@telefunker press and hold top button to enter T1. Short press top button to start bike. Same for T2 and run.

@SXCohen Got an official answer from Suunto; just in case someone else’s interested here it is : "I am sorry to inform you that the Freediving mode and Mermaid features are not currently available in the Suunto app, but they are accessible on the watch itself. Additionally, I want to let you know that you can view the depth data while diving by selecting the specific mode on the watch interface. " I’d like to push to get an update on the App (and if necesssary on the watch’s firmware) so that becomes possible.

@fv4500 Thanks, I did not have the background app update enabled. Have done so now and will check.

I went form Spartan Wrist HR to S9PP last August. Compared to the Spartan, the S9PP counted more steps, but it looked still okay until round November update when it started to get ridicioulouse high counts of 14-16000 Steps on a normal day. Even things like brushing teeth or moving the mouse where counted. Now it looks back to normal again. I didn’t change my routine, go running twice a week, ride my bike several times a week, go for hikes. Distance remained the same but steps in relative where much to high. The green bars are the duration down below - black are the steps. 2023 with the Spartan looks okay, with the S9PP it gets to high and even higher since November 2023. When the black line is much higher than the green bar it seems that something is wrong. Steps fixed after the last update: [image: 1726575190882-img_7969.png] Switched from Spartan to S9PP in August [image: 1726575279974-img_7992.png] Update in November [image: 1726575247526-img_7993.png] Values from the Spartan till August (did many hikes in May in Südtirol) [image: 1726575375476-img_7989.png] Values going up after Update in November and are back to normal since last update.

@isazi ok merci

@Adamhert restart your phone

@brucey09 as Isazi wrote, starting an activity is not part of the customization. A short press on the top button will always start the previous activity type. This cannot be changed. Buttom button cannot be assigned to any sport mode. This has not changed with any update so far. What you possibly mean is pressing and holding the upper button during an ongoing activity. This will allow to change to a different sport (multisport) and list the most recently used activities.

@Bradleyd the person I’m referring to decided to replace the watch as it was brand new, straight out of the box. It was updated to the recent firmware, soft and hard reset, SA with the newest version. Still no luck, always N/A in AGPS.

@mariam Not possible for VO2 and probably would not work well with other measurements. There is no place to add MET. The watch gives me lower estimates than lab tests as well. It is difficult for watches to accurately measure VO2Max.

Got this problem just now, after a short ride I do on daily base. S9PP. No changes in configuration. Did not answer the “Feeling” question. Latest softwareupdate installed. It is circling since about 50 minutes now. How could I provide more details about the issue? Is there a log in the watch? I am a software developer, maybe I could attach some debugger? Interesting fact! The watch is still receiving notifications while showing the saving circle. And I can press the <empty> button.

the treadmill distance is calibrated from outdoor runs with GPS. The watch matches your individual arm movement to the GPS data and uses this for indoor running. Try an outdoor run to get the calibration. Then: After running on the treadmill you can manually adjust the real distance reported by the treadmill in the activity summary screen on the watch, if you want

@maszop That is fair - I would not expect there to be an unlimited number of characters. However, right now the watch only shows about 6 lines of text (lines that fit in the watch) which only amounts to a couple sentences. Many of my texts are longer than this (for example, this paragraph I just wrote would be truncated). I guess if I had to specify a number I would ask for up to 20 lines, which would cover nearly all my messages. Certainly others will have different needs. This is meant more of a request than a complaint. It was a change when I went from my S3F to S9PP. It is always hard to lose features, but of course we gain others!
