Turn by turn notifications not working on imported tracks

[dreamer_]

Amazfit has added TBT notifications for the Ultra. I don’t know how they do work, if notifications are working on imported routes, if there are bugs or not or if they even work at all.

But the following capture shows the notification without covering the map and the remaining distance for the turn with while seeing the map until you take the turn (that distance is lowering while you are moving and arriving), which is in fact a very good desing:

@dreamer_
we have been said that ALL our dreams will come true with Suunto in the next FW ‍️

@Mff73 not all, but there will be a new feature in the map screen.

@Mff73 something like this maybe yes. Not ALL…

@Josaiplu TBT notifications seems to work on Strava routes in Coros https://www.dcrainmaker.com/2024/04/coros-vertix2s-in-depth-review-tested.html . Since Komoot seems to change the tracks, have you tried further with Strava?

@dreamer_ it does not work on my race with strava routes unfortunately

I have found this Coros resource:
https://support.coros.com/hc/en-us/articles/4407033997588-How-to-add-turn-by-turn-directions-on-a-GPX-file

It is interesting because they are using the site plotaroute.com to add the TBT directions on a gpx file. I’ll test it (but not on this weekend). So just posting it to see if anyone is interested in a try if it works instead of using the Komoot way.
As far as I know, TBT is not working on Coros either without modifying the gpx. But according to that DCR link I was posting, TBT notifications seem to work for Strava imported routes.

Here is a very small video of the new TBT notifications for Amazfit too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=061_eeClXeY
TBT notifications are there once imported the GPX file. I don’t know if they modified the file or if it’s working by default. The T-Rex Ultra is not a very sold watch, like it was the T-Rex 2 (which does not have that TBT notifications update). So there’s very little info about those TBT notifications and how they do work.

@duffman19 , you hit the nail here, the big problem that suunto has is indeed the timing of the tbt, completely silky and useless, and they do not change anything about this….

That’s right. Incredible (after so much time) but true.
