No improvement of the Resources algorithm?

@maszop said in Suunto Software update Q1 (2.53.42):

I haven’t had a chance to test the new software in the mountains yet, but I don’t like the 40m distance, which will display an “off-route” message and will likely cause Climb Guidance to stop working.

In my opinion, this distance is definitely too short for more rugged terrain or, for example, in winter, when it’s not always safe to stick to the trail (avalanches).

The new off-route detection has no fixed distance anymore.
It is dynamic adjusting to your current speed and direction.

@jannis i cannot say cause i dont know. But for the first time ever my Ressourcen goes down, i feel sick and the Ressourcen for the first time ever says this… Most of the time today i spent at the couch, cause i feel sick. And the Ressourcen goes down In Normal day my Ressourcen goes up while sitting at the couch and the watch says Recovery. Hope the best for the Algorithmus but i think Something new was changed with the Update from today

Specifically, I mean the distance from the planned route, while moving more or less parallel to it.

I’m testing all the new features. I have to say the Suunto analysis, design, and development teams have done an excellent job.

Over the past months (even years… but let’s stick to the last few months), there have been many reports about improvements, missing features, bugs, and various suggestions, and I didn’t expect Suunto to take all the material shared on the forum and implement solutions for all of it in this update.

Really great work, but… it’s not over yet. There are still several things to fix (resource calculation, sleep monitoring, HR sensor crashes, multi-device sync optimization), but given this direction, I’m confident they’ll be addressed soon.

Keep it up, Suunto!

@Łukasz-Szmigiel Well said!
I was still hoping for some minor fixes but I can live with its current state.
Got my 9PP-T in Summer 23 and got 3 years of updates.
Now I hope for some more years of working as it is.

@Łukasz-Szmigiel I had 9PP for a while, I think with all these updates, it has aged gracefully.

@isazi Hello Isazi,
I take the opportunity to push this “Max number of apps” issue: https://forum.suunto.com/topic/14940/bug-maximum-suuntoplus-apps-reached.

If you there is a more proper way to report an issue, let me know. Thanks!

Why didn’t the Race 1 get the Map Labels Update?

I was really hoping it would be a New Features Test Day for me and my SV1. Alas, it’ll just be another trail run day without staring at my watch too much (which is arguably better!).

In a way, I’m actually relieved that my MIPs are starting to drop off the update train. I often struggle with the idea of having too much technology on my wrist. The more features my watch has, the more I want to interact with it. And I’m not sure that’s a good thing.

As @Łukasz-Szmigiel and others have said here, these watches have had a good run and are miles (kilometers?) ahead of anything I had when I first started trail running. Glad to hear that some of the updates will eventually be coming to the SV1 as there are for sure a few features I’m a little jealous of. As for the 9PP, I still think it’s one of the best minimalist sports watches money can buy.

(…although, I would love it if Suunto were able to fix a few of the niggles posted about over here. )

@Manuel-Extreme
Schlafüberwachung erkennung der wachzeiten jetzt optimiert? Oder kommt das noch ? Sonst überragendes update ganz ganz toll

isazi

@Thibault-B. does this happen with the new firmware?

Sportsfreund

What does the new speedometer symbol mean in the 90‘ watchface?
And were did you find an official answer?

I wouldn’t know, it’s not specified in the release notes…

isazi

@Sportsfreund I believe you are referring to the icon at the top where the baro trend is, it means you just installed the new firmware and need to wait a few hours for the watch to compute the baro trend

Hahaha ok, I’d been wondering for weeks whether it was actually the wrong icon to indicate a positive trend

I agree with everyone who already said that S9PP remains a great watch that has received robust and useful updates in the past years. For me the last great addition was Climb Guidance 2.0 so I would have appreciated new improvements, but I can live with what I have. I’m on the 2.50.28 firmware and have no major issue (HR sensors disconnecting when mounted on bike? Luckily it’s the first time I hear that).

ADidier

No small update for the Suunto RUN?

isazi

@ADidier different software, different update schedule
