@TELE-HO If the watch is configured in metric units the choices are m/hr or m/min. If the watch is configured in imperial units - ft/hr or ft/min.

@Brad_Olwin
my us workmates use metric, too.
good to know about the graph. today Iām still heavily in love with my appsā¦ letās see how all this turns out finally

@silentvoyager I have been wondering about that. I have increased my backlight brightness to 100% and still canāt read messages or see my watch face very well when indoors. Is there some way to remedy that? I bought the watch based on the photos I saw online where the watch face was easily visible!

@Kristen-Maria
Have you check you donāt have DND mode, or powersaving mode on ?
100% backlight is huge.Suunto Spartan Ultra (since 2016) FW: 2.8.24 (retired)
Suunto Vertical all black
Wife : S9PP
SA: Always the latest beta :)
Android 13, Galaxy S205G -
@Mff73 I donāt have power saving mode on, but how do I get to DND mode? Iāve only had the watch for a day and have been trying everything to try to get the screen to be more visible.
-
@Kristen-Maria
Long press middle button, and first option is DND mode (with a trigger slider) -
@Mff73 oh, Do Not Disturbā¦no, both modes are off. Iām talking about visibility mode indoors. Outdoors I can see fairly well. Itās like the initial poster says, indoor visibility is very poor. There is very little change between, say 45% and 100% brightness. It is definitely not twice the brightness. Thinking about taking it to a store that sells Suuntos and looking at their floor models.

@Kristen-Maria
if it is so hard to read the watch, enable the backlight in stand by -
@Saketo-Nemo I have also done that. Iām thinking about doing a hard reset to see if that solves the issue. I feel like I have covered everything and I see nothing online that indicates this is a common problem. I want to wear the watch while training and also in daily non-training use, so itās important for me to be able to see the time. Sport modes are very visible outdoors, so that is not a problem, fortunately.
-
Forgive me if I insist, but I want to be sure there is no misunderstanding due to English.
I understand that you see it well during the sport. My advice was to turn the light on in standby mode in clock mode.
The specific because it seems to me impossible not to see the time with the backlight activated
Did I express myself well? -
@Saketo-Nemo Yes, I understood your English well. Thank you for the advice!
-
mmmā¦ok, Iām sorry itās not served
-
@Kristen-Maria
could you please upload a foto (without flash in your usual ambient) to show the community how it looks?
maybe a close one and from usual view on the watch distance? -
@TELE-HO
It looks a lot brighter in the photo. Iāve played with it a little bit and certain colors look brighter than other colors on the watch faces.
-
@Kristen-Maria
does somebody know the screen technologie s9 vs fenix?
Iāve had a fenix 3 couple of years back and never had an issue reading the display in lowlight -
Just for the sake of chatting ā¦ Iāve set backlight to 30
Of course not an S9, maybe itās different. -
@Kristen-Maria I have found gold and green colors are easiest to see, the others appear much dimmer to me. I have my backlight at 30% and turn on standby only in winter.
-
@Brad_Olwin
s9 seems to have a completely different screen technology than fenix 3ā¦
I never used backlightā¦ only in the dark -
I wear two watches, one is S9b another is a normal automatic watch, I never use s9 for time.
I have to move several time my wrist to find a best view on s9 time mode. itās not convenient during a business meeting or datingā¦

I am not happy with the height measurement of the barometer, this is usually far off even if I calibrate this each time at the beginning of a hike.
Therefore, I would like to know if there is an option to measure the height via GPS
