Swimming in the pool.

New patch and problems with this update.

The first problem that appeared was the lack of information about 100-meter laps (markers) despite them being enabled and set.

A friend had a similar situation with information about climbing, which stopped appearing after the update despite them being enabled. The day before, everything worked for her on the old software.

Another problem is the recognition of swimming styles has completely fallen apart.

The first activity today was a 1000m freestyle warm-up. SHOCK, the watch detected everything as “BACKWARD”. No kidding! I’ve been swimming for many years with SAmbit3Peak, S9B, SV and I haven’t noticed any problems with recognizing swimming styles, it worked perfectly until today. Of course, the information about 100 meters didn’t work.

The next exercise is 20x100mx20s intervals in the medley style. What the hell, what was going on here?

In short: there were 20 intervals planned, the watch showed 38. Simple math gives a distance of 2000m, but in fact it gave 1500m. A mistake of 500m.

The algorithm got totally confused when changing styles and of course it incorrectly interpreted the type of style with the lengths that were supposed to be corrected.

The next exercise is 500m backstroke. It recognized the style because I think backstroke is the priority here, but out of the planned 500m it came out to 425m.

The last exercise is 500m freestyle in rows and pullboy. Six lengths out of 20 were freestyle, the remaining 14 lengths were backstroke! 6. There were still plans for the classic, but my irritation got the better of me (…)

I will emphasize it again. I have been sailing for years with SA3PEAK, S9B, SV and until today there was no problem. After the update, total disappointment. Of course, I am already going back to the previous version of the software because unfortunately it is impossible to train with it.

Yes, I did a soft reset.

@Klaane said in Battery drain:

The battery on my Suunto Vertical Solar has dropped from fully charged to 55% in only two days. Last night it dropped by 15% while I was sleeping with the watch on.
I have mobile notifications and 24/7 HR turned on but it still shouldn’t drain that fast, right? Standby backlight is off and I’ve used GPS for less than 10 minutes during those two days.
Do I have a defective battery or could this be some other issue?

It sounds frustrating! While mobile notifications and 24/7 HR can drain the battery, a 15% drop overnight seems excessive. Try resetting your watch or updating the firmware. If the issue persists, contacting Suunto support might help. 🔋

@rooldaa There’s this post and thread: https://forum.suunto.com/post/159216, wherein Sweden was the latest.

@pavel-samokha awesome, it has been fixed now thank you so much

My Vertical have big problems with sleep analysis. This is last two nights…

@linda-Parsons Have your tried a soft reset or a hard reset? This sounds quite odd.

@EzioAuditore said in Is the Vertical as sub-standard as it seems?:

@zhang965 Hey darling, just wanted to know how are you holding up after 9h+ of no Gamin connect? 🙂 Oh and second: Do you trust your health data uploaded on their services? Damn twice till now this happens but the users get: we are sorry sever outage 🙂 Apple will eat them all as it seems 😞 (sorry for polluting the thread but I had to take it out of my system)

Although you have a valid point, for the good and bad with garmin you can still plug on a computer and take your workout, flash firmware etc etc…

@sartoric said in solar charging:

@Wojciech-Łużniak

That’s exactly what happens with battery drain. It’s not solar, it’s very probably due to GPS, or maybe solar but causes are not 100% identified
Did you soft reset the watch before ?

In the end, I get it 😉. you’re correct. The drain continued today, without any particular reason.
I’ve connected watch to charger and for the last 10 mins it remains at 30%.
I did the soft reset in the past, also when calibrating the battery.
Thanks guys for help, I’ll wait for the fix 🙂

@Iggge Ok, thanks👍

@Kai-Liu comment was about audit. And an independent audit clarifies it, not what media has to say or not. But so much for independence in C. One can’t even say Winnie the Pooh there 🧸

@RightNow Yes sure everyone one is entitled to expressing their concerns. I have only positive feedback for them since I too have contacted them couple of times and they were always helpful. I do not know though how can ‘distance calibration’ be affected by the shoes. The calibration is applied to it via the GPS (when using Stryd with Garmin or Apple at least). The shoes affect all other metrics but dont think that 1km is different if you run it with one or other pair. It will always be 1 km.

@isazi
Or you read some old forum topics 🤣

@Clément-Lavabre contact support, I doubt is the firmware considering that other people with the same firmware do not have the issue.

@Brad_Olwin we hope

@Mff73 said in HotFix release 2.25.66:

if only the watch could buzz and ring when rebooted, it could enable at least to notice quickly that something happen and react (if not in a hurry race 🙂 ).

I was thinking the exact same thing! Where should this suggestion go so that the folks at Suunto would see it and maybe implement it in the upcoming year or two?

Do we know anything about the step counter yet? Any update? It’s was so far off for me that I temporarily have changed my daily watch to another brand.
