    I guess the only way to get some more attention of Suunto on that topic is to write down about this situation on Suunto’s instagram and Facebook profiles, as here we just write about this issue among the the Ocean owners, we already spent our money… we are less interesting for them. Said true is that the future owners and future revenues are always much more important…

    I did not comment but I’m testing my Spark. So feedback post: Sound quality is really good. Build quality is very nice. They feel really premium. Not so good things: The touch is too sensitive. I have disabled by default the “one click” Audio notifications are exactly the same as without the Spark. I knew that, but I didn’t expect the latin american spanish for Spain. Metrics are not integrated with the watch. I think the S+ app should have two more options: An option to toggle on/off things like navigation audio indications, so users can decide if they want the navigation audio indications (which are very useful in several cases). For that, Suunto should implement the feature (which is still missing). An option to toggle on/off to use the metrics taken from the Spark’s pedometer in the main activity in the watch.I mean, to not have 2 activities in the app (watch and spark). Something similar that what happens when you are using a chest/arm strap. One activity with the much better bpm taken from the chest/armstrap, not two. Something similar happens here with the Spark, since you have 2 additional pedometers that are going to work a lot better than in a one moving arm. For someone that made the effort of buying the Spark, I see this as an important software bug that should be solved. Having 2 individual activities has not sense (at all). Ideally: Go further with a firmware update for using pedometers of the spark for indoor/treadmill runs, if possible of course. Things like voice notes while on workout (if possible). Just those little things for making the Spark a must and a perfect companion.

    Hey guys, could someone make HRV reading work? I do not get the values, even tough the Suunto Smart Belt is conencted. In the SImulator it says “undefined” for /HrvRmssd [image: 1778225463781-3b15736a-9e26-4429-b7f4-d9b54347d637-image.png]

    @Ze-Stuart Great question! It actually reminds me of how my deep dive into the Suunto ecosystem began. For me, these watches aren’t just sports gear; they are a technological puzzle - kind of like Sudoku, but with more hex code. After OpenSuuntoPlus launched, I was desperate for app examples to help me write my own. I decided to dig into the firmware, hoping to find the “real” apps hidden inside. I found several files, including a filesystem snapshot, but it wasn’t just a simple sequence of bytes. Instead, it was a massive pile of small blocks scrambled in a seemingly random order. To better understand the algorithm, I decided to learn what Ghidra was all about (having never used it before). I naively thought watch firmware would be small, simple, and easy to analyze. I was… overconfident, to say the least! However, it was incredibly productive. I spent time forming hypotheses, checking memory chip specs, and diving into SDKs for embedded OS memory management. I even managed to “de-fragment” a working disk image from those scattered blocks, though I’m pretty sure a few bugs are still lurking in there. Around that time, I realized the role SDSApplicationServer plays in the system. I shifted my focus to the JSON-based REST API it uses. I figured if the VS Code extension could manipulate watch data through it, I could too. Ultimately, using the server was a much faster way to get data off the watch, and it largely confirmed what I’d spent days piecing together from raw blocks. So, back to your question: Now that I have a better grasp of the architecture, I’ve been exploring how to communicate with the watch directly via the browser. Remembering my experience with Ghidra - and noting that the firmware is tiny compared to the SDSApplicationServer binary (which is dozens of megabytes!) - I haven’t quite summoned the courage to go back to this approach! Analyzing serial interface dumps feels more manageable; control commands are usually just dozens of bytes. The more you work with them, moving from simple to complex, the clearer it gets. There are still plenty of mysteries left, but that’s exactly why I enjoy this “Sudoku” - it keeps things interesting!

    @duffman19 said in Min. Sleep HR too high?: @raven This has been discussed before and, if I recall, the reason for the discrepancy is that the minimum sleep HR is actually the lowest average HR over a given time period (I think 10 minutes? not sure, though). This can obviously differ from the absolute lowest specific HR reading. Appreciate the context. Given that info, I still feel there’s an issue here. As one can see from what I presented, I think it’s easy to think there’s a conflict between “Min Sleep HR” and the lowest point of the graph. It may be there needs to be a different label, something like “low sleep trend” that indicates the value isn’t the lowest recorded, but whatever it’s meant to represent. As it is, it just looks like the system is “lying” to me when it tells me my low sleep HR was X but it’s always actually X-2, or X-4, etc.

    @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos I wanted to mention that I had one crash a a few weeks ago, for which I had uploaded the logs, and the crash was then reported into the system with help of @Egika . In my case it was a vanilla Run sport with nothing special about it and me not doing anything with the watch at the time of the crash. The only special thing was, perhaps, is that I used the Run sport for the first time on the watch, but previously I did a number of activities with a customized Trail Run sport. If that helps, I can send you the details (crash time, etc) again in the chat.

Edit: Not sure if this applies to Suunto Run though.

    I did make some mistakes, but without any impact (wrong signature for getUserInterface, …) The actual real reason I did get the “Maximum SuuntoPlus Apps reached” is because I was using regex in main.js … This is not documented, so warning for all the other devs: do not use regex as this will work with the simulator but not with your watch!

    After 10 days, I have the answer provided by Komoot Hello there, Thanks for your message. What you’re seeing is related to how komoot processes imported GPX files, and I’m happy to explain what’s happening and what you can try. When you import a GPX file as a planned route, komoot doesn’t display the track exactly as it is. Instead, it processes it through its routing system. During this step, you’re usually given two options: Stick to original route: keeps the track as it is, though some sections may appear as straight (off-grid) lines if they don’t match known paths. Navigation can be less precise in those parts. Match route to known ways: adjusts the route to follow mapped paths, which can slightly change the original track but often improves navigation guidance. For round trips where the route overlaps itself (for example, going out and back along the same path), this processing can sometimes lead to unexpected results. You might see gaps, shifted endpoints, or the route not finishing exactly where it should. This can also lead to “off route” notifications on your watch. Regarding turn-by-turn instructions, komoot provides guidance slightly before the actual turn to allow time to react. On connected devices like Suunto watches, this can feel more noticeable due to how the data is transferred, so a small offset is expected. Larger differences are often linked to how the route was interpreted during import. Here are a few things you can try: Re-import the GPX file on the komoot website and choose Stick to original route, then review the route carefully before saving If the route is quite long and you’re using Premium, try importing it as a multi-day Tour with the same option After saving, open the route in the planner and check that the endpoint and path look correct before syncing it to your device If the route still doesn’t appear correctly after this, it falls into a known area where GPX imports can behave differently than expected. At the moment, there isn’t a way to fully prevent komoot from processing the file through its routing system. If you have any other questions or need assistance in the future, don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re here to help! Have a great day! komoot Support Team They basically confirm: GAPs and missing parts which can lead to “out of the route” notifications (and wrong Climb Guidance ones). Delays with turn-by-turn indications So those both navigation issues Suunto watches have, are basically caused by Komoot, as I was pretty sure. I’ll continue with the support explaining other things like several turns in quick succession (and considering the delays), but this is a dead end.

    Hi, to add some information to the matter, I noticed that if I had “WRIST HEART RATE” disabled, it wasn’t detecting my external chest strap (a new Polar H10). I selected it to avoid interfering with the watch’s optical readings. Therefore, after enabling wrist heart rate in the exercise options, it automatically detects the strap and monitors my heart rate during exercise. I would have to test if, after a medium-length stop during an activity, refueling, a forced pause, and restarting the activity, the heart rate recording with an external band continues… I understand that it will always be available with the optical sensor of the watch.

    @LitchiMonster said in Updates for V1: @Thomas-Gaggero from the features of the latest Q1 update, I hope the V1 at least gets: custom fields on map screen improved alarm (days of week) looping number picker the rest of the features would be nice too, but the above are the ones I’m missing. Other than those, I’d really like an ‘up ahead’ screen, so I can see the names and distances of upcoming way points along a route. Climb v3 is my only addition wish About alarms my only wish (concerns all watches) would be to be able to setup it during exercice (dedicated thread here)
