      @Jamie-BG I agree, a waypoint notification would wake up the main processor. Similar to when the Suunto 7 displays autolap info, then the watch uses the main processor. Displaying just the breadcrumb trail and the route will hopefully just require the coprocessor and not use anymore battery than the always-on sport display.

        I would really like to see date in the basic black watch-face which appears with power saver tilt ON, or some kind of possibility to choose what is displayed in those two small circles (battery should be just fine in the upper part of display maybe ?) 😁

          @Zab_55 loads of watch faces allow this. Go in and adjust features of watch face.

          Long press watch face, then press blue cog (if no blue cog available watch face can’t be adjusted). Settings will come up. Add/adjust complications to choose how many/what comes up. Adjust ambient screen (if available) - minimal normally means no complications, with full having dimmed complications in ambient mode.

            Suunto tracking app on the watch weight training needs a major uplift as all it does is time and HR. Come on suunto, how about making something like what Google fit provides: automatic exercise detection picking up curls, sit ups, press Up etc with ability to change activity (if it gets it wrong), auto counting of reps and sets (with option to adjust rep count), ability to add weight lifting for each set, an adjustable rest timer with option to skip, ability to also manually enter a session, duration and HR monitoring in background with calorie used, epoc, PTE and recovery.

              @Jamie-BG oh Gosh, how blind I am. I was wondering if I should write it here, because it must be somewhere in settings but I didn’t see it 😁 Thank you !

                  @Fly-Riviera Adding: Heart Rate visual at Default Sphere. (damm, that does even an Amazfit Bip Lite, less than 50$!!!)

                    Sorry - you have really lost me? What does heart rate visual at default sphere mean - care to explain?

                    I know that the S7 does active HR zones on main tracking screen. You can also use the HR tile to take a HR reading at any time / and or go into google fit to get a reading at any time. You can also set Google fit to take 24/7HR reading which can then be viewed in tile or google fit.

                      @Jamie-BG please, let me check! It’s our new sportwatch! šŸ™‚ Is there a livetrack / emergency feature at Suunto 7/app?

                        I would like to see the watch being able to connect to turbo trainers. Or an app to connect to them.

                          I would like to see the ability to chose and add apps to the watch through the Google play store on the phone rather than on the watch. This will save battery life on the watch.

                            @meyton89 this would be a step back to Android Wear 1.0 and has nothing to do with Suunto.

                            Meanwhile WearOS apps cannot be installed on the phone. The only way is to install these apps via the PlayStore on the watch.

                            And usually this will happen at home with a wireless connection and the possibility to use the charger.

                              @Fly-Riviera no and the ones on the play store are very manual too

                                  @Xiaiomi-Killmister hi. I am also greek here.

                                  The language is part of Google operating system. It’s not a suunto only feature. Since the wearos is not supporting greek this is logical.

                                  While we all would like to use our mother language, still this is not a reason to have this attitude , especially when your written skills in english are so good.

                                  There will be updates for your watch nevertheless, just not the language yet.

                                      The above I took it as sarcastic intention to undermine the effort to bring the Greek language to suunto watches that I also have worked on.

                                      I might have been wrong. My excuses.

                                      Good luck with your next watch and have a great weekend.

                                          It was my first smartwatch…it was new (i bought it almost a month after it came out) it was cheap and looked nice…i had to choose between Suunto and Garmin…as a new watch i thought it will have all the ā€œgoodiesā€ that i had in my simply Honor band…i didn’t have any idea that some things was missing,i new about the language but as a new watch i thought that one day Suunto would support it…now that i know that its a"Google thing" with the little support of Wear Os,no…i have nothing to wait .so my answer to you is that i didn’t ā€œknow all this alreadyā€
                                          Great weekend to you Dimitrios Kanellopoulos.

                                            @Xiaiomi-Killmister well I’m sorry then. I’m sure you’ll avoid doing the mistake of buying the wrong device for you again.
