SOFTWARE UPDATE 2.33.12 - Q1 2024

Iggge

@Tieutieu yes, it does. But I want to fully lock the watch. During wintertime when using gloves my gloves often accidentally presses the buttons.

@sartoric
maybe and update you didn’t recognise?

I would like to write a FEW POSITIVE WORDS about the last update. As we all know from the very beginning, Race has some annoying bugs, and a few new ones have appeared recently, but…
I currently have my third Race. I buy it, use it for a few weeks, get discouraged and return it or sell it. Then comes the update, I buy another one in the hope that it will be better
I must admit that after the last update, Race runs incredibly smoothly, using the menu is finally as it should be. Changing options during training is also smooth, as is waking up the display with a hand gesture. Additionally, my wrist heart rate measurement finally started working properly. The last 13km run and not a single big drop like before. I’m really impressed. I believe that Suunto will give us a new update in a few days that will at least fix what it broke recently. Thanks to this, many of us will regain the joy of using Race… and then it will only get better and better… and in a few weeks I won’t have to sell my beautiful watch again

@SuperFlo75 Yep, I brought up the same thing. I’d love to able to set and see a couple of parameters on the map screen. Distance would be really useful, even the time of day. Just give us something!

@gizmo about the wrist HR… I can say that it does look better. Prior to this update I only ever ran with my chest strap as cadence lock would set it very quickly. I’m talking my HR supposedly going from 50 to 180 in the space of 45 seconds.
This morning I had to dash for 7 minutes and didn’t wear a chest strap, but the wrist HR worked ok for once. I’ll need to dig a little deeper as it’d be nice to not have to use a chest strap for my easy runs, but at first glance, this looks good

The CTL has started to “drift” by one unit lower on the watch on the start of every day, but it gets fixed on the second sync, the first sync almost never does the trick. I am on the Vertical.

Tieutieu

@mlakis I noticed the same. My first « guess » was that the watch was calculating an updated CTL even if not synchronized with SA.

@mlakis I would also guess that the app does the calculation on its own, but also gets the numbers from the app/backend via sync. And since the backend is the single source of truth, whatever is calculated locally gets overwritten. But it’ s interesting, that this happens on the second sync. Maybe there’s an async calculation process on the backend involved, which is not done at the first sync of the day or triggered by the first sync of the day. Either way, I am happy that the numbers on the watch are finally correct

Hello,
A question on sleep tracking (in Suunto App):
Is “veille” (in french) for non-sleep/wake-up duration ?
Thanks

I just tried biking (Race on the suunto Bike mount) with Always on display enabled. Navigation is unusable, it is fine when display is bright, but it dims in 10s and it is almost impossible to see even in shadows. On the direct sunlight it is invisible. I had to click watch every time I wanted to navigate my route. This is really terrible and it needs to be fixed asap.

I don’t noticed so much issues about it, but i’m glad to have it, for the new watch faces and all the new fixes…
And especially now my s9pp notifys and displays me back again when the watch reach the lower power limits.
It was broken in the last firmware.

I had one time a “strange” notification on the watch that I never had before. The watch noticed me that I was seatdown too long, more than 2 hours…
quite interesting, I find it good, but I ask me where are the settings of it, to be able to change something (time, enable/disable I don’t know what else…)

sartoric

@cemoi71
did you check the manual?

cemoi71

@sartoric I’ve checked it yes, but didn’t have look deeper inside in place that you’ve pointed.
In french it is translated in form that we could interpret it as “wake-up” too.
Which it don’t lead me to think that is could handle on the movement by seating too.
Only a thinking point of view…
Many thanks for having pointed to me

<sarcasm-on> Love this new always-on “breadcrumbs” option on my 9PP <sarcasm-off/>

Joking aside, another firmware update brought new regression bugs. It isn’t surprising, is it? If we read this thread we can see people once again are complaining about very basic use cases - dark screen while biking, useless airplane mode from the widget, breadcrumbs etc. It looks like Suunto doesn’t care about software QA at all and it’s very very sad.

It’s to avoid getting lost while track running…

Yeah, this new always-on “breadcrumbs” option on the 9PP is not cool at all.

@false Regression in sw development unfortunately can happen, the real problem is waiting months for patching when regression seriously impairs usage. Always-on breadcrumb is only nuisance imo.

Dušan Ković

Does anyone has any info on bugfix update for bunch of problems that users are encountering?

Thanks

what is always on breadcrumbs, please ?
is it the capability to remove the breadcrumb screen ? I just tested with my wife’s S9PP and it is still possible with activity navigation option. Am i confusing things ?

A Former User

@Mff73 The navigation option is not remembered once set to another value
