Parallel Use Of Movescount + Suunto app

@sartoric
so there is not a way now to get my exercises from suunto app to movescount…
thanks for answers.Maybe using some strange combo with Sport tracker (that I would not suggest) or some other third party like Strava.
-
At this moment I try to do the same. I synced all my Movescount moves to Strava. Around 30 moves are not present in Movescount, but are in Suunto App (most of them not on the watch anymore).
So I tried to find a way to sync the last moves from Suunto App to Strava. Because I didn’t activated the Strava sync immediately, I now have to move them manually.
I tried exporting it as GPX from Sports-tracker and import it in Strava, but then Strava shows me the wrong times (sometimes more then double) for my running exercises.
Syncing with 3rd party tools gives me the same errors as the manual import/export.So if anyone has some great advice…

I’d use both SA and Movescount only if they used the same backend. As a software developer I know that anything short of that is going to be a mess, and I have very low tolerance for that. Is there any reason why SA can’t talk directly to Movescount backend instead of ST one?
By the way, many responses here show that some users are confused and don’t understand that MC App and MC Web is the same thing as far as data storage is concerned.

Small contribution: I used the Movescount App for a run because the watch (Suunto 9 Baro) crashed and was waiting for a reset, and the Suunto App still doesn’t support the HR chest monitor. The result is I still haven’t found a way for the recorded move, that is on the Movescount app, to be synced with my Movescount account. Tried creating a new move, pair/unpair the watch, even removed the Suunto App to try, didn’t change anything so far: the run has a black background indicating it’s not synced and indeed it is not… Any idea? Would really appreciate to have that move synced.

Hello, I’m new, I walk from topic to topic for find informations and it gives me warm heart to see a beautiful community.
I use both applications as well. I wanted to send my new routes created with MC (thanks to the import) in my Suunto 9B. Only, i have to reset the watch because it was connected with SA.
Bug synthesis: My watch no longer displays the data “sunrise” and “sunset”. Neither the sun curve

@AnthonyB hey if the watch does not show these times, just get a GPS fix and it will

@AnthonyB and welcome to the community

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos hi i had several crashes of the watch ( the download symbol appeared on the watch face out of nowhere and i had todo 3 sec restart). This stopped when I removed the mc app. I would love to download the moves to mc via cable but never managed that. Basically I kept forgetting the right order and then could not find a way to resync to mc web after the sync to SA happened. Do you have a trick for that that does not involve resetting all the heart zones and personal settings on the watch?
-
@silentvoyager well I guess that the silent hope is that mc stays only on the web and downloads data from SA exactly like strava runalize etc etc…

That would be better than nothing, but still far from ideal. Creating complex input on a large screen is far more convenient and productive than doing that on a tiny phone screen using touch input. That would include anything that needs to be updated back to watch - screen customization, training plans (when that becomes available), complex workout, routes, etc.
I understand is that Suunto’s direction is to replace the web platform with a web service (API) so that any 3rd party service could do things described above in addition to just consuming the exercise data. In theory Movescount could do that too just like any other 3rd party tool. The real question is whether the API will be rich enough for all of that. If you look at Strava API as an example you’ll see what you can do through the API is very limited subset of what you could do on the website and is pretty much reduced to read-only functions for retrieving info.

Hi, I still use MC to log all my runs with no problems for my Spartan / Ambit 3.
At the same time I’m using SA on Android with NO problems with regard to my Spartan, but I only use this to view runs / moves.
I never seem to have both open at the same time, so not sure if there would be a problem with that or not.I have had NO confusion with routes.
I have had NO crashes on either platform.YES, I feel at the moment the only way forward is to use both MC and SA, i also use Tracker.
I personally find it almost impossible to use SA like I use MC, I’m currently playing around with Runalayze / Trainingpeaks and TrainAsOne to look for a way forward (after 2020) sadly my association with Suunto and being different to all my friends seems to be coming to an end. Garmin Fenix is looking desirable right now, I’m hoping that Suunto turn this around as I genuinely love their watches.
regards,

Je voudrais savoir si tu as déjà utiliser un itinéraire avec ta montre?
Je viens de suivre un itinéraire avec ma spartan, et je viens de remarquer en rentrant chez moi et en connectant ma montre que aucun move apparaît…
Cela veut dire que lorsque on suit un itinéraire avec une montre, aucun move n’est enregistré du coup ??
Merci

@ludo-poy Hi, sorry but we use English as standard communication language

-
@ludo-poy if you struggle with English, you can pm me if you want and we chat in French.
I am pretty sure following a route or not has no impact on whether the move is recorded or not, assuming you did start an exercise and not only use the navigation function. -
@jean-william-cousin thanks!
-
@jean-william-cousin
En effet j’ai utiliser la fonction navigation et non la fonction exercice puis option itinéraire.
Mais si je choisi exercice puis option itinéraire lorsque je lance la montre, à l’écran j’ai .ce que installé comme fonction (dénivelé, temps de course, allure etc) mais comment on suit l’itinéraire dans ce cas?
Merci
-
@ludo-poy Si veux enregistrer et suivre il te faut lancer ton activité aller dans réglages (vers le bas avant le “début”) et choisir navigation, tu retrouveras ta liste et lancer ton activité.
PS: il est recommandé d’utiliser l’anglais sur le forum.
bonne journée

Is it true that people are getting refused movescount mobile sync as well as SuuntoLink (USB) sync?
A friend is asking me how he can sync his watch, says it isn’t working for him and that both SuuntoLink and Movescount app are suggesting installing Suunto app.This is again very poor communication from Suunto. How do they expect their users to figure out what to do on their own … they will probably try to install the suunto app, then run into hang/crash issues when both apps try to access the watch sync.
-
@fejker huh what do you mean? if the MC sync is not happening then they did the sport mode customization etc.
Also there comes a fix for using both app and the watch crashes.
Can you help a bit with what you mean?

It looks like it was browser cache problem or something, he just messaged me that the move magically showed up.
Before that he was getting this:
but after a while it showed up…
He is not tech-savvy and I am his lifeline.
