@freeheeler I activate it to extend battery live. I don’t know how effective it is, though.
Be careful with that “power saving mode”.
When I bought the S9 back in 08/2018, I made the BIG mistake to activate it right off the box and then ran a 100-miler. After the race, when I synchronized my watch, the file had not recorded ANY GPS data and when contacting the Suunto support they told me it was because I had activated that power saving mode. They never really told me if it was a feature or a bug but I havent activated it since then -
I tried to search from this thread and didn’t find anything. Sorry if this is a duplicate…
The “second screen” which comes out when you press the middle button while in clock display… I think it is a bit empty. It’s got the date and battery level and lots of black screen. Could we have the sunrise, sunset and altitude info there, because we can’t have it all in a watchface anyway?
Anyone agree?
EDIT: Outdoors watch face has of course altitude, sunrise and sunset, but NOT daily step count, calories and whatnot. It would be nice to have all the extra info in the next screen. Perhaps even customisable fields just like custom activities.

@brunoh 100% with you ! Very good idea
-
@brunoh I agree too. I never check that screen as it always annoys me that the ghost calendar invites never vanish from the notification account (unless I soft reset the watch). It does seem a large empty space though so a very good suggestion.

teraz to tylko automatycznie mam 2 suunto 9 baro i oba wskazują ruzne wartosci po automatycznym wyszukiwaniu. -
@ldxmsg ale ten ekran jest właśnie do powiadomień z telefonu i takie jest jego przeznaczenie .chyba że się mylę.

It also takes you to the alarms page (if you have one set) with only a tap on the alarm. Slightly shorter process than sustained pressure on button or screen to open the context options menu or button presses/scrolling to get to Settings.

I’m not arguing against its current purpose; rather, that it has potential to be more useful than it currently is.
-
@brunoh I am not sure there is sufficient memory for the watch to run all of that at the same time, but I am not sure.
-
@brad_olwin If it’s a memory issue, I wish there was a way to bring up a couple of indicators. Something you could configure yourself.

A function claimed for a long time has been integrated at garmin (14.72): an ULTRARUN sport mode to manage stops or refueling stations without stopping the stopwatch (time continues to pass) but by stopping the GPS (distance).
Choice between the optional functions either “Lap + Rest” or “Rest only”: by choosing this mode, after pressing Lap, the total elapsed time and the time spent in “stop” are displayed on the screen (this allows you to control the duration of the shutdown).
Press Lap again and the normal display resumes with the total time and the GPS reactivated.
Extra! When at Suunto? -
@rob33 I would always forget to hit lap when I left an aid station. I go back through my gps tracks to estimate times spent at aid. I often have a lot more to deal with than worry about what my watch is doing. However, I do not race with crew or pacers so having a crew might make this easier to remember.
-
@rob33 auto lap disabled, hit lap when entering aid station, press again when leaving.
I know distances between aid stations so am really just focused on the lap distance from that point ignoring total distance during the race. Afterwards can always edit if there is drift or something egregious when I’m just standing around.
Always carry a flaggon of whiskey for snakebite; and furthermore, always carry a small snake.

If the watch serves your purpose you didn’t made a mistake of buying it.
But yes we always want more -
@andré-faria the thing who make me affraid is the last post about screen issue. Honestly for me it’s an investissement, it’s not a cheap watch so i’m a bit anxious and i’ve the feeling other brand are more invested with communication. And they let user do what they want with their product. It’s bot normal i can’t share my data with the app i want especially HR. But after i’m happy when i use it. So it’s not to bad
-
@stromdiddily the idea is to stop the “false” distances when you are stopped. . to gain in comfort and precision

Extra! When at Suunto?That sounds cool but what’s wrong with just creating a lap when at the aid stations ? That’s what I do before entering the AS and when leaving. It’s simple and i don’t need to wait for a feature that might never be implemented

Questions or bugs ? -
Can we expect a Tactical watchface look ?
And the ability to “turn off” the screen when we want to preserve it. And keep batterie for long hike -
@g287-sf i have recently tried backlight toggle mode while on the hike. It worked one time out of three to be generous. I would love to see another option to keep the scree lit up.
