    Can someone with latest firmware confirm that POD is still recognized? Suunto service tells me, that my POD was instantly recognized without an issue, while I could not, even with hard watch reset. I need to rule out firmware bug (only change that was updated between dives).

    @matteobucc said: ​Hi everyone and Suunto Team, ​I am an advanced freediver (diving to 50m+ and competing) using the Suunto Ocean. ​The hardware, display, and GPS tracking are absolute 10/10. However, for deep freediving and spearfishing, the software currently lacks essential features found in older dedicated computers or competitor models. ​To make it a complete tool, please consider adding the following in upcoming firmware updates. ​First, a single surface screen summary between dives that displays surface time, dive time, minimum temperature, and ascent and descent speed (m/s). ​Second, separate descent and ascent alarms, with the option to configure depth and time alerts separately for the descent phase and the ascent phase. ​Third, a dedicated spearfishing profile that silences audio and vibration alarms by default. ​Fourth, a dedicated pool freediving profile designed specifically for dynamic and static training without triggering depth sensor alarms. ​Fifth, advanced app graphs with clearer depth and speed details in the logbook for post-dive analysis. ​The hardware is top-tier; now it just needs the software it deserves. Thanks! I completely agree that the Suunto Ocean has some serious shortcomings when it comes to freediving and spearfishing. It is truly unbelievable that the watch cannot display the two most essential pieces of information for freediving and spearfishing on the screen at the same time: the data from the last dive (depth and duration) and the surface time. This simply makes no sense and is one of the biggest shortcomings of an otherwise excellent watch. I also believe the watch should have a dedicated Spearfishing mode. For a device called Ocean, it is quite disappointing that, despite offering numerous sport profiles, there is no option specifically designed for spearfishing. Another major frustration is the automatic activation of Scuba mode every time I dive. As soon as I go deeper than one meter while swimming or simply enjoying the water, the watch automatically switches to Scuba mode. As a result, it records false dive activities throughout the day and negatively affects recovery and activity statistics. I would genuinely like to understand the logic behind this software design. Officially, the Suunto Ocean is not recommended for professional scuba diving, yet Scuba mode is enabled by default, cannot be disabled, and its behavior cannot be customized. That simply doesn’t make any sense.

    Well, scratches or cracks are permanent, even if the watch is well built. Since it’s a dive watch (close proximity to metal equipment / coral objects), I would rather change protective screen/case than the whole watch in case of an accident Anyways - print is couple of grams of filament and looks better in real life than in close up photo (could be even better if printed on smooth plate). Someone will definately find this useful.

    @mikeller Bonsoir, Je voulais également remercier ceux qui ont travailler sur la possibilité d’un export des fichiers .fit de ma Suunto Nautic avec l’application Suunto afin de les importer dans la dernière version (PC) de Subsurface ou j’ai déjà toutes mes plongées. Encore merci !

    @Gilles-van-der-Have said: @Egika thank you, I am aware, as with many forums i anticipate on Suunto monitoring theirs to further improve their products and services. Every time I report a bug and tell suunto support more people on their forum complain about it, they always ask if I can provide links to those topics. It could be that Suunto support tries to annoy people by asking a lot of info or it could br they haven’t got a clue what’s going on on their forum.

    @trianst Seems like General » Tones 》All off: no events trigger alerts NOTE: These tone and vibration settings do not affect scuba and freediving activities. See Dive alarms for dive alarm settings.

    @GS-111 What i have is not the point. The point is that I’m not able/allowed to choose the size i might have… I can’t have 3 or 6 or 7,5 or other “not standardised” tanks of my need. A simple X,XX liters custom would not be that difficult it might even allow for less predefined sizes

    The Nautic S now seems to have Trimix. About the Ocean I’m not sure. Does the Oceans Altimeter automatically adapt the dive algorithm for Mountain Lake diving? The Nautic S not if I got the manual right

    In addition, it would be cool if I could add friends I follow as dive partners and they would also be found automatically with the name

    @Brainicus said: I know this question has been asked several times before, but seeing a delay with releasing a strikingly similar Nautic S and the fact GF99/SurfGF are supported on a larger Nautic cousin, the question bears repeating… Is there a chance we will see these two features on Ocean? Perhaps, as a part of the upcoming firmware upgrade as I’d expect Ocean and Nautic S share a lot of under the surface bits? (And yes, I’m aware the published Nautic S manual doesn’t include these features, but I’m still hoping for an omission in the manual rather than the removed functionality v Nautic) Up this subject!

    I don’t know how it works on an ocean, but on my race s the direction is auto detected. If the route has tbt alerts, those are applied either way the direction I walk/run/bike the route. If I have reached the destination, the route is still available. No need to go into menu’s the choose a direction, just start. On my 2 previous garmins, this worked different. I had to choose in advance which way to go (and on a round trip it wasn’t easy to see on the map which way to start) If you followed a route the other way around without setting it in the settings you had a course error warning on your screen, all the time. When you selected the route to be followed in opposite direction you would loose tbt alerts. And if you reached destination, the route disappeared from your screen. Way to many times when I wanted to follow a round trip, the stupid watch concluded I reached my destination before I even stared and the watch ended navigation. So you have to go into settings and select the route again. I understand your wish to follow a route in opposite direction, but don’t envy garmin users. Envy suunto users with a running sport watch.

    @seaman-life sorry to hear. But our of ignorance from my part—isn’t this why real diving watches has either drilled or fixed lugs and utilise either NATO or bracelets? There is basically no force in the world that would rip the bracelet (or my rubber strap with deployment clasp) off my Seiko Tuna.
