oSpotter - Gym workout tracker
-
Hey folks, sneak peak for today’s (hopefully) release. I tried to address all the feedback items I could within the platform constraints. And a little redesign on top of it.
Watch: Suunto Race 2
SuuntoPlus:
oSpotter - Workout tracker
oCycler - Indoor cycle FTMS Link
oTicker - Checklist -
Nice looking revamp!
I’m not trying to be annoying but is iOS playing tricks again: I’m not able to open exercise list for exercises 13 and beyond. There should be a list available, yes? And not my sausage fingers
Here’s an idea I had: could the reps be selected via a number list? I think it would be easier than trying to get the cursor just right (again, my sausage fingers) so e.g. when replacing “5”, you don’t need to position cursor after the digit and delete it. So far at least for me, cursor seems to often position before the digit and it’s a nuisance to move it for replacing the value. What a complicated way to describe the problem, hopefully you can get the idea, sorry

@oleksandr Great work! Feature suggestion: I would love to see some data in the app after the workout, e.g. how many kgs lifted or even a breakdown of the data e.g. exercises, sets, reps, weight in some kind of table (if that’s at all possible) - but again, thanks for a great app!
-
@oleksandr a suggestion for future versions that I think would be of general interest is to add internationalization for the most widely spoken languages—such as Spanish, French, German, and Italian—which are easy to implement with IA these days. This should apply to both the configuration interface in the Suunto app (especially the exercise list) and the SuuntoPlus interface on the watch itself.
By the way, thanks for the app!

@isaac.net the internationalization is in plans. I just prioritized actual feedback I received and the UI refinements I wanted to implement in the beginning. I plan to deliver the first 3 additional languages for the v3
@ChrisA thank you, some summary is already there (though tested on android only). I’ll add more weight related summary stuff in the next minor update
@jussim there are 20 exercises currently, and given the keyboard can only hide 1 - 1.5 excercise configs It makes me think that the app viewport on ios is limited to certain height. I’ll try to get the app developer contacts and provide the feedback for them to fix it. Regarding of the selector for the sets end reps instead of the input fields - I’ll consider this, genuinely it seems like a better idea. I need to make sure the change like that wouldn’t break the configs for the existent users (seems like there are plenty of those already)
Thanks everyone for the feedback here and on email. This has been very helpful in making the app better

Oh no, not another poorly translated app.
But I guess he will take feedback on the translations, unlike Suunto itself… -
@2b2bff I’d like to challenge you. What’s the language in question?
-
@oleksandr I’m German speaking…
-
@2b2bff I just want to apologize in advance, but I would have to shorten things like WIEDERHOLUNGEN
With all seriousness you can expect the localization in the next minor update. Both oSpotter and oCycler
Czech and Spanish in the second cohort
Italian and French - third
-
@oleksandr I don’t mind English.
Localized language is only good if done properly. Usually, an automatic translation word by word is not helpful. E.g. when looking at SuuntoPlus app descriptions I switch to English more often than not… -
@2b2bff Speaking of SuuntoPlus app descriptions - those are submitted separately from the app bundle in English. I didn’t know those were auto translated to other languages.
That explains why I do receive the feedback emails and comments through the platform in Czech, Chinese, French, Italian and Spanish though. I honestly thought some folks feel entitled to be responded in their native language
I’m glad I was wrong in my judgement
