[Tieutieu]

Official news/teasing from the app !

[EzioAuditore]

@Tieutieu will this be the Q3 release or the hotfix ( if it can be called that after 2 months ) Or both combined.

[Tieutieu]

@EzioAuditore With the leaks 2 weeks ago and this announcement now, I guess release of this feature is close !

[Antoine]

@Tieutieu i hope the “drain issue” will be corrected also

[Egika]

@EzioAuditore a bit of both

If you zoom in on the screen, the app looks completely new designed. Would love to see that redesign.

[isazi]

@Patrick-Löffler-0 I think that is just a designer mockup, nothing that has been tested yet.

[Patrick Löffler 0]

@isazi Thanks. Still looks awesome. More compact.

[Egika]

@isazi @Patrick-Löffler-0 mine beta looks exactly like this.
But I don’t think there is much new on this screen.

[isazi]

@Egika Android scrolls horizontally, this is the first time I see widget stacked vertically

Edit: they are not stacked vertically, they just look vertical when not zoomed it

@Tieutieu it is important to prepare the users for the change, to avoid what happened last time [1]. As Suunto announced watchfaced will be unpaired from the firmware, and distributed in the S+ store. New watchfaces can then be developed, and distributed, faster.

[1] when users updated the watch and found a different watchface and complications from what they previously had

[Tieutieu]

@isazi let’s see what “new watchfaces developpement means” (By Suunto => I’ll be confident, or by others ? => I’ll be cautious !)

I also wish that old and very demanded improvements will come ! (my top wishes remain the rep counter and “bip” countdown in native structured workouts)

[isazi]

@Tieutieu as mentioned before, there is one main new feature in this Q3 release (guess which), and a long list of fixes. Q4 may bring more.

[Tieutieu]

@isazi I’m a patient guy !

[TitaniumDave]

I’m hoping this means we can curate our collections and clear out watch faces we don’t like or use. I like to keep things concise, less scrolling and searching.

[isazi]

@TitaniumDave same for apps, if you don’t need it, don’t install it

[dulko79]

@isazi any news on Suunto Coach improvements?

[isazi]

@dulko79 that is an app change, not a firmware one

[isazi]

Maybe it is better to continue this specific discussion here https://forum.suunto.com/topic/11407/watchfaces-in-s-store/

[TitaniumDave]

No word on pricing for these new watch faces yet?
