      @isazi There may well be fewer folk who don’t (usually) want HR but the consequences of unwanted recording can be more severe. If you miss turning on HR for an activity you will lose that stat but return with the rest. If you have it unwanted and unaware you may return with a dead battery and not much in the way of useful stats. Curtailed navigation, too.

      Both preferences could be served by a Default HR toggle in Personal settings.

        @isazi well, why not? If you want a different target or S+, you would go to settings anyways. And for that seldom case of you keeping the target, you could save yourself time bc watch remembers it. Would maybe be nice if the watch could remember settings adaptively, like this low battery reminder. Like if you use a special target or S+ at a particular time of the week, you would get the settings changed automatically for that activity.

          @дима-мельниченко IMHO it is because of the reason I explained, that is Suunto has to optimize for the average case, not for specific cases. So avoiding anything that could bother the user and change his/her data. Already lots of people complained that they had laps when they didn’t want them, because they did not realize that many S+ features are actually generating laps automatically 🙂

          So, for a company, it is better safe than sorry.

              @дима-мельниченко anyway setting default for customized sports mode in the app would probably be a good idea, given that the new modes are a complete creation of the user and there is no way Suunto can know better 🙂

                I think so, too.

                  The Suunto s9 doesn’t record RR intervals of HR, does it?

                  Is a feature I would like to have, to run in goldencheetah a python graphic which tells you where did you run respect the 0,75 DFA 1.

                      @freeheeler you can get RR from IBI. Check runalyze and its data regarding HRV produced with Suunto watches.

                        @fenr1r I usually want HR. I just don’t usually want WRIST HR. I would absolutely love love love if the S9 watch remembered last saved options for each activity. EVERY time I start an run or bike activity I have to go in, disable wrist HR, connect to my HR belt and then start the activity. It would be a huge time saver / increase ease of use.
                        Same for Suunto+. I think it would make more sense for most users to just remember the last used option.
                        For the HR issue - I would argue having bad HR data from the wrist HR is a worse option than having no HR data.

                          @jonathan-schwarz the external hr sensor has always higher priority than the internal one, so you don’t need to disable anything, if the external sensor is on and paired the S9 will use that, unless you disabled it in the sport.

                            You do not need to disable the OHR. If your chest strap or external OHR is connected when you start the activity, the watch will get the HR from the external HR device. The watch uses the OHR when it doesn’t detect a bluetooth HR device. You can see this, when you choose the activity, and you are waiting for GPS and HR you will see that the heart symbol have like a strap not a plain heart, besides there are no lights in the watch OHR.

                            What the watch can’t do is switch between externa or integrated HR during and activity.

                              @cosmecosta Oooh!! OMG I can’t believe this haha. Thank you so much. I didn’t know there was a difference in the HR icon between WHR and OHR.
                              Suunto should have a glossary of all the icons in the app/watch haha.

                                  Does someone know why? Occasionally it happened to me that during a race the strap sensor failed (bad battery). I would be nice if the OHR can function as backup during the activity.

                                    @surfboomerang because it’s difficult and could lead to lots of problems. It would also use more battery.

                                      What if connection is lost only temporary with the strap sensor? It’s a tough decision to make for a watch when to switch. 🙂

                                        @andrasveres maybe it can display a warning message, like for lost gps connection. And then to give an option to switch to whr.

                                          Something like this.
                                          Same for GNSS settings. I you see that GPS is struggling during and activity it would be wonderful to change GNSS mode without quitting the activity first.

                                            @дима-мельниченко That’s great, but that would need more options to choice from just to be a whole solution:

                                            • switch to WHR and don’t look further for chest strap
                                            • switch to WHR, but continue look for chest strap
                                            • don’t switch and don’t look further
                                            • don’t switch, but continue look for chest strap

                                            To name a few I can think of right now.

                                            Not to mention GNSS mode switch written by @surfboomerang would be more complex and cumbersome to implement in my opinion.
