@Adrian.S I am sorry, but what are you referring to?

@shamilt1 correct, the Vertical 2 shows no sign of shortening the distances. It’s just the Race 2. I had some chatter with Suunto help, and it seems they are aware of the issue with the Race 2 (but who knows if or when an update will make any changes to the algorithm).

@Mff73 In my opinion, the negative interpretation often depends on the stress level of the person reading. Firmware updates are something many of us users really look forward to, because besides fixing bugs they also bring improvements that let us enjoy our devices even more. Over the past weeks I’ve submitted several feature suggestions (like the one about customizable alarms and notifications), confirmed bugs reported by other users, and reported a few that I personally found. I also went back and read some older posts from two or three years ago, and many of the suggested features keep appearing again over time. So I’m not sure the next updates will actually resolve or improve that much. Still, as a user I hope they will, and as a fan I’m always curious and a bit impatient to see what the next update will bring.

@matteo_000 I am also a little upset by this behavior after my first spring ride with the new Vertical 2 ️ Special display/map setting for bike would definitely be very beneficial.

@maszop, hi! I also see dropped connections every now and then that reconnect and they are per sensor but in the cases described above the sensors do not reconnect even after extended time and they all drop.

@Christoph-Van-Laethem In here the bubble appears : https://www.suunto.com/fr-fr/Assistance/ I realized that the bubble doesn’t come on when using my main browser (Firefox), probably due to the ad blockers I added, so i use Edge only for Suunto support

@MikeC30 said in My Vertical 2 Wishlist for Next Update in 2026: More detail when zoomed out on the maps at 1, 2 and 5km would be really helpful. Particularly some contour lines to give an idea of the terrain and some points of interest like hill summits. Well, for now we don’t even have trails when zooming out beyond 200m, although reportedly some improvements are coming soon. And while we are there, please improve the contrast so that trails aren’t rendered as dark green on light green. Please render trails with black color on the default map and with other higher contrast colors on other types of maps! Or least least make them wider lines. Seeing summits on the map would be great!

@multisport76 check for cycling sports mode, then it has subsets, you’ll see cycling power in there. Or just create a new one and add power-related fields and off you go

@Christoph-Van-Laethem said in Styd update Sync Vertical 2: linking the Stryd is not always possible: it keeps asking for the crank length OMG, this is still not resolved? Good thing I abandoned the idea of getting Stryd.

Hi everyone, I am experiencing similar issues on my Suunto Race since a few weeks. The heart rate is often too low (so far only observed while running), sometimes there are sudden jumps after a while. When using an external heart rate sensor, it works. What you should do if you experience the same: Contact Suunto Support! Only then they will now about it. I did this and they told me they are currently not aware of such an issue, but will investigate. They also asked me to upload my log files via the mobile app and will check them. The more people report this, the higher chance that this gets fixed soon. You can find their support chat directly on www.suunto.com by clicking on ‘Support’ at the top and then using the chat on the bottom right.

@reijervanrijsbergen I’m having the exact same issue. It’s further complicated by GNSS jamming. I’ve noticed that once the heart rate signal is lost, it doesn’t always recover, even when the watch is worn directly on my wrist rather than over a jacket. Coros HRM + Suunto Race S.

@Nandodiver said in In Backcountry skiing it sucks!!!: @Brad_Olwin 220 minus age that’s the official method largely used for more than 30 years More recently in 2023 some endurance athletes start using the “Nes formula” 220 minus age: 220 - 60 = 160 bpm Nes formula: 211 - (0.64 × 60) = 211 - 38.4 ≈ 173 bpm Most of those formulas are poor, it does not matter how long they have been used. Typically the subjects the formulas are based on are sedentary or do not exercise much. Second, max HR is highly genetically determined and variable. For me the formulas give numbers that would severely negatively impact my training. Max HR should be determined by training if possible. There have been many posts here and I see on Apple forums where individuals are exercising for 60 min or more in Z5.

Suunto please look into this. Give an option to turn off buzz on connect maybe? I’m getting a bunch on my new PP9 and seem to have no reason for them. Supper wasn’t helpful

@ahstreak Bonjour je viens d acquérir une suunto run depuis vendredi dernier les cadrans y sont bien mais pas synchronisables. J ai dialogué hier avec un gars du support suunto il m a répondu que l application mobile avait des problèmes de synchronisation. J espère que cela va être resolu car ça commence mal pour moi avec ce produit . Je m interroge sur la fiabilité de cette application . Je souhaite que tout se passe pour le mieux ensuite car pour l instant je suis déçu du produit.

@nandodiver hi. i have two questions. does Suunto nautic s support 3D dive map sharing like in suunto Ocean? lastly, would you prefer it to the Garmin Descent G2? thanks

@pavel.samokha said in Sports Tracker on Apple Watch: app crashes when taking a break while following a route: I transmitted it to developers Thanks Pavel

@Squirrel Thank you! So I will charge it inside from now on.

Apologies if this isn’t the right topic to be posting this issue but it is certainly pertinent to the use of external HR sensors with the Suunto Run. Putting aside the issues i have had with the Coros armband which i have posted about in that specific topic i have also experienced issues when using a chest strap. The HR graph normally looks absolutely fine as expected but i am usually given a different max heart rate in the run summary. [image: 1772494841112-screenshot_2026-02-22-18-21-23-970_com.stt.android.suunto.jpg] [image: 1772494883386-screenshot_2026-02-22-18-21-44-133_com.stt.android.suunto.jpg] This example is from a run where i chucked in three sprints and as the graph shows my heart rate doesn’t go above 180 which is inline with what i expect for the effort. With a chest strap the Heart rate summary seems to always be different to the graph. What’s odd is when using a chest strap, which works perfectly with my other watches, i get this max heart rate discrepancy and the synced data in Strava will show a mix of the correct max heart rate which is reflected in the Suunto produced graph or it will show what i’m sure is the incorrect max heart figure as produced in the Suunto app summary. There seems to be something going on here with the relationship between watch and external sensors and how the data is all displayed within the app. Is this something seen before on Suunto or unique to how they process the data? My experience with Suunto only extends to the use of the Suunto Run having used Garmin for years.
