      Actually if you are on iOS we can pm.

      Very mysterious. Could be about technical barrier or a pleasant surprise. 🤔

            A pleasant surprise, along with a “technical” barrier 😄

              this survey should not be there. MC is closing in a few weeks.

              Now we have dates

                @André-Faria Thanks for that.

                I wonder what “Routes still available” means. And what, if any, future for POIs.

                Was there detail “below”?

                    @Prenj Yes, you’re right, I must have been looking at an imported route. There is no elevation data for a route created in Movescount.

                    I’ve always been impressed by the accuracy with which my Traverse tracks Movescount routes on the ground. But if they’re not maintaining it then maybe it’s time to move onto an alternative route creator.

                      what in “routes still available” is so difficult to understand?

                        @Egika It can mean:

                        1. A map on which to create & view routes
                        2. An account library of prior MC-created/imported/move-conversion routes
                        3. A simple function to transfer imported routes to the watch

                        No. 3 seems the minimum to fit the statement

                        Not necessarily No.2. And No.1 has been hobbled for some time.

                          Hello,

                          Does anybody know if Suunto custom apps data is now synced into Suunto app for Ambit/Traverse watches ?

                          Thanks.

                            I would hazard a guess and say no, why: I gave my A3PS to a good friend and he uses it as I set it up (with Ambit apps) and none of the values recorded are available in SA.

                              I knew it wasn’t supported few month ago but I 've been hoping SA would be improved to support it since MC shutdown is now scheduled on February 9 2021. I’m sad to lose those data

                                I am not sure if this will be left out in SA integration but I doubt it. Ambit apps where MC and Ambit specific. I think (?!) it’s still possible to set them up in “what’s left of MC” in a few days. Since it’s not possible to set them up with SA it might me a feature that is going to be obsolete some time in the future

                                  I also hope it would still be possible to set up the apps in MC but I’m interested in the data of those apps. It’s currently only supported through moveslink2 <-> mouvescount.com.
                                  SuuntoLink doesn’t transfer suunto apps logs and nothing seems to be planed to support it.

                                    I assume this is the way Suunto wants users to upgrade.
                                    I know the watches aren’t inexpensive by far! I did the step while I was bored sitting at home recovering from getting a bunch of screws in my elbow… I accounted it as entertainment expens back then and I do not regret it.
                                    While I enjoy the newer Suunto watches, I absolutely understand everyone who would like to stick to their older models. I also think it is a question of how green a company wants to be… it is definitely also a waste of resources if you replace a 2-3 year old watch that would actually work easily another 2-3 years.
                                    Just to mention, my wife upgraded to S7 recently as she wanted a swimming mode and a reliable OHR. I did the S9B upgrad 1.5 years ago. We both gave our Ambits to good friends/relatives for a second life and we would much appreciate if their Suunto experience is that great, that they might buy Suunto again one day, rather than buying any other brand because of disappointments now… ✊

                                      Sure, I also would appreciate a S9B, but as my watch is still fully functional (no hardware or software issue) and it perfectly fits my needs, I don’t see why I should upgrade.
                                      Thanks again for your answers 🙂

                                        As far as I am aware, after contacting suunto support: apps data will not be synced to suunto app.
                                        At least that is the current info/status.

                                        POIs
                                        Routes
                                        Training plans
                                        Apps
                                        Will continue on the movescount website.

                                        No workout creator available (was present on movescount iOS/android app)

                                        Although a lot has been written, I guess in the end the transition is much better than it was in the beginning: https://www.dcrainmaker.com/2019/01/suunto-announces-decommission-plans-for-movescount-platform-impacting-some-watches.html

                                        For me it is ok, I will be enjoying my watch without worries.

                                          I’ve had an app that simply calculated the ascent in m/min into m/h and I setup MC to show me the m/h value instead of the m/min value… it is a minor thing, I know. But it was so much better to read than the default m/min value… at least in the groups I discuss and the tour information I read, the unit is always m/h… in SA it is m/min again and not adjustable 👎
                                          in QS @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos has set it up so you can select in the graph what unit you would like to see 👍 …by the way, Dimitrios, did you check if it is possible to show in the overview the ascent rate for ascents only? that was another ambit app I used to use and it was great to see for specific (where applicable of course) climbs, how fast you were “climbs only”.

                                            Did you send message to suunto support about the unit stuff?

                                            We all have minor stuff that would like to see not going, or being implemented.
                                            For me, considering the initial decision from Suunto, I am fine with the decisions made, at least I didn’t end with a paper weight.
                                            Ok some features were removed, but thats life. Nothing is eternal.
                                            At this point I think it is worthless to ask more features/implementations regarding the ambit/traverse line.
                                            And all that can come is for sure a bonus.
                                            But it is valuable that we turn our needs into feature requests for future app versions/watches or find a solution.
