          @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos i have 2.46.14
          Since last firmware update i notice every night Blood Oxygen is reporting around 92% before update it was usually 96-98%. And i am not able to measure manually. Tried many times in last days. Even tried soft reset. No change. Unable to measure manually.

          Update: after soft reset it is even worse, last night 88%, soon i will need oxygen mask 😄

          Update2: after rollback to 2.46.4 manually measures again, but results are low values. 88-93%, after 5th try i finally got 98% but since other 4 was around 90% it is hard to trust

          Update3: two nights after rollback bloodoxygen worked and measured 96-98% rannge

                I had problems before but with 2.48.16 it works fine. Did you tried soft reset?

                        My Suunto Race 2 stopped measuring blood oxygen after updating to version 2.48.16. Manual measurements don’t work at all, and the nighttime readings are inaccurate. A soft reset didn’t help.

                              It worked for me well but last two nights bloodoxygen recorded around 85% and i am not able to measure manually. Restart didn’t helped too.

                              Prior this i had one night watch on night table instead of hand. Not sure if related to it.

                                If Suunto dive computers are as accurate as the Race 2, then good night.

                                  @Tomas5 Hey, I’m going to try to describe how the oxygen measurement (which works very reliably on all Suunto watches, by the way) works. The most important thing to note is that any light shining on the sensor negatively affects the measurement. To ensure reliable readings during the day, I take the watch off and hold it on my wrist where it usually sits. I don’t fasten the strap, though. I hold the watch between two fingers, then gently press it against my skin and start the measurement without moving my hands. This gives you perfect control and shows you that no light is reaching the sensor. Just try it out. The important thing is not to press the watch down hard, just gently.

                                  If it doesn't challenge you, it doesn't change you. #lifewithasthma #runwithasthma #nevergiveup #pushinglimits #adventurestartshere Suunto Ambit 3 Peak , D9, 9 Baro, 9 Peak, Vertical Ti, Race , RaceS Courtney, Race 2, Vertical 2, SA (Beta) Android🏃🏼🧗🚵

                                    @GiPFELKiND Also ich trage meine ganz normal wie eine Uhr. Und sollte ich mal messen dann funktioniert es perfekt. Aber in Wirklichkeit ist es halt eine schöne Funktion die kein Mensch braucht. Aber schön wenn man sie hat.

                                        @GiPFELKiND Ich meine nur dass die Messung auch beim normalen Tragen supi funktioniert.

                                            @GiPFELKiND short answer: sounds good, doesn’t work
                                            long answer: i already tried multiple ways including what you describe, i tried measuring during evening when it was already dark outside and no light at room. It doesn’t work at all. Until recent few days. It worked just normal 99% time and manual measurements was successfull and night measurement measured around 96-98% every night, no problem at all. Only just few nights ago it started to measure values below 90% at night and manual measurements doesn’t work 100% of times. I really don’t believe that sudenly from day to day i somehow lost ability to do manual measurement from 99% successful to 100% unsuccessful. Now it behaves exactly like with earlier version of firmware where i had this anoying bug.
