    @Joaquin Be careful not to chase perfection and in the end nothing is completed. The komoot route is a bit cumbersome and komoot is far from perfect (even if I tell komoot to not change the route, the route on my suunto race s is different than on my wife’s apple watch.) The garmin/wahoo way (select a gpx file and use the open with app) would be an improvement, even if not all tbt alerts are perfect. My first gps watch (a ambit 3 sport) only had breadcrumb navigation. Did I ever got lost? No. My watch after that, a forerunner 935, had breadcrumb and tbt alerts. (Which didn’t work well. A route could only have 50 navigation alerts and if you did your route reversed you lost all tbt alerts). Did I ever got lost? No. My first watch with maps (a forerunner 965) and having some context is nice. Eventually garmin fixed the 50 alert limit, but not the reverse problem and they introduced a timing bug (up to 10k the alerts are before a corner, after 20k alerts are in a corner, or after). And yes, on a twisty road you get alerts for every corner. Did I ever get lost? No. Now I have a suunto. Komoot is fine, but could be better. Autodetect of going reverse is good. No problem if I do a round route and the end is detected before the start (garmin has problems with this. Navigations stops when you reach the goal, which could be before you actually started). Autozoom actually works as one would except (garmin had autozoom, but that doesn’t work, or not as one should expect). But do I get lost ever? No. In the end, all are equally good in the “do not get lost” requirement. Is everything perfect? No. But don”t wait until everything is perfect. Release small steps. Get feedback. Improve some more.

    @Squirrel completely agree. In fact, at this moment is very likely the Race and Race S are the only watches of the market without the white/red implementation. It’s not something critical, of course. But now everybody seems to like the flashlight in the watch, it’s one of those details that are very visible

    I enjoy both verticals and I have no problem reading them but for the summer season MiP is awesome. [image: 1779639840081-img_1252.jpeg] [image: 1779639840139-img_1254.jpeg]

    The models of garmin that are testen in a scientific way (not by some sport gadget blogger) shows that hrv isn’t that accurate on those models. (See https://the5krunner.com/2026/05/05/forerunner-265-hrv-study/ , links to sources on that page) I have no reason to believe other models or other brands are more accurate.

    How unfortunate that with the latest and last firmware, heart rate measurement stopping has become so much more frequent. Before it was extremely rare, at least for me but now it seems like it’s a weekly occurrence.

    Good evening all, I understand that the topic was discussed in between topics and comments, I just wanted to submit this in a fresh format to request for advice. My Suunto 9 G1 is not charging any more, and I am trying to figure out what is wrong. Until now I have cleaned the contacts, reset the watch, tried with another cable and with different chargers. The watch might start charging for a while, but if it’s unplugged it doesn’t continue charging. I consider this watch as a strong ally in my daily routine and activities, and I don’t want to quit it. Is there any advice? Thank you

    I know that HR measurement at the wrist can be difficult and it is better to use a chest strap. However, even for normal walking (not even Nordic walking) I get horribly wrong measurements, e.g. yesterday the watch showed a maximum of 139 bpm in the afternoon, but an 24h-ECG (which should be 100% accurate) shows a maximum of 106 bpm in the morning (it is hard to search for the same time span). Anyhow, the difference is not acceptable! Yes the watch has correct settings (left arm) and is correctly attached to the wrist. What can I do? I need to track my pulse.

    Good day, I have a Suunto Spartan Ultra and have had it for 8 years. From my last Samsung UI update my watch has not synced my daily steps with the Suunto app. I have tried the following but not success: Restart phone and watch. Reinstall Suunto App Force stop Suunto App Unpair watch from phones Bluetooth and reconnect. Gave all items on Suunto App permission. Made sure Suunto APP and phone is not on energy saving mode. If anyone has a solution please assist. Kind regards

    I thought the Wahoo cycling cadence sensor would connect to the Suunto app easily being Bluetooth. Should it? It’s also not connecting to the Ambit3 watch.

    I haven’t used my D5 since January; I got it out of the cupboard today to charge it as it’s dead, but I can’t remember how to attach the charger. I’ve searched the manual but it just says ‘attach’, it doesn’t explain how. There’s a red thing on the end of the cable which I seem to recall ‘snaps’ onto the watch, but right now it’s not snapping onto anything - it doesn’t stick to the back of the watch like I seem to remember. Have I got this totally wrong? Please can someone explain in simple terms how to attach the charger?! Thanks

    @sky-runner maybe a silly idea, but what about using multisport ? entering an aid station you switch to any mode you customized for “”“pause”“” at station, and switchback to main one when going out ? if times data are setup correctely, you can have total time and/or current activity time (run or pause time in you case), previous pause and previous “stats”, etc… and you will have all details in SA after.

    @Stefano-M64 use average speed in time windows, not just when it’s below 2 kmh. For 10 sec for example.

    @larrybbaker After posting this feature request yesterday I googled if this might already exist for suunto, because I knew that it exists for garmin (tried to find an image of it, but couldn’t find one). I found someone in this forum who suggested something similar for the suunto vertical and the user created a nice gif how it could look like: https://forum.suunto.com/topic/10057/current-heart-rate-on-the-map The information shouldn’t cover too much from the map, but some sorf of indicator could be at the edge of the screen.

    @maszop garmin has a special AR mode, that allows recording but not much else. and basically it shows a time stamp since when this mode was enabled uninterruptedly. So it can be checked easily after the race.

    Yesterday I swam 50 laps, so 1250 m, but Race S fw 2.39. 44 only recorded 1075 m. It lost 7 laps! The first 20 laps I did freestyle + backstroke and the last 30 only freestyle (see image below). At the end of every 25 m I pressed the down button to track the lap. [image: 1742726260383-a412a7b0-1d44-4c68-b08c-4c9beaf73e72-image.png] I did the same training as the previous week, see https://forum.suunto.com/post/163734 Please Suunto, it’s time to fix the incorrect distance estimation in swimming. People can buy Suunto because it’s very nice but if it doesn’t do the main job (recording the activity correctly), they will go and buy other sports watches. Thanks.

    Notifications is the only one for me. There are 2 issues with the ‘do not disturb’ option in an activity: When you enable it for an activity it then doesn’t disable after the activity finishes. When you enable it you block not only general notifications but also all activity-specific notifications such as auto lap, above/below zone and structured workout alerts. The other item I would have added to this list is disabling the display - but that was added in a firmware update recently It’s great not having my watch light up a darkened room during a yoga cooldown

    @maszop said in Altitude/elevation fallback to GPS: Altimeter data from GPS alone is usually useless. There’s no point arguing about it. you’re right, the are no reasons to replay to you.
