MOVESCOUNT...

[Thibaut Trancart]

I have been using Suunto AMBIT & MOVESCOUNT since 2012 and recently bought a Suunto 9 few weeks ago.

To be honest I am quite disapointed by Suunto 9 & Suunto Apps, I even think that the standard we were having on the previous systems have been somehow degraded for the following reasons:

• Why can’t we use Suunto App from an Internet Browser - if I am missing something here please let me know?
• How can I download all the and itineraries I was having from Movescount to Suunto App?
• How can I download the various watch mode from Movescount to Suunto App?

Thanks for your lights and comments

-it doesn’t exist a web version yet
-export from movescount and then import in suunto app
-you just can copy it manually

I know it is sad but we hope suunto is working on it

Because there is no web site accompanied with the SuuntoApp.

• How can I download all the and itineraries I was having from Movescount to Suunto App?

You have to connect Movescount to the SuuntoApp, go in the SuuntoApp into your profile and choose connected service.

• How can I download the various watch mode from Movescount to Suunto App?

You can’t.

@jthomi Thanks very much for your feedback
Do you know if there is any possibility to download my move from Suunto App to Movescount?
Thanks

yes, you can transfer moves with syncmytracks on android. from sporttracker to movescount. and yes, all your moves are stored in sporttracker also

[freeheeler]

@Thibaut-Trancart
but instead of trying to stick to something that will be obsolete and disabled sooner or later you can catch the chance of syncing your activities (once you have completed sync from MC to SA) to quantified-self.io … it is not like MC web and you can not setup your S9 from there, you have to deal with SA…
but QS is a brilliant tool to check your activities on a big screen try and enjoy

[jthomi]

@Thibaut-Trancart There is also a website where this Movescount export to SuuntoApp is explained.

https://www.suunto.com/en-gb/Support/faq-articles/movescount/how-do-i-transfer-my-move-history-from-suunto-movescount-to-suunto-app/

[Cuba1hr]

The problem is, though QS is trying and getting better, no way to change and sync settings over the PC to Suunto 5/9.
Creating screens and routes is much easier on PC…and comparisons of activities. For routes (& waypoints) you can use other web services (i.e. Komoot) and then upload it and import on Suunto app.

Can not enter new route in Movescount. Tried on chrome and Edge. Anyone else have this problem? Problem is that I can not enter starting point.

same here, looks like a bug. let’s wait and see.

@Mff73 @zvonejan I have seen it reported on this same forum twice this weekend. Now, givent that few weeks ago we had the exact same issue with SA, maybe at Mapbox they update their systems during weekends. I don’t know, but sounds reasonable.

Maybe. Or Mapbox actually closed the API Movescount is relaying on. Movescount route creation indeed while making Mapbox requests, but the actual response is quite interesting. Instead of (elevation?) data, Mapbox is responding with the following:
The Surface service has reached its end of life and is no longer available

Sorry for off-topic, but seems that another Finnish company has somehow chosen ideal time to introduce a new piece, only time will tell how many Ambiters and Movescount devotees they’ll manage to lure over.

[zvonejan]

Is there any official statement what is going on? No mail of maintainence or something similar…

[Prenj]

@zvonejan
Yes, some official statement regarding significantly reduced functionality of web platform and thus watches relying on it would be expected from every other company in the world. Except suunto.

I’ll never understand this. It’s not just about too small development team and them being slow at delivering features or fixing bugs. It’s lack of communication with the users. That bothers me the most. It shouldn’t be so hard to add a message with something like this:
“There is currently a problem with mapping service in Movescount. Our development team is currently working hard to fix it. We will keep you informed about it. We apologize.”
instead of pushing the ad for suunto 7.

[A Former User]

@Prenj oh yeah! Movescount App is getting a lot of ads nowadays, interestingly I never got a digital service transition notice however.

[zvonejan]

What… will you give as a formal explanation or behave like ordinary amateurs and dip your head in the sand?
…cmon Dimitri. You should probably know what is happening. Is this the way of ending web app…pus tome bug in app and hide?

[Prenj]

@andrasveres
Yes, lots of ads. I don’t get it. Do they really think I would buy another Suunto watch when they don’t even bother to acknowledge and inform us on really significant reduction in core functionality? We are all witnesses how slow are things moving in Suunto world. I have zero confidence in them in software development department for the future, let alone keeping things up and running. After people in Suunto started losing jobs even less. So, thank you, but no thank you. I’m not buying another product while you are unable to maintain the one you already sold me as “connected” device. Specially not unfinished products where you are supposed to wait years (not months) to get what you paid for. Sorry, but that’s the way it is.

[zvonejan]

Movescount and route creation works again. Thanks god

@zvonejan
But altitude profile is gone? Is it just me?
