Dimitrios Kanellopoulos

Welcome

@Alberto-Yoldi ,
Acceptation for the group is long. Normal?or it should be instant ?

Klunzinger

No mail for me

Alberto Yoldi

@mff73 It was instant for me. But maybe we can just wait for the forum to be set up by @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos so we can all have a proper place to talk about this and clarify

App installed. 30 min trying to pair watch. Yet trying…
The app is exactly the sports-tracker app (remember, spartan watch is no paired yet)

suzzlo

Ahhh, and thanks for joining me the beta!

Dimitrios Kanellopoulos

@suzzlo forget all pairing. From watch and from the phone via Bluetooth and via the app.
Also uninstall movescount.
I will update the faq for Android soon and open the correct channels. Bare with me I have an interval session to complete.

Btw it’s not exactly SportsTracker. However as seen in the faq it’s based on SportsTracker. The suunto app is built on top of that and of course stripped down the parts that do not apply in the suunto scope.

Suunto has acquired SportsTracker so yeah…

Important thing to state perhaps again and again is that in this phase of a very early beta (months to come ahead) we do need your feedback , good or bad, to set us to the correct way to build this app

So feel free to post anything negative or positive.
Feel free to express any concern as all will be heard as I hope we do show this already.

I am no SUUNTO employee and I am here to transfer all the sentiment of users and make things right.

Thanks so much for this.

Alberto Yoldi

I have some feedback already, but I wait for the rigth categories to be setup. I also have some training to do and it will not be done by itself

Dimitrios Kanellopoulos

@suzzlo @Alberto-Yoldi @Mff73

Bugs and issues here:

https://forum.suunto.com/category/14/android-issues-bugs

For general feedback you can post here but make sure you mention android:

https://forum.suunto.com/category/2/suunto-app-questions-feedback

I wanted also to ask you:

Do you prefer to have an isolated section of feedback for Android or a generic for both platforms ?

suzzlo

I will try again tomorrow and if problem persist, I will create a bug report.
I think in this early stage, we need to isolate Android bug not to get crazy our iOS colleges.

Best regards

Hi,
I am in Android test.
Not to much time yesterday to test, just to setup connexion.
Too much things to explore, waou
Too much different form Movescount app, waou

As @suzzlo said, i think it is better for bug to use an Android specific path, but maybe for features it is better to discuss in the same area as iOS.
Good luck to moderators to read all this new flow of testers that will rush here, and maybe don’t have read SuuntoApp iOS beginning of story.

Have a good day, and let us test all of that stuff.

Alberto Yoldi

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos Good morning. For features I think we can discuss on a common forum, as I readed somewhere that both versions will be paired on features. For bugs, as mentioned by @Mff73 , maybe its worth to have an specific section.

kurko

Not sure if all registered android testers received the invitation already, atleast I haven’t seen any email yet?

Please help, very eager to get the testing started!

Mff73

50 New People per day, as said Juuko from suunto.

I’m in the beta group

Saketo Nemo

just joined and tested Suunto App. All smooth for now, but I’ll test it move over

Jouko Tyni

@kurko about 250 individuals added to the beta group now, more will be added next week. There is increasing number of fatal and non-fatal issues via the Crashlytics, we have to look after those now and understand how serious issues we are facing. Most likely all registrees are added to the Google play beta group by the end of next week.

suzzlo

Hi again.

3 months since I created this topic but same sensations.

Suunto App

Inexistent official communications
- No public Roadmap
- No idea if we are going to have UI or not
- No idea when we will have first stable version (or witch are the ones that will be needed for this first version)
- No idea when Android and iOS version will converge
- No idea if the features that we propose and discuss are part of the roadmap (if it exist)
- Please understand me @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos @Jouko-from-Suunto you are working very hard, but we (the community) are spending our time reporting bugs, proposing ideas… and we don’t have any official feedback.
Very low significant improvements in basic features (just new HR % in zones, some bugfixes and some Bluetooth improvements)
- No basic MC features
- No new features (proposed by community or Suunto)
- No Suunto preexisting families (Ambit, DM5,…)

Suunto App Product

When you buy an Garmin, Polar… watch, you have a unified product behind that:

Each time a new feature is released, each part of the platform receives and update implementing it.
Each part of the platform has consistency (same names, same icon, same colors, same values, …)

Retrospective

When we started discussing about new Suunto 3, I still has some hopes, but days are going, and releases don’t have any significant improvements.
I’m very disapointed

Best regards
