Developing for S+
-
Hi all,
Whilst I wait for my first Suunto watch to be delivered I have been looking into the platform and options available.
The idea of the S+ apps is really appealing and after finding a couple of GitHub repositories from @isazi it looks like these are developed using JavaScript and the like. Which made me think it would be good to have a crack at some ideas.
However can you develop for the platform if you are not a ‘partner’?

@FunkyLarma Not at this time but Suunto may consider opening up development for S+.

Thank you for the heads up @Brad_Olwin
It is definitely something I would be interested in and think it would help benefit the Suunto platform. Having read through the link @Mff73 referenced it is clearly on the radar for Suunto, so can only hope it moves forward.
Reading the comments it is clear there is some concerns over stability but I think an SDK that was clearly isolated to local devices would drive knowledge of the brand and platform and could increase user base. Of course an ‘app store’ would need moderation which does require resources from Suunto but it could really help pay off in the long run.
Regardless, I have cast my vote and wait to see
