DND during activity disable activity notifications
-
@Anthony-Guillemette whatever seems basic: this activity-specific setting is not there.
So you have to live with one of the 4 options.
If you need phone BT for music, then there is option #5
5) disconnect watch in the BT settings of the phone during the workout -
@Egika I know, but it could be a great improvement. This is why I throw this suggestion here.

Hi,
I’m a former Polar user and I’ve been moving to Suunto’s ecosystem for a week now. Everything seems to work with my new Suunto Race S super great and the change from Polar to Suunto haven’t been as hard as I expected. Today was my first run with Suunto and everything seemed to work like a charm until there suddenly started a long conversation in one WhatsApp group chat and because of that I got notifications about new messages so often that I missed several 1k running marks. I never had this kind of problems with Polar and I must say that I’m quite disappointed that there really isn’t build in feature to mute mobile notifications while training. -
@Akuaku turn off BT is my workarround atm
-
@Akuaku I literally run away from my phone
(i leave it at home). My activity time is my time to disconnect… no phone and no distractions. -
Does DND mode doesn’t solve the problem?
-
My experience that DND completely turn off every alarm and notification including notification from S+ as well.
Which is hearting me that when automatic DND turn on with sleep monitoring, then the sunrise alarm cannot work, while DND active. This is not so practical, I think.
On the otherhand for example in IOS there is a really good stuff for this, which is Focus. There I can create focus profiles and customize which type of notifications are active or not. Unfortunately this is not work with Suunto App, so every notification landing on the watch, whatever focus profile is active on the phone.I guess from the mix of those two above resulted in a perfect solution.
-
I would really like to have a “Do Not Disturb during activity” option in the activities menu that would be a bit different from the general “DND” function:
- disable mobile notifications (only during activity)
- keep loop vibrations and automatic lap notifications
As I said before, disabling BT on the phone is not a possible workaround for me because I want to run with music (BT headset).

@Anthony-Guillemette
And from the app itself?
I just checked, it can be toggled during activity.
-
@Mff73 yep, could be another workaround. But it need to be manually reactived after activity.
Still just a workaround ^^
