        but S9B syncs automatically or when you press sync now.
        Why would you want a sync button on the watch?

          Multiple alarms (weekday vs single, etc)
          Tones profiles by activity, alarm, notifications
          Configurable watch mode data screens (don’t use sleep, let me remove it completely)
          Gesture based backlight functionality (stillllllll)
          More watch faces

          Edit: so basically the same list as I posted originally šŸ˜‚

            @TELE-HO Not so much a button for syncing: a button (rather than menu steps) for BT power. I think @Durri might have meant latching the BT toggle to a button: useful if the user’s choice is to leave BT off except for a fast On-Sync-Off. I could be wrong.

              could be done by DND?

                @TELE-HO Quite possibly. Never used DND: is turning off BT all it does? Is it a single button press thing or fewer menu steps than toggling Connectivity?

                  I haven’t used DND as I don’t have notifications switched on… I think it’s just a muting of notifications but for me it could also cut the BT connection.
                  On the other hand I don’t see the disadvantage of having BT always ready to connect. It’s not permanent and a low consumption type of BT connection

                    @TELE-HO Good points. BT is, however, on the list of things to turn off (or minimise, where appropriate) if you want to maximise battery life. In many exchanges with Suunto support on how to get my SSU to approach its advertised specs, it was always near the top of their checklist. (They were very insistent - no matter how many times I told them I’d done it.)

                      @silentvoyager said in S9 Baro Wishlist:

                      My wishlist would include:

                      • A dedicated waypoint navigation screen like in Ambit3 with waypoint name, bearing, distance on route, ETE, etc

                      • Dedicated button for backlight (e.g. ability to customize the lower button that I almost never use for laps)

                      • Navigation zoom available in locked mode

                      • Zoom (changing scale) for custom graphs while in exercise

                      • Ability to activate/deactivate the breadcrumbs screen - don’t want to have to scroll through it during 90% of my activities.

                      • Adjustable watch face timeout in non-activity mode (e.g. I want to be able to observe altitude or HR outside of exercise without the watch switching back to watchface after one minute).

                      • Easily accessible recovery time graph on watch (like in Ambit3, not buried too deep in the menu).

                      • Vo2max estimate on watch.

                      • Allow more than 3 screens in custom sport mode.

                      Everything that I mentioned before still applies, except Vo2Max.

                      I would also very like something like Garmin’s ClimbPro.

                          @TELE-HO yes, i mean quick turn on Bluetooth instead of stepping through the menu.

                            there are now 2 active firmware wishlists for S9B… I did not expect this one to be active, that’s why I’ve created a new list that kind of there to list what’s not there yet… like a summary… as it says

                                @Durri I vote also for SSSWHR Baro as watch faces are the same. Some kind of a light theme for watch face would be nice. It will draw more battery, but I see better without glasses on positive watch face as contrast is better for me.White color sends more light to eyes so pupils contract and then you see better šŸ™‚

                                  @Bulkan Second that. It was key in my Ambit 3 days. And super helpful in new cities. Please Suunto.

                                    Yes, because that literally is a screenshot of Garmin ClimbPro. But I’d like to have something similar on Suunto 9.

                                    However I think the main issue is that there is no good way to switch between alternative displays without having to scroll through all of them. On Ambit there is View button for that, but on Suunto 9 there are no available buttons - out only 3 buttons two buttons are always reserved for rarely needed actions.

                                        @TELE-HO Because Garmin is a smartwatch. And Suunto 9 is less ā€œsmart watchā€ than Ambit. It is trying its best to be a fitness tracker though.

                                          I remember that I looked into the programming of garmin apps and noticed that it was waaaay to difficult for me… but something like this could be added for S-line watches in my opinion…
