Sport modes advanced settings

[krlo_Ox]

Hi!

Following last movescount disconnecting it seems the only way to customize sports mode is suunto app. This is cool, but all the advanced settings for a sports mode cannot be accesed from the app (e.g. gps accuracy, pods search, hr default on/off, etc)

Is there any way around this? Not all this settings can be accessed from the watch, and in any case their default behaviour cannot be changed, only customized as per activity.

Thanks for your feedback

you found the solution

@freeheeler hahaha, not quite, as not all the settings are accessible. Otherwise it would be good enough, kinda.

@freeheeler I find it quiet annoying to always switch off the wrist HR, before I start my running. I always run with HR belt. I did not know that but seems to be in the past it was possible to customize the “sport activity” from this point of view.

at least this is what I have seen from his comment
"e accesed from the app (e.g. gps accuracy, pods search, hr default on/off, etc) "

@skdenes I don’t need to turn wrist measurement off. I wear my HR belt, select my activity and from the HR icon I can see it is using the belt. Belt icon looks like a heart on top of a belt.

No need to turn off wrist HR, the belt takes priority. Second, in that menu the pods can be selected. Finally, there is no need to worry about barometric or altitude mode as the watch will decide that depending on the type of activity and movement. Pods will be remembered in the specific activity chosen.

@brad_olwin sounds good, but last time, I have seen the green light. Nevertheless I will check it again I don’t remember properly for the circumstances.

You see it only before you start the activity.

@skdenes you can see longer battery time before start activity, when hr belt is connected.
