@Yves-Jenni This morning again: I selected walking mode, but as soon as I start the activity, the display goes dark and there’s no way to turn it back on. Right now, I’m still, I’ve finished my walk, but the watch is practically dead. As with previous times, the activity in question was carried out on the beach, so I don’t know if the issue could be related to some sort of display protection. For completeness, I should point out that the display brightness is set to “high.”

@Yves_ @Pobyms I found out that the poll swimming data fields “Current lap: swimming distance (Manual)” and “Current lap: duration (Manual)” are responsive to the bottom button. This is, when I push it those counters reset, which allows to start a new interval freshly (I guess that Suunto calls intervals “laps” ?). But, I have the same problem as reported here: the specs on the product page of the Suunto Run for Swimming advertise that the Suunto Run should detect swim strokes, swim style, pauses and breakdown a pool swim into multiple intervals if there are pauses in between. Mine does none of these… Here is a pool swim I just did a couple hours ago, where I swam 5x 50m, 3x 300m and finally 1x 1000m, all crawl with long glides after pushing from the wall. Notice as there is no breakdown into intervals whatsoever, no swim style detection and the last column (stroke average) is empty: [image: 1760447843783-img_3747.jpeg] I’m not sure why another user here (@herlas) mentions above that this is a known issue and unsure “if this will come”, considering the product page advertises the watch as capable and supposed to do exactly these things … this is a deal breaker for me, as I expect to be swimming as much as running. But, I still have not found any clarity regarding these features: is the Suunto Run supposed to give metrics for pool swimming or not ? (just like any Garmin watch would…)

@neilme I wasn’t referring to customizing the default structured workout screen, that’s not possible in any Suunto as you said, but I was saying that only on Suunto Run you cannot add your own screens to the structured workout. On all other Suunto watches, while you cannot customize the Suunto Guide screen, you can add your own screens along side, this isn’t the case for Suunto Run. Interval pace, interval distance on Suunto Run are useless right now, you won’t see them during a structured workout because on Suunto Run as I said before, you cannot add your own screens, so you’re left with a few screens Suunto makes available during structure workouts and that’s it.

@herlas Got it! Tried it now and it works fine as you say. Thanks !

@Gilles-Maiol-Vendranas-Rullier I was in the same loop just last week with my 9 Peak Pro. Really frustrating! What helped in my case is that I removed all paired BT devices/sensors from the watch and restarted and repaired the watch with the phone. Coincidentally or not, it started happening right after I enabled dual-BLE on my HR strap. After the actions taken above it works again, sort of. The weather doesn’t get updated automatically like it used to and “find my phone” function fell off too. No idea why Suunto is doing this to us. Time to figure it out.

This morning, as soon as I woke up, I synced the watch and activated PS. After a couple of hours, I disabled it and synced again: [image: 1760771064544-signal-2025-10-18-090113_002.png] So, unless I’ve missed something, there was no HR activity during those two hours, and that’s the behavior I expect from PS. I’m not saying you’re wrong, of course, so it’s best to ask @herlas why there are two different results.

@isazi just to report that the latest update or the few charging cycles or both have improved the battery

@Kriss said in Suunto Run restarts during activity: Also wonder how many days of battery life people are getting? I run every day for an hour with the chest strap, HR 24/7 with the sleep/HRV functions activated, no aod, no notifications, always performace mode when training, which means ~10% per day. The latest update seems pretty good in terms of battery life.

@Milan-Šádek the same as Garmin says, but it is only half of the truth. You can do the simple (or lazy) approach, to send every notification to the watch as you get them from the notification center. But you could also implement a filter between the notification and the push to the watch. Or even inside the watch. I get that iOS possibly limits you to find out what apps are installed, so you cannot choose in the beginning. But I remember the Galaxy Watch Active2, where I could define on the watch that I never want to have a notification from “this app” again, as I got a notification there. So it would be possible to build a blacklist even directly in the watch, if the notification is pushed to the watch directly from iOS… As @SimonDe says other companies go that extra mile…

“What I read at its launch is that this was excluded since it is a new system and design, but that it would be integrated in the future—let’s see if that’s true.”

@cheetah694 thank you for the answer

@Brad_Olwin Do you have any news about this? Thank you!

For my Suunto Run, it’s the same setting for activities and daily use.

If I remember from another thread correctly, the watch works out the metrics, not the app. So anything imported does not go through this loop and the detailed metrics are missing.

@Brad_Olwin thanks everyone. Let me reset the watch and try again .

My wife’s watch behaved funny this morning after the update. All the buttons got frozen and the watch was repeatedly doing soft reset for some time. Then finally it got unfrozen but it seemed that the watch actually did a factory reset. After that the watch has been upgraded again and it was okay for 5 min and then the thing with soft resets repeated. Then, when it got unfrozen again. I did one more factory reset myself and now it seems that the watch is ok. The latest software is there. Has anyone experienced something similar?

@brechtvb You’re right, unfortunately I didn’t pay much attention to the title… I apologize.

@Hari-Seldon yes

@Miroslava yeah this option isn’t there for the Run, you can’t disable OHR per exercise mode. @Mi_chael it sounds like it’s per design based on the post below - if you have a hr strap paired, that takes precedence and data from that will be reflected in the activity stats even though OHR appears to also be recording. https://forum.suunto.com/post/171418

zonesense (if not possible in real time at least in app support would be great) I would really love having it in real-time
