      @Brad_Olwin for a change I’m with @GiPFELKiND. Often it is mentioned on this form “you shouldn’t buy a watch for features is might get in the future, but what it currently has”. Now the problem with Suunto is that “current functionality” is kind of a volatile concept… every new release for the past year had some new features, but also also (regression) bugs. I also dislike the new UI also and would like to go back, also because the OHR would turn off again when I say so. Loosing HRV is holding me back… for the moment

      Some older firmware:

          @twekkel I understand and think if enough want changes in the UI set up a vote or a request and see if you can get back what you are missing.

                Thanks for setting up the votes! It’s great proof of how difficult it is for companies to operate a change that most will like, while keeping everyone happy

                  For me, the consistency of the UI with the physical buttons is a fantastic feature. I don’t use the touch screen at all, and after some weeks with the new UI I’m riding again that wave of the “muscle memory” for my most used “workflows”. And I love it. So, I understand that if there’s no physical left button, there’s no left swipe. Could it be there? Sure… but I feel that this would break that consistency. Not judging the design choice by Suunto nor the convenience for some users of having that left swipe: that’s simply how I use my watch. 😅

                    @fv4500 The middle button is used to move horizontally. This was the same before, and it is the same now, to get to a single pinned widget. Scrolling across the display is faster and simply incomparably more convenient than the buttons, but it does not work in contact with water and a gloved hand. It is therefore important to keep the buttons fully functional in all conditions. This is how I understand the idea of the watch designers.

                      The only thing that bothers me with the new UI is being unable to quickly jump to watchface by holding the middle button.

                      Somehow it gets back only to mini-widgets and requires another press and hold to get to watchface. It works as before in settings though.

                        @Łukasz-Szmigiel I find that two quick presses on the bottom right button to get back to the watch face from a widget is just as fast or maybe even quicker than a long press on the middle button.

                          @Łukasz-Szmigiel You are right, for example, when we are in the settings in whatever function by holding down the middle button you can see how it jumps back through each menu step of the interface.

                              @Łukasz-Szmigiel Good catch! I’m talking about the Race which I believe has the same UI as 9PP after the recent updates.

                              Is the two quick presses on the bottom button not a viable option for returning to the main watch face on the 9PP?

                                @Mads-Hintz-Madsen nope. Controls are different between Race and Vertical / 9PP.

                                Bottom button in 9PP just scrolls down.

                                  Bottom button in 9PP just scrolls down.

                                  Ah, yeah. Makes sense due to the lack of a crown in Vertical/9PP.

                                          What do you mean? You pin a favorite widget until you have a new favorite and pin that instead. What’s bad about that?

                                            @Mads-Hintz-Madsen By default this position on the right is empty. So I see pin/unpin scenario just the same as on/off. Now you have to have your favourite widget but what if you don’t have one? Moreover all of the widgets are on your fingertips on the bottom screen where you can put your favourite widget on the top of the list

                                            As far as I remember, on the previous software I was able to switch off all the widgets and leave with watch face only. It was really good
