Sports Tracker is what made me come to Suunto with their ads
It was my first sports app on a Nokia with Symbian OS back in 2011 -
@RaDeck Yes, the coaching feature is a (free) part of the Suunto App. So if you own a Suunto watch you will get this automatically in the app without having paying for an add on.
-
@Pavlas they have to make some money somehow, if they don’t the app will close.

@tomasbartko Thanks for your confirmation mate!
-
@isazi Yeah, no problemo. But pretty much everything here is paid for. I’m surprised they don’t pay for activity.
-
By the way, as I was about to look for a similar thread, but ended up here. Is user data stored on a server somewhere? Will I have access to them for life? (Can I download this data and save it on my own hard drive?) And another thing: Is Suunto thinking of transferring its application to the PC as well? Route planning is so far much more comfortable on a larger screen and using the keyboard. From what I’ve tried, I could be wrong, Suunto hasn’t made a full tablet version yet, i.e. the phone version works, but you can see that the format is carried over from the phone screen.

@Ars-Vitae this is probably not the right place to discuss this, as you are talking about Suunto App and not Sports Tracker.

@Pavlas My daughter has an Apple Watch Ultra, I encouraged her to use the SportsTracker app. She has a subscription, which is not expensive and loves the app. I think a great way to encourage folks to use the ecosystem and then buy a Suunto. I now have her at least seeing the value of the Suunto watch. Not sure I can ever drag the AWU off her wrist though.

@Ars-Vitae Suunto desktop app is available on Mac
S9PP
S5 -
@Francesco-Pagano Thanks, I had no idea:)
-
@Francesco-Pagano but only for M1 and newer, or?
-
@tomasbartko yes, only Apple ARM CPUs.
-
@isazi it’s a pity, but thanks.
-
@tomasbartko it is the same app that runs on iOS, similar to how Windows can run the Android Suunto App
-
@isazi Got it. Well I upgrade approx. once every 10 year. Now I need to wait 6 more years, 6 more years …
-
@Ars-Vitae it is pretty easy to run the SA on a PC using an Android emulator. This is discussed on this forum in another thread.
-
@MdzOtt Thanks, but luckily for me I am an Apple device user.

I am aware of this, but Sports Tracker has a lot to do with some of the issues I have raised. For example, with the collection of my activity data on the server. But if you’re already writing about it, I have a question: what is actually the difference in functionality between Sports Tracker and the Suunto App in the desktop version, if we observe similar data in both apps? Apart from the difference, of course, that Sport Tracker is in the Web version and the Suunto App is a separate app.
-
@Ars-Vitae I am not sure what do you want to know, Sports Tracker and Suunto App share the same technology, the difference being that Sports Tracker is aimed at people not having Suunto watches, and Suunto App is for people that have Suunto watches.

@isazi That is, at a functional level, they are doing virtually the same thing. This is the kind of information I was looking for. Many thanks. And on that second point, what does Suunto do with my data, the one that displays in both apps. Does it store them for life for the duration of my account activity? Can I archive them for myself after a period of time?
