      @aleksander-h there aren’t supposed to be any announcements/leaks beforehand. And suunto usually updates all s watches in the same month.

      Yeah, I was surprised when S3/S5/S9 got updates in June, but not the S7. At the same time though, the S7 likely has nearly 0 code in common with the other watches, so no reason to expect an update to be ready at the same time.

        @aleksander-h oh that’s right, I forgot s7 didn’t get an update. Yeah, but the one it did get was very feature rich.

          the Suunto 7 has a different OS but It has a specific developing team to develop the new features following a update calendar with a probably “similar” deadlines than S3/S5/S9 …or at least we should know in advance when it will arrive as happened on the previous updates.

            I think we can consider July as a vacation month in Suunto at least for releasing hw/sw… for sure they are testing lots of things

                Hmm…what would be the updates they could possibly bring feature wise.
                Last update was excellent with sleep and resources. Only thing I can think of is auto pause, Suuntos’s altimeter, some new watch faces and sensor support (which would be awesome but most likely is not happening).
                Anyway with the last update the watch has nearly everything I want, only thing missing is the sensor support but all in all I’m very happy with it and Suunto has done a great job with it.
                From Google’s side I don’t care about the Wear 3.0. Only thing I’m waiting is the Gpay to be available in my region and maybe the YT music.

                  @jantikainen auto pause, customizable auto laps and customizable HR zones would be the big ones for me.

                    The one thing I’m missing is multiple sleeps per day. I often sleep quite oddly. For example 21 to 01 and the again from 05 to 08. When it “works” for this pattern, it only picks up one of them. If this worked, then it would hopefully also work tracking naps. Maybe we could get a toggle to “force” it recording sleep.

                      Me too.

                      Also customisation of notifications for WayPoints (Current overkill of 3 per Waypoint versus One alert at the Waypoint).

                      I think there’s quite a lot of UX improvements that could be made in the SA. Teeny fonts on the map screen that don’t react to ‘font size’, plus a more useful low-power alternative for the map screen.

                      plus Structured workouts, on-watch Race Time Predictor (one of the First Beat metrics).

                      I’d also really like to see a grade adjusted pace metric / wrist based power (like Coros have, which seems ‘reasonably’ close to an actual Stryd pod when I tested)!

                      But - pretty happy with how things are - would PREFER no functions but work on optimisations to increase battery even more!

                        Hi,
                        Version 4.43 of SA was supposed to arrive last week but it is behind schedule. We should arrive after the holidays at the beginning of September.

                        The S7 update is expected to arrive at the end of September

                        Wait, proud, & see ! 😜

                          To be frank, I think what you are asking for will be implemented on the S9 series but not the S7. in fact, the race time predictor and grade adjusted pace are already available as SuuntoPlus. I don’t want to be negative but I’d be
                          Surprised to see these on theS7.

                          Glad you like the watch. I wear my S7 a lot during the week and the S9P on the weekends.

                            Yeah they’re just “nice to haves”.

                            The S7 is a watch I can navigate an ultra with, and then buy a drink with it afterwards, then the next weekend get into a football match using a QR code stored in Google Keep - I don’t really need much else to be honest!

                              I use my S7 for almost everything now. Only use my SSU when I want to go several days without having to bring a power bank (camping in the woods for a few days for instance).

                                Hi, I have small tip for you. My watch can survive more than 3 days. I just switch it into airplane mode and I can spend weekend including whole Friday and two 40 minutes runs.

                                  I always forget to stop and start my watch when I am doing a long running then I usually see it is stopped after a few km afterwards I can feel my race didn´t have sense at all hehe. That feature would be very appreciated but I am using it every single days (7 days per week with double workouts thirst per week) doing fast intervals and have to check the watch when I am reaching the distance is very very hard when I am tired… It works fine … but the possibility to create a custom workouts from our suunto 7 (as garmin has with most of the models) or even define the auto lap could get us happy guys.

                                    Just getting the ‘hype train’ moving again 😉 (just for a bit of fun and chat, this is in no way intended to pester the developers).

                                    The last S7 update was in April and we are now in September. Do we think an update is coming?

                                    As @Nigel-Taylor-0 mentioned in a previous comment, the past updates for the S7 were…

                                    2020 - end of January - early April - late June - early September

                                    2021 - mid Jan - mid April - …

                                    Fingers crossed 🙂

                                      @olymay I’m with you. I’m really hoping to get a way to record naps and multiple sleep sessions pr day. I unfortunately often sleep for example from 21-01 and again from 04-07. It kinda works sometimesif I manage not to touch the watch in the awake period. Another thing I’d love would be strength training auto recognition, like Google Fit had. 🙂

                                          @jantikainen I am looking for something like this:
                                          https://www.qooapps.com/sporty-go-connect.html

                                          “You want to use the HR from your samsung watch or live data from “Sporty Go!” on your phone, spinbike or treadmill?”

                                          It could be very handy to avoid use a hr band when we are going cycling… but still not available for android.
