My Vertical 2 Wishlist for Next Update in 2026

Also, I’d like to have an option to permanently disable touch outside of activity and have it available only for map panning
I always set my Garmins that way. Would love this on the Race S as well…

@2b2bff I wanted to say that in the shower the watch almost always enters the widgets part of the UI because droplets tend to swipe the screen from the bottom to the top because of how the watch is positioned on the hand. Occasionally droplets swipe from the right to the left to enter the control panel.
It is rare for droplets to swipe the screen in other directions. A decent solution would be to introduce an optional touch auto-lock with the gesture to unlock it that requires to swipe the screen from top to bottom. That is the direction that is unlikely to happen naturally in rain or shower - you’d have to tilt the watch unnaturally.That’s what Garmin has done and that works effectively! I’d really like such touch auto-lock feature! Buttons should continue to work even when the touch is locked.
Suunto: Ambit, Ambit 3 Peak, 9 Baro, Race S, Race Ti, Vertical 2 Ti
Garmin: Forerunner 210, Forerunner 610, Fenix 6X, Fenix 7X Ti -
Connection with Concept2 Rowing Account or Maschine would be great.

@sky-runner no, I don’t like this. I rather have touch disabled completely and only enabled, when needed. Like in the maps. And Garmin has a button combination to disable/enable touch on the fly. But Suunto has not too many buttons…

My Wishlist:
- bring back stress monitoring during the day and body battery (resources) using HRV
- add mindfulness features
- more tiles than one
- consider bringing apps (not plugins to workouts)
-
VO2 MAX Cicling

@Brad_Olwin I look forward to a watch face design for people without eagle sharp sight.
I am older and have no issues with the choices of watch faces. I wear glasses but can read the watch faces without them. There are several to choose from that have fewer complications.

I know already discussed multiple times … better weather app pls! More data more outlooks more suitable for being in the mountains and ocean (tides!!! ) plsssss

@Brad_Olwin Good for you! I would like complications and I want to be able to read them at a glance, not squint.

Different pulse measurement intervals such as 1min or 5min.
Alarm names.
Notification when connection to the phone is lost. -
I would appreciate being able to customise what long button pushes do during an activity. I have never needed to access multi sport or the control panel during an activity. If we can customise what a long button push does when not doing an activity, I’d hope it would be possible to add this for during an activity.
With the vertical 2 and its torch, one long push would be useful to activate this feature for short sections in town where there is no street light or in short tunnels to provide a bit of light to guide me when a head torch would be overkill. It’s quite hard to activate the torch from the control panel whilst running.

For the next update, I would like to see more options regarding the brightness of the AMOLED screen. It is still very bright even at the lowest setting. Additionally, a red shift mode after sunset would also be very pleasant.
