SOFTWARE UPDATE 2.19.42 January 27, 2022

[markytarky]

@surfboomerang I never had an issue with battery drain during the day or night. What I’m saying is that sleep tracking with SPO has the same consumption as sleep tracking without it. This is not the case for Garmin, where SPO night readings are on during the whole night and eating the battery dramatically.

Using SpO2 at night consumes (slightly?) more battery than not doing it, just so you all know.

[Patrick Löffler]

@hankwang Two reasons. I have tried several different watches and the comfort in wearing the S9P is unmatched. It’s simply the most comfortable. And actually I like the Suunto app much more than the Garmin one.

@halajos fix is on the way backend wise. Issue was the HU lang for some corner case.

If you are too eager to use an s+ now you can change the phone lang to eng to bypass this issue but I think our backend guys within the hour(s) should have this fixed.

Do I need to do anything on my side after the fix is done? I know it may take more time to fix the backend, I’m just wondering if it’s already done and there’s something else wrong. The symptom is the same.

[markytarky]

@isazi well either I have something wrong with how the battery status is shown or it is really slightly (1-2% more than with SPO off).

[Egika]

@markytarky nightly SpO2 measurement has only a negelctible impact on the battery. Diffcult to state in % as these may vary.

After this update, I have a problem with “Sports Mode Customization” menu.
It is not updated and stuck in the “Updating” status.

I’ve tried soft reset of my s9p but in vein.
Should I do a hard reset? Is there any other solution?

Anybody has the same issue or found solution?

[dulko79]

@soojong-moon I can access the list of sports and can create new sport profiles. I have just created one.

One small thing I noticed on outdoor watchface. Black line on baro is missing when using black background. On white it is there. Previous FW had it.

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@halajos should be now ok?

[markytarky]

@egika that’s what I said, it closed to zero. Compared to Garmin Fenix 6 pro, where if you switch on the night SPO reading, it has a significant impact on the battery. Of course, the reading frequency and algorithm are different. If you ask me: it doesn’t make sense to read the SPO too often during sleep. Why so, right?

[Egika]

@markytarky exactly. You would not expect SpO2 to change significantly over one night.

[halajos]

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos it wasn’t until I changed the phone language to English. With that setting I added the S+ features I need. Then switched back to Hungarian and the S+ features are still there now.

[surfboomerang]

@jugger The outdoor watchface has some more issues.
Maybe collect all those issues here: https://forum.suunto.com/topic/6618/suunto-9-peak-watchface-issues

[aroo7]

It’s nice to get another update, thanks!
But one thing is beyond me to understand - Suunto still doesn’t support any structured workouts?!! How is this possible in a professional sports watch? Years go by…
I wish to receive SW in the next update.
Best regards

@aroo7 wish harder!
it might come true then

if @aroo7 succeeds he needs to teach me how to wish harder
