S9 Baro Wishlist

@Jonathan-Schwarz
I’ve switched off 24/7 HR, sleep tracking and notification…and no backlight.
SA starts syncing automatically when you get your watch closer to the phone… so carrying your phone always in the pocket helps a bit
With this setup I get around 0.3%/h without activity, of course.

It seems that Suunto might release an SA version eventually that only syncs to your watch when you open SA and not in the background

I’m missing the option to lock the watch in regular daily use (not activity)

freeheeler

@Oktan
I would like to have this, too! strongly!
… but never saw any comment or rumors that this is planned…
in general I see more useful improvements on the watch FW side than on the SA side

To be honest. I think we will only see GPS firmware updates (if any) and maybe a bugfix, but unfortunately no new features.

I hope someone proves me wrong.

@surfboomerang
maybe they consider all our suggestions for a potential S9 plus or S11
… Suunto will only earn little money if they implement our wishlist since I see in my little world that the ratio between existing customers vs potential customers (for S9) will be well above 1

There will be SuuntoPlus features. That could be significant. Also POI and waypoints. Much more than GPS improvements. I consider those new features.

@Brad_Olwin
POI and waypoints are THE requested features… on the other hand I think Suunto Plus did not land yet.
I would really like to see more customization on button and touch behaviour and screens in the menu, like quick menu and main menu etc

tomviv

@Brad_Olwin I for one am very much looking forward to these long awaited improvements.

surfboomerang

@Brad_Olwin
POI and waypoints are already available in the current firmware and worked with the older Movescount app but not with the Suunto APP. So I consider this a restore of an old feature instead of a new one.

About the other features… I hope Suunto can surprise me.

Brad_Olwin

@surfboomerang Fair enough!

@pilleus adjustable strength of the vibration would be very cool!

Hi,
Does someone knows if the loved “Track Back from the logbook” option is on its way to Suunto 9?
Example to this option:

Thanks.

Maryn

You can do this via app.
Go into activity, press 3 dots upper right and choose Save Route. Then you can pass it to the watch via route manager in app.

Oktan

@Maryn Is Bluetooth enough or I need also cellular data? because when i’m in foreign country I usually don’t have this.

Brad_Olwin

@Oktan There is a find back option on the Suunto 9 or you can retrace the breadcrumb. I doubt that it will change.

Brad_Olwin

@Oktan This is supposed to work without cellular but on iPhones needs to be fixed.

retrace the breadcrumb

I can use it unless I got to a point where I want to sleep the night, end the activity, and at the morning want to go back the same way

If Suunto bring drill mode for pool swim, it will be my watch.

@renton82 hahahahahah. It wasn’t on the Spartan and we’re working through year 3 of this watch. It’s not going to happen. But I’m with you, it’s a necessary feature for a watch to be a great swim watch.
