System update – PXDZ.210326.002.A2

There is a lot to be said for the power saver tilt, and I mean a LOT.

I use it all the time and I think it is comparable in battery usage to the LCD screen that TicWatch devices use, although much, much prettier.

I do like the functionality of that Nomad watch face, but from the screenshots you show it doesn’t have the data I want (although I do appreciate it is likely customisable and also there isn’t going to be a watchface that works for everyone ) as I want steps (to encourage me to do more), watch battery, and day with date.

I also think that the Solstice face is not only nicer looking than Nomad, it is one of the nicest looking watch faces around!

No problem, guys. I use the Nomad watch face with AOD and the battery usage is not really important for me. And it’s great in WearOS that every user can find and use the watch face which has all desired features.

Have fun with your S7 and your preferred watch face!

Just a question, I cant seem to figure out, am I supposed to be able to see pulse statistics in the suunto app. I can see sleep, calories, steps and sort by day, week etc. But not pulse?

@erjo_ heart rate is available in the daily view.

@isazi thats what i thought! Any reasons it might now show up? Settings that i can do to make it show?

This! This is one of the main reasons I love Android and WearOS, there is something for everyone and you can customise pretty much everything

@ianharding I’m glad that this has helped.

@ianharding that is strange, as those animations should be enabled by default and from the factory.

Yes, exactly, some users enabled the developers options to touch this setting to No Animation and turn their device bit faster/less lagged, by this I suggested this possibility.

I agree with you. For the moment I continue using the Suunto watchfaces, but I really like more the Soltice Watchface without the animation… Yes, I’m a strange bugs… pure black and all infos there. Cosmetic like this background not add too much for me (unless it’s customizable) , but each have their own opinion. For example on Sports Mode I have a field of Activity Duration always fixed on bottom of the screen. I can’t change the value of this field, but I have available this field information to add on the upper rows. Would be great if we can customize also this lower field. For me, in some activities, is a unuseful information that use space of the screen but I understand that not everyone think like me, maybe fortunately

Today doing a running activity, around 40 seconds after start, the screen turned completely black The buttons continued responsive, but no action on the display. Because I coudn’t see anything I pressed the left button until vibrate to shutdown. After restart the S7 worked like always, perfect.
After sync to my mobile saw that this activity was correctly recorder with a duration of 52 sec.

Can be any related to the new firmware or only bad lucky this time?
This never happened to me before with an Suunto watch.
@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos It’s useful this track/activity to check? or not have sense and it’s safe to delete? Thx!

@flypg The same thing happened to me.

Might be a good idea to start a new thread. Anything posted in this one gets drowned pretty quickly.

@aleksander-h Thx!, done, even until now I could not replicate the situation, which sounds good

No, it is pre installed on S7 with the latest update

@hqvkamil You need to have the lastest firmware installed. You can longpress (2s) the watch face to change to the watch face selection mode on your S7, also you can change from the WearOS app.
