      I don’t know if many would pay a fee if they’re already available on other watches at no additional charge?

      I assume that there is always additional charge for functions like this - manufacturers should pay Strava for live segments, there is no free breakfast.
      So this price is either included into the watch price for all customers (vast majority of them doesn’t care about strava segments) or only users who really need the feature pay some additional subscription fee for that.

        By the way, EU now considers making 7 years of software updates or at least security updates mandatory for all phones. It’s only a matter of time that something similar comes up for sport- and smartwatches. Thus, I think, payments for updates are inevitable.

          this would be a great step for sustainability 👍

            It would be nice to a future S9 baro firmware to have the option:

            1. to calibrate the compass during an exercise (because on many occasions I’ve witnessed discallibrations during long hikes and open swimming exercises).
            2. to go back to main face during an exercise (because some info like date cannot be shown at any exercise face)

              @kostas-zinelis maybe it would be better/easier to implement if the date would be shown during pause instead? HR, time, duration are already accessible during a pause.

                Sorry, I was meaning to have the option to have battery percentage as a data field on an activity screen

                I do have it showing on my daily watchface

                It would be great but until that is implemented (and if it is…), what I do is that I start unlocking my watch (except I don’t) and the unlocking screen shows the current battery percentage

                      @frederic Same. At least it is accessible, would just be nice to have it visible without having to press any buttons 👍

                        Turns out Suunto was addressing the issue of interval training for the Spartan series back in 2017, but never implemented it. That’s too bad.😞 But there’s still hope.

                          I’m holding on to my S9B, sending it in for button repair today and hope that the lock function in watch mode will be implemented some day 🙂 ✊
                          I don’t use structured intervals very often, but I see the sense for having it 👍

                                Maybe Suunto is working on a Christmas ‘button lock’ update just for freeheeler 🤞 😁

                                    @freeheeler So maybe there is still hope for the lock button!
