@stromdiddily yes and we are talking about the later since on-watch intervals being too basic have been on the watch for a while but as with many things, pretty half-baked.

I’m going to find a nylon strap because the Suunto straps that I have with my Vertical and the Race all irritate by skin where the buckle makes contact with the skin.

after more than one year, my Race showed me the VO2max only after having walked (using the Walking activity) for the first time with the Suunto Smart Belt. Another subsequent walk and short run with the HR belt showed the VO2max as well.

@nomison over thinking it’s easy done. I also have the Pixel 6. No idea where I got number 4 from

hello, i had the same issue, race model, samsung phone. long tap app-> info -> permissions (calls, notifications, camera…media control)

@dreamer_ The truth is that even in swimming it is an essential thing even though in real time there is the suuntoplus screen

@Brad_Olwin suunto smart, i’ve tryed new battery and new belt… i had problems since firmare 2.44, with my wife’s race s with 2.43 firmware works flawlessly

I’ll be able to provide updates if I hear something from Suunto, for now it has just being acknowledged as a reported bug.

I had that same issue on my 12 Pro, calls popped up fine but texts just wouldn’t show on the lock screen. What fixed it for me was toggling notifications off and back on for Messages in settings, then restarting. After that they started coming through normally. Funny thing is, when I was testing bulk sms for a side project the texts always delivered instantly, so the problem was definitely iOS notifications and not the network.

@GiPFELKiND the resources jumps (up and down) are discussed here quite often and they’re not really reliable when you look at them in short time intervalls, like a single day. In the long run, they pretty much fit my personal feeling. But afaik no one at Suunto can look deeper in how the resources work, since they are Firstbeat „stuff“. I found that I can raise them significantly (about +20% ) while meditating for 30 to 60 minutes and there my HR drops to sleeplike values, so my guess is, that sudden changes in HR will influence such highs in resources .

@Kai-Liu I don’t have access to one, but that’s a great suggestion. Thank you!

@Ketoohs I have not done this yet myself, but I have read that car touch up paint or toy modelling paint can work.

@Fizzgig Suunto offers a service independently where purchased. you just need the receipt when requesting service

@SuperFlo75 Same. Has been pretty accurate for me with running and trail running activities - gym not quite as good - but that obviously has more arm movements involved.

@Elipsus noted! Will try this! Thanks!

@isazi Thanks. Hopefully it will get fixed. Love the watch otherwise and the app is great.

Or just give us two sizes of each model? Since a large part of Suunto’s appeal for me is the look, design, and build quality of the watches—and I suspect Suunto knows that this is one of the few key areas where they can compete with Garmin—it would make sense if they produced a few sizes/varieties of each watch, since “style” is such an important USP for them.

@MiniForklift same issue as S9PP

Hi @mikeorbreak did you resolve this issue? My Suunto Vertical doing exactly as yours is. Added about 600m to a run which should have and about 2400m elevation. Constantly adding meters to even short activities. Have followed all the advise trouble-shooters to no avail. Only wear the watch on wrist with no clothes covering it.
