      @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos I have both Suunto 9 Baro and Garmin fenix 5 Plus on my table right now and I have to return one of them. Garmin has more features but Suunto is way nicer. It would be a pity to return the latter because it’s not useful enough (for my needs, of course).

        Yup, I understand the use case. Sadly that doesn’t seem to work currently. Of course the way you describe the use case is how the SApp+watch combo should work…

          @djibarian why don’t you use Movescount only for the moment, switch to SA as late as possible when more features are there?

            I use both app since years, and others as well.
            It works, it is sure.
            But not Moveslink, not suuntolink : use Movescount App (iOS or Android).

              @Mff73 But as I wrote it seems that for Suunto 9 doesn’t.

              @jean-william-cousin That’s an option, but I couldn’t manage to link the watch. Everywhere in the docs says that Suunto 9 hast to use SuuntoApp. It doesn’t seem to be recognised with the iOS app or Moveslink. The watch connects via Bluetooth but doesn’t sync afterwards.

                Is not Moveslink is Suuntolink. And as @Mff73 says you can use both, in fact I do, but you do everything in the web and then you use Movescount mobile to sync, at least in Android. Maybr @Brad_Olwin can help with iOS, but I think is pretty similar.

                Only S3 and S5 are SA exclusive, not S9.

                  @cosmecosta I don’t understand you. You say you use both but then say that use the web and then Movescount mobile to sync. Where is the SuuntoApp or Suuntolink in that process?

                    May i summarize ?
                    You need to export POI out of watch S9, assuming you have created them during an activity.
                    Not possible yet with SuuntoApp, but it arrives (when, we don’t know). --> Now we are talking about a workaround to let you do it until it arrives.

                    If you use SA (for customize sports modes or sync route) your Suuntolink doesn’t work anymore.
                    But you can install Movescount app on your phone, connect to your Movescount account, pair your watch, and this MC app with play the role of Suuntolink --> it will sync your watch to Movescount web acount, including your POIs.

                      You can use both the Suunto App and MC app but only one can be running at one time. Make sure to force quit in iOS the app that you are not using. For quit SA. Download MC app from the App Store. Log in with with your MC credentials and the app will recognize the watch and sync, providing your POIs.
                      There is one issue when using both apps, the custom sport modes set up in SA will be overwritten by the MC sync. This is only a short term solution as I think that POIs will be coming to SA soon. I would use this only if you absolutely need it.

                        After several months, still not able to export the POIs. None of the workarounds really work. This is surreal.

                            I’m saying that couldn’t even connect to MC. When tried, MC says there are no watches. I connect Suuntolink and nothing happens. Then I found a support document that says that activities synced to SuuntoApp cannot be synced to MC. If I connect the watch via USB to the computer and open SuuntoLink, nothing happens. So…?

                              Yes, you can’t use suuntolink.
                              You should had been able to use MC APP (NOT suuntolink) to do it, as @Brad_Olwin suggested (he owns an S9 and he used both APP in parallel since a while)
                              Unfortunately now MC APP is no more available for download due to service transition, sonic you don’t have it, you just have to wait.

                                      Yes I tried but I found lost of problems before, like not being able to use one app if using the other. Maybe you’re looking this from a different point of view because you are an old user. But I started using the Suunto watch right away with the Suunto app, so for new users the path to going back is way more difficult, if possible.

                                          @djibarian yes it is. It’s a beta, so there may be bugs and its purpose is to find bugs before hitting the public, but you can just join the beta in Google Play or the iOS equivalent.

                                            Probably you can remember that but let me ask you one more time, when we can expect export new POI’s to the SUUNTO APP?
