Suunto Ocean SW update 2.38.42 (2024 Q4)
-
@mermaid well my watch is back and media still not playing, it doesn’t acknowledge a song is even playing, I uninstalled my ear pods and reinstalled etc and absolutely nothing. This is the dirty from when Suunto said it’s been updated and tested and is working. It is not. Sent video to place of purchase. I just want money back now.

@mermaid What Smartphone ? It works with me until the update
-
@Redhat6 android
-
@mermaid Mine too, and no problem. Before the update it only worked when I launched an activity. Since the update it also works via the widget. Are you sure of your Android permissions ?
-
@mermaid I did a few tests and I also got the same thing as you, no more multimedia controls (although they worked before). I searched a bit and realized that you had to launch the Suunto application to activate the watch’s sync. Once the watch was syncing, the media controls started working

@VoiGAS We miss customizable dive screen and it would be perfect : more info in one screen to avoid pressing button to see gas for instance
-
@ogillot tout a fait d’accord avec vous.

I just bought two (one for my wife and one for me) and even after the December update, the steps do not measure well. You have to move very markedly the arms to detect steps … even in walking mode, in 3km I counted 900 steps and should be at least three times… We are looking forward to an update to fix it because the watch is amazing and it is perfect to be able to do activities and monitor our daily life with our dive watch.

@Alvaro I have the same observation. Step count is very disappointing. I compared side by side an old Garmin Vivomove 2 and the Suunto Ocean. I was missing 2439 steps on the Suunto out of 14005 on the Garmin, after a hike in the forest. The Garmin count has proved quite reliable in the past 6 years.

Sw update in next few weeks?
Hopefully we will get some major updates.
Here are main three wanta- Fix to watch faces (reintoduce diving face, reintroduce active faces.)
- Auto-Detect Exercise mode (optional for those who want to use it as an everyday watch)
3 Show full Notification text (not enough info shown today, so always have to go and open phone anyway, rendering the function pointless.)
