      Am I the only who think that the duration of waypoint alerts in screen is not enough? Since you feel the vibration and beep until the alert disappears I think you have 3 seconds or less. For me it is impossible to read

        System Version H MR2?
        My understanding from what I have read is that this is supposed to be the new wear os update that google announced for fall release - can anyone confirm that?

        If that is the case, what occurred to the weather update that was supposed to be in the update?
        Battery life improvement - to soon to tell in regards to general use and if Suunto app extends battery life (abnormal use at the moment as I test and check features).
        Reduction in time to launch apps - difficult to tell as they normally launch so quickly anyhow, however based on the Suunto app which occasionally used to show a red swirl on black background - which now brings up app straight away; and the play store app which used to show 1/2 green swirls on black background and now doesn’t - yes I would say this is quicker - but really barely noticeable as was originally very quick.

        Anyone else noticed anything along these lines - and do we really have the fall update; if so where is our improved weather app.

            @Metalmi - I know but based on what I am seeing compared to what we expected based on Google’s statements - I am wondering if we really do have it or not. Or if it is structure for the next release; and the additional bits like weather etc will be somehow dropped later.

              Don’t know about that. This might be just a performance improvement, hopefully, the rest won’t be dropped.

                The weather update will most likely come through Play Store

                  @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos was just looking for this in the apps information in the watch. found nothing about which app can this be?
                  @Jamie-BG Gerald posted something about it in his blog (and I asked the same question as you in his FB post).

                    @Egika from what I understand the weather screen we all show google announced it was leaked and then google announced it 😕

                    Weather comes via the Google app afaik as well as assistant afaik

                      @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos , yes I have looked into it and when the wear os 2.2 was updated to H MR1 google split the base structure (bones) from the app side (the flesh as you could consider). The give the base structure to the manufacturers who then build on top of it - this is what mainly drives peformance, battery life etc. The rest is now all app based and comes through the play store as part of the Google app. It is easy to the see the benefits of going this way and certainly makes sense, so I suspect we will see the updated weather app come through the play store as and when made available by Google.

                          @Dariusz-Rybak yes! Due to the always on power saving display and with the new GPS FusedTrack setting, now I can finally record a full day of hiking 👍
