@Fenr1r yup, this is a bus stop
@duffman19 this makes sense as simple shelter, but still the bed icon is a little too much for this category

… with a shelter (rather than a simple sign on a pole), AKA “Bus shelter”

Yep, definitely. Suunto already has good, separate icons for shelters and lodging listed in their POIs. Like @isazi mentioned, it’ll just take some time to implement them and sort the info effectively.

Just to be noticed : maps update is significantly faster on my SV1 vs my SRs.
Same WiFi, both watches at the same place.

@Tieutieu interesting.
I found V1 very slow compared to V2

[Tieutieu]

@Egika please don’t tempt me : for now I resist to SV2 because I love my SV1 but the latest update is sooo cool on my SRs…I understand that everything would be faster on SV2 !

@Tieutieu
Good that the need to update maps does not occur every week

Ah, true. Vertical 2 and Race 2 maps download should be faster than Vertical 1 / Race / Race S

@Horizontal_2

I can’t update any maps. I live in The Netherlands and have The Vertical 2. The app doesn’t seem to be upgraded, but I’m not on beta.

Delete the map you want to update and then download it again. This way you’ll get the updated map data.
Also consider deleting watch maps you don’t need anymore while you can, using your current app version, because after Suunto app update, you might not be able to delete maps, until you update them first. (This limitation is known and will hopefully be fixed later.)

@Squirrel Thanks! Will try this
