2021 April System Update

@aleksander-h
I load it once a week as part of my diet tracking into myfitnesspal (only phone at moment), which feeds it into google fit (google fit on watch is always updated for it).
Unfortunately suunto app doesn’t seem to take that feed - you have to manually adjust on the watch - which is a bit of pity, really should just take the feed. Hence part of my reason why I would like to see this added to the suunto app so it can do it automatically.

Now we have POI

No POIs in 7, there is routes/waypoints

@bulkan said in 2021 April System Update:

an API for the weight and sync/track with services.

I think there will be an API for syncing weight to SA one day, but I can’t promise anything on behalf of the company

BTW if this is already public, one more feature in new update will be up to 10 tiles which is great imho

@bulkan I definitely agree about missing intervals, manual calibration of altitude and connecting sensors like stryd. And to that list I would add the ability to set personal HR zones. With these features in place the Suunto 7 would be near perfect.

With these features the Suunto 7 would be a sports watch. These features would let me use the S7 for biking (mounted on the handle bar) and for kayaking (mounted on the deck). But I think another year will pass until these basic features will be integrated.

@pilleus for me the only thing missing anymore after the next update will be the sensor support with Suunto app. I really hope that Suunto will implement it even at the expense of battery life. But at least if I can have that option. For the time being I’ll be using my Grit X + OH1/ H10 for team sports (when the pandemic allows) and S7 for everything else.

@aeroild adjustable HR zones would be nice!

I’m guessing we probably won’t see sensor support until a chip comes out with the ability to do BLE while only utilizing the low power cores. I wonder if the 4100+ is capable of this .
