SOFTWARE UPDATE 2.35.34 Q2
-
@Tieutieu, I totally agree! I’ve tested the feature extensively on a 40k and 3.050mt elevation gain Skymarathon—although I didn’t look too much at the watch in key climbs, the feature was so helpful, especially if you are in a race and also bad weather is predicted.
Excellent addition and implemented much better IMHO than Garmin.
-
@Tieutieu I did find it useful too, but tested only on bike. Once I was WTF when message appeared for 2km climb avg 13%, I did not expect that
But my vertical got stuck mid ride, after replenishing in store, I could not unpause it, then I rebooted it with long press on upper button. At least the activity was saved, but now I have two 100km rides instead of one 200km

Is there a list somewhere of all the small features that have been added to update?Been with a Suunto on my wrist since Ambit2
Currently alternating between Race titanium & Vertical titanium solar.
Would love a Vertical with amoled display. -
Hi, I did multiple cycling sessions under clear sky mid day when the sun it’s above your head literally. I use handle bar adapter for the watch so it “sees” the sky/sun. After 2 hours and 15 minutes of cycling I lost almost 10% battery life. This is ridiculous by any shred of imagination, basically solar doesn’t work anymore. I did a test with 1 hour and 30 minutes 5-6% battery off.
Display standby is disabled (If you have it like this your watch has it’s brightness completely turned off during your bike ride and you can read the display because of the MIPs) even though battery drops crazy fast
Brightness - low
Raise to wake - lowI had the vertical solar like this since day one.
I also use chest strap for heart rate so the HR from the watch is disabled (it does not consume the battery).
I did not used any suuntoPlus Apps in the testing above.Overnight I noticed it drops 4%. It was 2% before.
With all of this and that the battery drops way too fast in 5 days 45% off this is not acceptable. I’ll try to let it drain completely and do a clean charge.

Is there a list somewhere of all the small features that have been added to update?it is rather odd that new features introduced with upgrades are not properly listed and explained, and that users must dig into to learn something more, wondering how much users that do not follow this forum can understand. The most exhaustive list is likely on the top of this discussion, the Release Notes in the official Sunnto Support pages is quite incomplete

Something has changed ? Routes synchronization with Suunto app seems faster today
-
I agree. I love the fact that I can now see the altitude/barometer on the main watch face. But being able to toggle between the complications (baro/alto/solar/weather) would be even better.

A note on the new pause screen - now it counts up your total paused time, which is nice, but somehow this isn’t saved as elapsed time in the app, or total paused time or anything like that. Could do with adding as it is clearly recorded by the watch.
-
@Egika Okay, so it seems to be a bug. If somebody needs further information, contact me.
-
@Mitch9 if it works for me, I’d say it is not a bug, but maybe a configuration thing…?
Maybe someone else can check on Vertical? -
@Egika
Yep, I mean on Vertical (mine too) it doesn’t work in that wf -
Hi, the new display options per activity are great. But can we get an option to never dim the screen? Without it, the watch is unusable as a cycling computer / navigation mounted on bike handlebars.
-
Two Suunto sport apps I really like as part of the update is ultra walking and indoor climbing.
I mostly run with my dog and there times when I have to stop to let her pee or drink or sniff etc. knowing how much time of my overall run I actually spent walking vs standing vs actually running is great and useful information.
Indoor climbing is great for my climbing session. Combined with the gym timer it really provides useful info for more productive training sessions.
Amazing Suunto well done! Keep it up !
-
@BastMaSVSRS9PP For you the Indoor Climbing app works?
Not for me:
https://forum.suunto.com/topic/11059/indoor-climbing?_=1720445103151Can you describe your set up in the other thread and show us your display?

This is an option only in RACE because of the screenTHanks!!! that is a pitty. I thought it would be possible to configure backlight options (intensity) per sport mode…

I think I have an issue with battery drainage.
i am loosing > 5% every 24hrs. I do not use it that much. without gps for example lately (i am injured and cannot do my weeky run with Gps)
i have charged 100% the 3rd of July. I have 34% battery leftntoday (8th of july) i have registered less than 10hrs exercises.
My config is fine, appart the 24hrs Hr tracking. every thing is off:
brithness: low
standby: off
raise tonwake: offi think my watch is far from the numbers announced by suunto and by some of you in this forum .
i have the vertical solar… and I am getting a week of baettery now. I used ot have 10-11 days. and I am supposed to get at least the double of that with such a watch.
What do you recommend, think?

@Luis-Andés-Olmedo said in SOFTWARE UPDATE 2.35.34 Q2:
Hope folks understand this is not a Suunto thing, it’s pretty much any watch with an OLED screen (think Apple watch and 24 hour battery life - Race still far exceeds that). It’s a trade off - superior display, colours and readability, but screen has to time out to save battery and screen burn in.That’s why there are choices with brands between MIPS (Vertical/Garmin Fenix) and OLED (Race/Epix). I had the Vertical and only miss the battery longevity one trip per year (multi day backpacking).
For cycling I use a Hammerhead Karoo 2 as it syncs to Suunto App and much easier to read at a glance.

A follow-up regarding step counter;
Today my watch and the step counter works flawless. Still a little bit low, but that’s 100% acceptable because thats better to be on the low side, than other way around.
Before today, Monday the steps almost entirely did stop counting between 4000-5000 steps and that i find strange.
