Battery LIfe

@Federico-Ormesani I don’t see how someone should tell you that running apps consumes battery. Sounds pretty obvious to me.

@isazi
Well then it is stated that it is possible to have certain “severl options via google play” features if then these severl options once installed consume battery. In fact, you uninstall them as I did. Does this seem normal and correct? My question is as elementary as your statement -
maybe you haven’t studied it well, the manual says that the actual duration varies according to the functions, the apps you use and the way you use them (for example on page 148 of the Italian manual)
It also seems obvious to me that this is the case: how should Suunto or Google be responsible for the abnormal consumption of applications developed by third parties? -
@Federico-Ormesani everything is possible, but you have to pay the cost of it. And I believe you are having issues with your S7, but as you can see many people are not, and when they tell you that you just reply “BUT LOOK AT ME I HAVE PROBLEMS”. If you don’t let other people help you, then call support.

@Saketo-Nemo
I repeat don’t write “several option via googe play” on internet page becuse is marketing, but you must say that the watch is as it leaves the factory. point -
@isazi
Already called the cutomere care. He does not answer the email and on the phone they are evasive. It is not that I do not want to be helped by you, but I would like to open your eyes to when declaring suunto on the internet page is only marketing and in my opinion they are incorrect. and that’s that -
If you buy a car the manufacturer has declared what the typical fuel consumption will be. But if you drive a lot in the mountains or in the snow, maybe you get a roof rack, maybe a roof box and you start hauling a trailer, then the consumption will of course increase. So if this is something everybody accepts, then why is it so hard to accept that the same will affect a watch?
-
So … maybe … we should rename the topic fron “Battery life” to “the internet page is only marketing and in my opinion they are incorrect” as it is the real purpose of this thread, isn’t it ?

@aeroild
it’s different, I’m talking about additional features and information that watch can have more because it doesn’t exist from the factory “several options via google play”.
Your example does not seem right to me -

Isn’t that obvious that using extra 3rd party features can have an impact on battery life?! (Not necessarily it will, but it sure can ).

@sartoric
If this is your way of operating as a “moderator” then I don’t waste any more time. You have achieved the result. good day -
I don’t get where are we going with the marketing of the web. Is true an accurate.
Lets stay with the battery life please, so this topic could be useful in the future.

@Federico-Ormesani
Oh c’mon … really ?! Aren’t grinning faces enough to mark the post as a joke ?
We are talking about battery consumption not about a matter of life or death … please, take it easy.Just to clarify.
Yes, I’m a moderator, not a Suunto employee, a Suunto user, not a Suunto’s fanatic -
i can avoid reading this post, because i try i read all here
but i am little fed up with this kind of comments. ( @Federico-Ormesani )
@aeroild , i love the car analogy
@Federico-Ormesani , In the marketing link of your OP, there is :
You won’t have 48h anytime with any kind of usage. Some are archieving, not others, maybe your watch is deffective, maybe your usage is too heavy, maybe something is stuck somewhere in your watch (wear OS is not made by Suunto, SuuntoApp only), maybe…
-
@Federico-Ormesani, here we are just trying to help. We can have different opinions, right or wrong, not take it badly.
Allow me a little addition on the barometer. As you will have seen from my print screen, there are applications that consume much less, simply choose others. As you know, among other things, it is a third-party app it is only useful in watch mode, during the activity it is Suunto wear that provides you with the data, it does not seem to me to be even essential, or not so much to judge if a watch is good or not.
The fact that Suunto 7 is the reference of autonomy among the smart watches wear os, I think is a fact, then it is up to each of us to use it and set it according to the needs of autonomy. If, on balance, autonomy no longer meets your needs, return the product.
In addition, I invite you without any controversy to reflect on the position you are holding, opposite to anyone else in this 3d. -

Let me tell you a story. Once upon a time, when the grass was greener, skies higher, and the watch complications new and fresh, there were two weather related ones in a small cozy shack of Google App Store. The first complication was from AccuWeather and the second from the Weather Channel. Since I was a dedicated user of the latter, I naturally chose theirs. Even though all they provided was this complication only, not even a tiny stinky app to back it up. After a few hours of thoroughly enjoying up-to-date temps and weather conditions right on my watch screen no less, I discovered to my horror the big fat LG watch was almost out of battery.
Sounds familiar?
Well, I checked the battery usage and there was the Weather Channel complication, prominently sitting at the top of the list. Guzzling volts like there’s no manana. Bad complication, bad! To the trash it went, kicking and screaming, promptly replaced with AccuWeather for the time being.
I haven’t had this issue ever again. End of story.
Just because several options are available via Google Play, doesn’t mean all of them are equally good or advisable. Sometimes bugs happen even to an otherwise decent app. Sometimes your particular settings result in a much higher drain than usual. It’s up to you as a user to analyze the trade-offs and make a decision.

Something very strange is going on with my S7 battery consumption.
It has had a massive battery drain 3 nights in a row.
First night the battery drain was 40%Second night it was 45%
And last night the battery drain was a whopping 69% (it died at 5 am so I put it on charger)
Took the watch from charger at 8.50 am and 1 hour after the battery is already down 7% and estimated battery life is 11 hours
Any advices on this issue?
besides the ‘native’ apps, I’m using
-Sleep as Android
-Wear Messages (appfour)
-Wear Photos
-Wear Calendar
-Wear Mail
-GhostracerI’ve booted both my S7 and my phone.

@JANTIKAINEN can you try to activate “airplane mode” when you go to bed, and see if that changes something?
-
@isazi Yes I will test but doesn’t it prevent sending HR information to Sleep as Android?
-
@JANTIKAINEN I don’t know either, I’ve got my S7 just two days ago and I’m still at the stage where heart rate data is not recorded at all
