    @2b2bff said: @stromdiddily there is no universal “This is a workout file, deal with it watch” format. If you are pushing a workout to Garmin, you define the steps. If you push the workout to Suunto, you define a SuuntoPlus Guide. I don’t know how Coros or Apple Watch does handle it. So, Training Peaks - or any other platform for that matter - has to include the respective framework for each brand individually… The other way around, if you read the finished activity from the watch, there is a format that has been widely adopted: Garmin FIT files. I see, this makes sense…thank you

    @DonTomGot No problem, I am more of a Swift guy myself. The functions arcSegment, drawGaugeBackground, pointer and renderGauges are declared as in the onLoad method in t.html. onActivate is also in t.html, same as the onLoad method. The canvas declaration goes at the end of the HTML code in the same file. Good luck

    @OutdoorMan, noting connected (I don’t own an HR belt) and not sure why Bluetooth is still on even after I put it in power-saving mode. Bluetooth is on during my workout, so I can see notifications from my phone; otherwise, it’s off. I keep Aeroplane mode on, so wireless and Bluetooth are off during regular daytime use.

    @sky-runner, same issues: my watch uses 7-10% battery even in power-save mode overnight.

    First of - thanks to Suunto for opening up the possibility to enrich their marvelous watch lines with features that many users have been missing! It is always amazing to see where the combination of ingenuity and a (somewhat) open development platform takes us. Being a road-runner with some sort of ambition to optimize races I have been missing a race pacer that allows for freely defining pace segments. The races I have participated in (Gothenburg area, Sweden) are quite often pretty hilly and I have found that I waste energy in the wrong places and therefore needed an app that could provide some guidance. The requirements were pretty close to “RaceWarden Pacer” - but I was missing the possibility to define the distance for the various segments of the race. And. With age comes poor eyesight, so I needed BIG (and clear) numbers to control the pace. The logic/thinking: You define your pacing strategy based on the elevation profile of the race and potentially other factors - this is all done outside of the app. Example from “Göteborgsvarvet” where I decided to try Jack Daniels’ Running Formula which roughly translates to -8s/km/%-gradient (uphill) and +5s/km/%-gradient (downhill). But that is outside the app, just the background to the pacing strategy. [image: 1780157300180-2026-05-18_19-54-08.png] The pacing strategy is pushed to the app through user defined app settings: Segment Distances (km or mile): 2.45 1.79 1.36 1.36 6.59 7.8 Segment paces (min/km or min/mile): 5:18 5:03 5:37 4:55 5:12 5:14 (Is it possible to have two input fields in app settings?) With the user input the total race length is calculated by summation of the Segment Distances (21,35km) - overall race target time (1:51:26) as well as target pace (general) is also calculated. Then comes the tricky part. What is really needed / what can be displayed to help pacing (remember: poor eyesight)? I removed heart rate as I have found it does not work (for me) during races, and landed in the following configuration: [image: 1780125397727-2026-05-30_00-06-13.png] Segment Target Pace: Derived from user input and displayed once a segment is recognized/completed. In essence this is a pretty static value, that only changes when a segment is completed. Segment Pace: Calculated. Similar to Lap Pace but utilizes the user defined Segment Distances/Segment paces, so it’s dynamic and updates as you run. Total Seconds ahead/behind Race Plan: Defined as the deviation between race plan and completed distance/time; naturally dynamic. Needed Pace: Based on initial user input finishing time and total race length are calculated. This is the pace needed for the remaining part of the race to reach the target What would you see as missing? The remaining challenges: I would like to have (I believe) at least some indication on heart rate - but I am not able to get the standard zone gauge to work and lack the skills to create one by myself with the canvas mysteries I tested to include an additional ahead/behind indicator focusing on ahead/behind per segment - but felt that it became more confusing and the display became to crowded - could this potentially be incorporated as a gauge? Compatibility - I believe maximizing fonts will be problematic for smaller watches but have not really had the energy to investigate what/how to make sure it works also for smaller displays Contrast - to me it seems yellow offers the best contrast, but is it just my eyes or a more common phenomenon? All input welcome! (unfortunately it seems my application for the partner development has got lost in the mail, as I applied many weeks ago) Also - I used the app (very successfully) during a recent race!

    My Race S also inflates the elevation gain. I don’t know if it has also done this but I noticed a month a go when it reported triple on an about town bike ride. I use the Strava feature to correct and have confirmed that this issue is with the watch as the routes and climbs are known elevation gains that are much less then the watch summary. The sensor is clean as is the watch It has been restarted It has been synced before the start of every ride It is set to use GPS data for elevation but still reports as if bar changes are overriding GPS values This seems to be systemic as there are other forum posts here and in Reddit about this issue. This is a fundamental feature requirement that a watch like this has to get right. As bad as if it couldn’t keep time or distance. Imagine the watch saying you did 10 hours when you did 1 or 100 miles when you did 20.

    @Horizontal_2 exactly. Every watch has their so called “hero” watch face. It is pre-installed with the firmware. Which makes sense, as there must be one, even if you remove all using the app. Of course this hero watch face is not in the app. It is on your watch.

    @dreamer_ I’m built similarly to you so glad I stuck with the Race 2. Maybe you’ll change back after the update! I didn’t want to pay an additional £100 for a torch and bigger battery, neither of which I need. This would also come with more bulk and omission of the scroll wheel which I like for zooming the maps. I wonder whether this update will be included in the next quarterly one or a separate earlier fix…

    Hi agree the app need a profound re-design regarding diving. Basic : log dives number log dives separate dives by devices, when dive with Nautic & Nautical S the dive get duplicate Tanks stats gas used PPo2 bottom time surface interval deepest dive longest dive ascend time ascend rate Total dives Total EAN dives Total Deep dives Dive plans Total time Max time Average time Max depth Average Max depth Min SAC Max SAC In my opinion should be a specific dive section inside the app only to log dives, and able to hide all the other activities metrics.
