Sadly i can´t use the exact same watchface again because they removed it. I think you are right by saying that the new watchfaces are not yet optimized for the Race S.
Hopefully that will change with the next patch.
Anecdotally, Garmin, Wahoo, and Karoo will all tell me, sometimes, to turn left when it’s clearly a right turn, or to take the wrong number of exits on a roundabout. I’ve noticed it when driving with Google and Apple Maps, too: I think we as a species have not learned how to correctly explain turn directions.
@Todd-Danielczyk I have the same problem with my OnePlus 5 under Android 10. Sometimes control previous and next work but play/pause never work. I have tried several solutions but none of them work in the long term : turn off Bluetooth and on again, delete the watch, uninstall Suunto App… Still the same problem.
And this is the case on my 2 Suunto : 9PP and Vertical.
The only effective solution I found is to order the tracks with the headphones.
@Brad_Olwin if you never paired a power pod to your watch that means it got fixed 🙂 but it was the case before, so I guess that’s why it’s still in the documentation.
@far-blue no need to address your question above as all is working now as it should 👍
Thank you all. I managed to activate the vibration feedback.
I’ll write another post at the SuuntoPlus forum as it is related to that topic and not watch specific.
I searched on the shop, the new model should be the one labelled ATH6, that is SUUNTO 22MM ATHLETIC 6 SILICONE STRAP, it’s a pity they are that expensive, by comparing with the price of the watch itself we have:
1 Race S = 6 ATH6 straps (!)
Suunto should solve this aspect to improve user experience. We can’t predict when turning off will be needed and the reasons, specially for a multi-sport watch that covers “radical sports”, at least for me.
It should be add an automatic counter (timer) triggered when we turn on the watch, then after syncing, based in the current time minus the counter it is possible to know the exact time the watch was turned on.
@Egika Thanks. In the end I did the holding of the middle button and the upper button together. Triggering the service menu. Then the 12 sec upper button did it.
On the topic of charging cables… Would be great to have a “puck” with the USB C port on a side. Amazfit’s new watch will have something like this available (or already available, not sure…). Currently, there are no aftermarket solutions available, unless I have missed it…
