@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Still not sorted out? Can’t even find an answer or explanation on how to turn dive mode off?

Still not sorted out? Can’t even find an answer or explanation on how to turn dive mode off?

@mcardlejon said in Any update on new firmware release?: Can we have confirmation that the ocean is now abandoned ?. The recent release of the classic vertical watchface for the whole range and the fact it’s not available for ocean does reinforce the thought that suunto have killed any development. Definitely not abandoned. Just slower. You will receive an update soon.

@Nandodiver said in In Backcountry skiing it sucks!!!: @Brad_Olwin 220 minus age that’s the official method largely used for more than 30 years More recently in 2023 some endurance athletes start using the “Nes formula” 220 minus age: 220 - 60 = 160 bpm Nes formula: 211 - (0.64 × 60) = 211 - 38.4 ≈ 173 bpm Most of those formulas are poor, it does not matter how long they have been used. Typically the subjects the formulas are based on are sedentary or do not exercise much. Second, max HR is highly genetically determined and variable. For me the formulas give numbers that would severely negatively impact my training. Max HR should be determined by training if possible. There have been many posts here and I see on Apple forums where individuals are exercising for 60 min or more in Z5.

@tsarit Hello, Have you been able to gain any new insights in the meantime?

Hello @pavel.samokha & SUUNTO! When can we expect an update in freediving mode? @johnkokk provided you guys with very articulate, excellent, and NEEDED update guidance already 1,5 years ago, and it’s not been implemented. This is quite crazy that this has NOT been updated. What’s the blocker on this side? These changes are… not the hardest to make as the functionality is there. We truly need this info. First order of update would be what John said, and secondly - STA and DYN could be really useful, too. In last update there was tons of needed stuff, yes, but adding 22 new sports before fixing one of key USP & Promises? Not cool. PLEASE ADDRESS THIS! Thanks

@dotcom I got the same problem, Ocean not recognize swimming styles correctly.

So I added 10+ dives, and ~20 other activities (yoga, hiking, skiing). For diving with 5mm wetsuit: thought of an extra soft cord to help with watch strap. After a while, no problem straping watch onto suit with last hole. Wearing watch on the right hand and POD on the right side solved disconnect issues. Not a single disconnect during dives. No decompression time with default gradient was on par with other diving computers in a group. Default non removable alerts are a bit annoying, but can be excussed for safety. For non diving activities: GPS works well, even under a coat. Problems: Diving map (3D) is not recorded correctly if you do not wait for GPS signal before the dive. Scrolling between maps in an updated android app - crashes it or makes app unresponsive. Can not end a dive manually. Tried to extend auto dive end (dove in cenotes, which means some surface time in a cavern), with default 5min, got my dive split into 2 parts. Set it to 10mins and did not find a way to stop the dive manually, which means POD alerts already dissasembling the gear outside the dive time (other computers also split the dive and probably everybody needs to live with this). Battery is not a full week lasting (not gonna try to dive with less than 30%) if using for diving and smart phone features, so would not go on a journey without a charger (not an issue, but a thing to know). ps. Brightness was almost always on lowest setting, except for AOD autobrightness.

Tide information appears to have been a thing, or at least a consideration early on in the watches development, as you can see here: https://forum.suunto.com/topic/10899/suunto-ocean-general-discussion/199

@ogillot sure thing, in France we can go to 60 meters on air. I don’t, I stay between 30 & 40 mètres with the EON CORE.

And another update Unit lasted 2 months before the same fault reoccurred. Back to a dead ocean. Battery was around 30% when it died so hoping when it drains completely it’ll restore. Current an over priced paperweight. For anyone considering the Ocean please save your money and go for Garmin.

@dotcom Thanks for the help. I was not aware that the download first needed to happen on the app. All is good now.

Hello! If anyone still has doubts, I asked Suunto directly at the diving forum in Paris three days ago: the Nautic S is a “castrated” version of the Ocean, and the software for diving (and other Nautic S activities) will be exactly the same on the Ocean. After that, it’s a question of whether we trust the marketing department or not ^^'. Oh ! I also have been told exactly what cosme.costa said : firmwares won’t be released quickly on those watches because of the diving activity… I noticed that all functions described in the Nautic S manual are not delivered yet : no tide widget nor diving display customization in the current Nautic S firmware.
