A communication will come in October.
So waiting a lot.Complexe Intervalles is great feature of my A3 Peak but not the only one…
Come on Suunto !!!

@Mi_chael @Mi_chael it was a yes/no or we don’t know question. Probably you don’t know.
I will come on Suunto if I provide what I NEED which is complex intervals and planned trails.
It’s a grate hardware but without those functions it’s not more useful to me than a fifteen € simple heart rate monitor. -
@Nikos-K
no one knows, but @Mi_chael gave you the best answer we know.
you must be honest, suunto will always be much more worth than a 15 € fitness tracker… especially ambit. it was the flagship and is still a top notch product
-
@TELE-HO I see, well worst case scenario I’ll keep an old phone with movescount in it.
-
@Nikos-K
A thread about improving intervals (to allow for complex intervals) was locked a few weeks ago because this does not seem to be a high priority for Suunto. That disappointed me quite a lot.So if it happens, it won’t be in the short term.

@Nikos-K
I expect a solution for ambit… maybe not in SA, but Suunto said once that they are working on a solution for older watches… don’t know in detail what that means but it will be announced soon as far as I understand -
If Suunto is going to support features you are talking about I shall reconsider abandoning my current watch in favor of A3P…

@Nikos-K
Unlikely that keeping Movescount installed will do any good. Once the app is discontinued, the web service behind it will as well I would think. The whole platform will go down and the app won’t work anymore. It’s not keeping everything resident on your phone.
Just going to have to wait patiently like everybody else in the dark on their older devices and see what happens.
-
@Nikos-K I don’t believe that SA will have workout planner for ambit models. Ambit production is over. When MC app is over maybe people with app installed in smartphone can be make sync their exercices. SA will have basic sync for ambit, as announced.
-
Let’s hope for the best, but I’m afraid people are expecting too much from this October announcement. We went through this waiting time and disappointment game few times already. And why the hell are announcements announced?! It looks like they are just buying time until more and more users get fed up and move to newer watches so there will be less backlash when they cripple ambits more or less.

@Prenj
yes, in the end it is business and like in other industries, if the customers will not upgrade, they must be forced to upgrade somehow.my opinion was and still is: suunto can not still sell a product and shut down its background support tomorrow.
I took the step into future with my new s9b (for different reasons…) but I will be happy to have the option to use my a3p, too for several adventures in the future. -
@Prenj I agree, they are just buying time. I think when they finally come with a solution for older watches the older watches will be Spartans and S9…Ambits will be long forgotten.

@petmic
the plan was to shut down MC in summer 2020… nobody will forget ambit by then
-
@TELE-HO Nobody but Suunto
they already may have -
@petmic
maybe they will remember as my ambit was in vantaa for service last week -
After a good research a bought A3P which was manufactured in 2019. From what i have found, support for Ambit series will not be shut down, and Movescount will be put to sleep only after a solid transition to Suunto app has been made.
Also in voting section on this forum, option with most votes is Suunto web (like Movescount web), which in my opinion has to exist if they want to keep operational value of Suunto products, and loyalty of customers. Phone app simply isn’t enough.Vertical Solar Titanium
