      @Alfonse it has a proximity sensor that is a bit clever to know if on skin or not.

      For example on my tattoos it’s off, when it’s on the dark part, same with a jacket but not when on the skin .

          @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Is it just tattoo pigments now or does the watch have the old OHR limited cleverness regarding naturally darker skin?

            @Fenr1r I think it’s just because it’s very dark , or too much color.

            The moment it touches that, LEDs go off. It doesn’t even try.

            I can move it Abit and find ohr but it’s very very hard

              Today a 1,5 hour cycling activity recorded with Ghostracer (standalone gps, barometer and OHR activated, no AOD, but turn wrist to activate display) instead of S7 app.

              Battery usage: 15 %

              A good alternative to S7 app, because other BLE devices can be used (e.g. Polar H10) and a gpx file can be loaded to follow the track.

              The gps quality/track is as fine as in the S7 app, much more better than in Ghostracer running on Skagen Falster 3. 🙂

                @pilleus Does the GhostRacer app only run on your android phone? I just searched for it in the google play store on my S7 and did not find it. Thanks!

                    @patterbt It’s an android app for smartphone and smartwatch. You can use it on the S7 as standalone app with offline maps and gpx files to navigate. Ghostracer on the S7 uses barometer (you can calibrate it to the actual altitude), heart rate (OHR), running cadence and the gps. The smartphone app is used to transfer maps, custom sport modes for cycling and running and gpx files. A great app. 👍

                      @pilleus Thanks for the information! Unfortunately, I’m a bit screwed as I am (currently) an iphone user. The app sounds excellent, if I end up switching to Android, I will get it for sure!

                              @pilleus Ghostracer will not run on an S7 without an Android phone. I downloaded it and it will not work if one is iOS based.

                                    I really like the S7. Good sports watch even though some gaps has to be solved; fit integration, sensors. I like having wear with remote camera etc, always at hand.

                                      I know that it is not possible to have two watches at the same time inside SA but is it possible to pair lets say S9 to SA when you go for a run and later when you finish just unpair it and pair S7 again?
                                      This would be some kind of workaround until support for external sensors for S7 comes

                                        @vlado Yes. That’s an official workaround in fact. Have both watches paired. Forget one in SA, add another, sync, then forget and add the previous one back.

                                        This only needs to be done in SA app. All phone level Bluetooth pairing stays unchanged.

                                          This was my next question, on the watch level i don’t need to do anything and beside S7 the other watch can be S9 or Ambit3, i guess it does not matter.
                                          Also, i will probably start on working on my own app for stryd because i don’t think that the official one will come so soon 😞

                                            👍 Post a GitHub repo when you do. I think quite a few people here me including would be happy to help out
