Software update 2.18.18 Sept 28 2021

@pavlas it can be turned off in the Settings, but my feeling tells me you want it off during activity and on while in watch mode right?

I think it’s a global option at the moment.

[Dušan Ković]

@surfboomerang Yup, it needs to be per activity. I just came home from trail run.

• turning media controls in watch settings is not user friendly, it just takes too much time.
• when I don’t listen to music during activity media control screen is just another unused screen that I have to skip in order to get to useful stuff on other screens. I know it is just one button press, but when you are running through forest you don’t need just one more press
• before activity start, there are options where we can turn wrist HR, sensors, gps, etc on or off. It would be best for media control on or off switch to find its place somewhere here

[Pavlas]

@dušan-ković Yes, I totally agree.

I think I’ve found a bug:
It happens if you scroll through watch faces, click on one to choose colour. Instead of choosing a colour, swipe all the way back home. A new watch face is now being applied.

I’ve found another bug. Swiping left on the monochrome white watch faces the month is not visible (black text on black background)

@dmytro @halajos
Maybe collect the watch face issues here?

@halajos can I have a video ?

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@dmytro thats by design

S9 (non-baro): Even after the update, I still get grey icons of the already synced activities in logbook. I wonder if it is a watch firmware issue or perhaps some SA (android) sync issue? @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos You know how the sync works, right?

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@inkognito anyone else with this issue ?

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

FYI for the most here. Tomorrow another release patch will come. Fixes the issue with the S9P watchface on S9B having reactions to touch.

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos thanks, that’s great!

includes unwanted button touch, right? …ok, just kidding… and subtly wanting to mention it again

[nseslija]

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos Great, thanks!

[surfboomerang]

@freeheeler I think if there ever will be a lock button feature Suunto will certainly name it after you

@freeheeler good one right ?

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos
absolutely!! I like puns
…but only my SA connections will understand

[Łukasz Szmigiel]

@dušan-ković yeah like - why even show the screen if there’s no media detected and it stays blank?

I’m worried that it may not get its way into workout settings as it’s impossible in current state of firmware and may require rewrite of workout preparation module which won’t come soon (or ever).

This is somewhat similar to standby in S5. It would be great if it was also programmable per workout.
