue I need to be concerned about, etc. It’s only after I’ve had coffee and done this “morning triage” that I decide where my efforts will be. I can’t fully predict what this coming Saturday workouts will be today. As for not being a “fanatic sports man,” you don’t necessarily need to be so in order to use the TSB system. It’s basically tracking your short term fatigue versus long term fatigue. You can read more here: https://us.suunto.com/blogs/blog/understand-and-manage-your-training-load-with-suunto I think a combination of “set calories/steps for minimums for rest days” and “use TSB to track frequency and intensity of harder efforts” might be useful, and it uses tools you have access to today, rather than waiting months or years hoping Suunto will see and implement your request. Best wishes!

@Adrian.S I totally agree, I also train using both scale when I was using garmin (that allow RPE and feeling) and it was super usefull. I could have a hill session with RPE 7-8 and a great feeling at the end because i m exhausted but feel “good” and manage to achieve the excercice properly. while I could have a long run with a RPE of 5 and bad feeling at the end (8while it was supposed to be a s 3-4) RPE is a really nice scale when you know you body and your feeling well enough to use it. it should be optional like the smiley face are, and per sport activation based) Some platform (like nolio) are able to grab RPE and use it in a foster scale you can see your training load. For me RPE is by far the best scale to quantify the load as it match my perception, hope we could have it on Suunto watches as I miss it

@sky-runner and also having zones defined in the app will allow to properly import externals workouts with proper intensity.

@aiv4r To echo this, I recall a day when I first got a competitor’s watch with its “all day stress score”, and over time learning that viewing the realtime readout literally stressed me out, so it worked against my body’s need to cut loose from a bunch of tech saying I was dying when I wasnt… And, someone told me when I first started running: time, distance, and on road at least, pace. All the other stuff gets in the way of learning to (and I quote) “run by feel.” This thread is honestly an extension of that same mindset…and why I’m loving being back with a Suunto on my wrist. I haven’t done it yet but…I’m looking forward to the day I record a run with the app for the “credit” of distance, but nothing on my wrist at all. But that’s veering off topic All that to say, the AI coach does the trick if we want it, and quantifying a “score” or advice we should be getting by feel is, I agree, going a bit out of scope for a sports watch…

To mitigate accidental undo, the undo function could instead be assigned to upper button, while lower does nothing on lap summary screen. That would make it impossible to “lap & undo” by accidentally double pressing the lower button. That sounds as a workable solution.

Upcoming races/events = special kind of planned sessions…

@elbee Yes, I think you’re right. The main use case should probably be simple route generation based on distance, surface type, elevation and current location, especially for travelling or discovering new areas. Workout structure could just be an optional extra, not the core of the feature.

@aiv4r Janne made the point in the video you could use this in preparation of a race or so. How fast will it go down and such. But I think until you use the calendar to plan activities - what currently only can be done with the My Plan feature - it is mostly useless. There should be a way to disable this.

@dreamer_ You could use manual laps and press the lap button at every waypoint (or whatever point you want). There is an average lap pace datafield.

@MarckF I’m not joking. I only have the 2, but, if I had a 3, I’d be all over it.

@moonj Yes, this has been asked several times.
