SuuntoPlus guides improvement suggestions
-
Hi all,
I’m using a guided workouts mostly for running (syncing with the runna app), for the past 2 weeks on the race s.
I’m suggesting the next modifications -- Enlarge font size of guided text. It is extremely small and it is almost impossible to read at a glance.
- Add another screen after the guided screen, which has a text of the next lap/session/guided work. This way you know if you have another interval coming after this cool down or something else.
- When starting a workout and choosing the guided session (choosing running activity and choosing to activate the planned guided workout), have an option to view the workout as text. This way you get a reminder to today’s workout.
The first 2 points are essential. The 3rd one is nice to have (but extremely nice to have…).
Thanks.

@ET3PO with respect to point 2, you can kind of fudge it by messing with interval setup and naming a bit more, but it’s 100% not ideal as it stands.

@ET3PO point 3, seeing a text summary, would be very helpful.

Upvoted. The built-in interval text and colours are great, but when I’m doing a guided session, that text is “really” hard to see and I’ve got decent eyesight.
Also be great to see what’s up next / where you are in the guided session.

@ET3PO i also had problems with the runna workouts. i don’t think my issues were the same as yours but you might be interested any how! i posted about them on the reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/runna/comments/1iu284v/feature_request_improve_workout_display_on_suunto/ - seems like workouts sent from intervals.icu look a lot better, so i think some problems might be at runna’s end.
I’d also add that suunto really need pace alerts when you’re ahead/behind the pace required for the interval!

I agree with these ideas!
Although if I had to boil it down to bare necessity, it would be to at least know which interval you are on. Unless I missed something, I could not figure out a way to see this on my Suunto Ocean. When doing 15 reps, it’s easy to lose count.
My old Ambit 3 would give me a record of 10/15 for example.
