@pavel.samokha Great, learning everyday. Thanks !! @estragio So all is possible…[image: 1777522160714-screenshot_20260430_060652_suunto.jpeg]

@Webby-Skymaster I love my swimming, pool, lake, sea, I don’t care: just let me in the water! I’ve dabbled in all of the watches over the years. Here’s my take: Garmin + their pool belt is great for recovery metrics afterwards, but it’s a faff and I’m not sure it’s worth it. Their recent problems around distance tracking in a pool (their support told me I swim too fast; I’m really not that fast) is woeful. Apple: great for distance in the pool, eh for HR, but at least they reject bad data aggressively. Suunto: sure whatever. It’s been a sorry state since the hallowed era of the Ambit 3 and teaching it my swimming style. Form: and done. Take all the other swimming trackers, pop them in your locker, and accept this is the way. I know, it’s not integrated into any other system, but it’s so good I don’t care. HR is spot-on, distance is spot-on, workout generation is a delight, their training plans the same. Their two weaknesses are the OHR in cold water (12° and below) is obviously innacurate due to vasoconstriction, even over a 45m swim, and… there’s another but it escapes me. Oh! Field of view. If I’m somewhere pretty, I’m less likely to use them, but that’s rare. No Suunto integration but it’s just a determined day’s vibe code away, and there’s already some promising RE work available. Wishing you the peace in accepting no watch manufacturer cares about swimming enough to put the time in to solve the very complex problem of the last 20% of implementation, and the flexibility to move to the Form side.

@VoiGAS No complaints about GPS, however: wrist HR is quite bad, especially in certain sport modes sleep tracking is not accurate: does not detect short sleep interruption wrist HR during swimming is BAD. Not to mention many bugs of latest firmware, from high battery consumption, to erratic behaviours

Hence the phrase… All the gear, no idea

@pavel.samokha Thank you for the explanation… I didn’t see that update so apologies!

Hi, I have a similar issue here. I am on the Suunto Run and did a 10h trekking activity. The diary on the watch is showing no activity, however the activity is saved on the watch with regular info (graphs, etc). The issue is even though the watch is syncing properly, the activity is not showing on the app… I did try everything wirelessly (disconnect, restart, uninstall the app, unpairing) but none of these seems to work. Finally I did try to save another activity which I deleted after and it sync like it usually does. What can be done here ? Is there a manual way to retrieve the activity ?

@fondueaufromage Okay, appreciate your information ^_^

@pavel.samokha Understandable. Will make a repo

I also reported the issue (race s with polar oh1+ in my case). Got the usual blah blah reply (restart your watch, delete the connected device and repair again) I suggested they first look into their software and pointed to various threads on their forum about the subject. Strangely only the heart rate sensor lost connection. My stryd kept working during my athletics training.

@Petr-Manek Suunto’s company policy is not a democracy. Voting for ideas gives the product managers hints. But there are also other sources to make a BC out of the various ideas. This means: voting is never pointless, but also no guarantee for implementation there is almost never a “will not be implemented”. Just Suunto does not share their road map.

I have the same issue, but it is not only the latest firmware issue. In my case, this issue remains through the latest few firmware updates… For running I use heart belt and for walking and cycling wrist HR, but much more activities are ok then not ok. But when I didn’t have heart belt I was angry for this issue for running - for ruined values as you said…

@Hugues78fr yes please, this would be a game changer!

@Nandodiver Thanks! I voted!

@rwmastel0 Hi This is a known issue, https://forum.suunto.com/topic/12554/swimming-style-wrong https://forum.suunto.com/topic/14297/swimming-pool-laps-inaccurate/6 but Suunto hasn’t done anything about it

Sorry to hear about all the problems people have. Have Suunto acknowledged there is a problem and working on a fix or has they already “posted” the fix but it still remains?

@used2knowme Just looked @ this with my new V2, it’s barely noticeable between high & med brightness imo, & for mine the high brightness is not high enough.

Today I did another test with a different round-trip track. Editing those points of the track in Komoot does not seem to make any effect. The offset is always there. After a while, I went out of the route like 1km and then I returned to the route again and started running back in the route. The autoreverse did not work until a very long time. I started receiving notifications but after skipping many indications. Another little thing: The text when out of the route is extremely small and completely unreadable. This needs a little fix (that icon is just an invented one as an example, and colors and everything should be according to the layout) [image: 1777413648823-out_of_the_route.png]

Going to post it here also to see if Suunto makes this issue a priority to them. I saved today’s run to report tomorrow. 2 issues happened. Max heart rate much higher than registered on the HR chart and in the end I did a pause and the connection to the Suunto Chest Straps was lost when I restarted a few seconds later. The maximum HR registered by the chest strap was 154bpm but somehow on the Max HR in the intervals summary many values of 170bpm (these are wrong) appears. Also it can be seen that the HR chart doesn’t end. It was the pause. Unfortunately Suunto seems unable to solve this issue that affects all watches and makes all data contaminated by wrong measures or lack of them. The data sent to other plataforms like Strava or Intervals.icu is correct except for the disconnection in the end. [image: 1777409959845-1000098278.png] [image: 1777409959990-1000098277.png]
