Airplane mode
-
Why when I activate airplane mode on Suunto race & vertical, I keep getting notifications from the phone to the watch. What exactly is airplane mode supposed to do?
-
@Danny-poleg if you activate airplane mode through the Control Panel, it does nothing. This method is currently broken.
If you go to Settings->Connectivity and enable airplane mode that way, then it works. It will turn off wifi and Bluetooth.

@Mads-Hintz-Madsen thank you

@Mads-Hintz-Madsen I asked Suunto and they confirmed me that the behavior of that button (in the control panel) is to disconnect wifi but not Bluetooth. I asked why the two different airplane modes in the watch and they said it may be streamlined in the future.

@isazi thanks for following up on that. Slightly confusing with the same name for different functions.

@isazi Thank you for explaining this! I think it is another example of some weird logic that makes sense to Suunto employees, but confuses customers/users of the watch.
Another one that I’ve been confused about is why “Alarms”, not Alerts (sunrise, sunset, storm alert)? It would make it less confusing next to Alarm clock, which could be just Alarms.

@Mads-Hintz-Madsen I’ll report if there are changes.
