[GiPFELKiND]

@larrybbaker i dont see this, too. No new data fields.

[Łukasz Szmigiel]

@GiPFELKiND maybe it’s Suunto App version issue?

[GiPFELKiND]

@Łukasz-Szmigiel in android my beta app is at the newest one. No update there.

[larrybbaker]

@GiPFELKiND I was referring to the map issue

[Pavlas]

@larrybbaker Try zooming 100, 50 or 25 meters.

[GiPFELKiND]

@larrybbaker do you all have the new data fields options!? I dont have “others” with GPX signal or Battery level and weather and wind forecast.

[herlas]

@GiPFELKiND just make sure app syncs once, if not kill it and it should be there.

[SuperFlo75]

I just updated my SV without any trouble… we will see how it works … for today, I found the new data fields

[Александр Даниленко]

@pavel.samokha no new data field on my Race S as well

Suunto app version 5.3.5

[GiPFELKiND]

@Александр-Даниленко apple or Android?

[larrybbaker]

@GiPFELKiND I do. iOS Latest beta.

[larrybbaker]

@Pavlas I did… not seeing the dashes

[Александр Даниленко]

@GiPFELKiND android

[Pavlas]

@larrybbaker For example, footpaths and unpaved roads are marked in this way.

[larrybbaker]

@Pavlas i do see dotted lines for the trails where I have a route… just not as blocky as yours?

[Pavlas]

@larrybbaker You got it in the second picture. It wasn’t until this update. I don’t like it at all. Especially in the city, it looks very ugly.

I think what @Pavlas is seeing are sidewalks which now have the bulky dashed lines applied. This looks a bit of a mess in busy areas that are micro-mapped. What @larrybbaker has pictured are trails (foot trails, paths, etc.) and those look relatively unchanged in the update.

I’ve noticed that roads and other solid-line paths are now outlined when zoomed at 50m and below. This is a subtle change, but adds clarity between roads and other paths when zoomed close.

The real question, though, is when is the map data itself going to be updated? It’s been over a year and half since my area has seen any updates. There are a number of trail networks that are now out of date on the watch maps. Even Garmin has updated their TopoActive maps to include OSM changes from the past year. And I thought their update process was slow.

Here’s the map before the update

And here’s the map after the update.

New one looks “cheap”. Old one more “clear” and less agressive.

This is a massive update. Kudos Suunto!
