    @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos please commit that standby of spartan line watches is awful, I have to turn DND, turn on airplane mode, untoggle 24/7 HR, to have at least moderate standby if this is not done I cannot get more than 7days of standby, so please give me power off ability which could on 50% charge be kept for months… Imagine person who is having multiple suunto watches and you need to charge each every week this is not so convenient way of handling things…

      @SlaSh You do not have to turn DND mode on or airplane mode on. The watch standsby when not moved. Just put it at a place it does not get vibrations.

      This is a thread about FW update

          Also noticed that another bug in Sleep Resume has corrected…

          Every morning see that the watch was doing wrong difference between Sleep Goal and Real Sleep Time (it was correct in last 7 days list, but not in Resume)

          Yeah! 🙂

            on the Trainer it looks, at least for today, i actually got a complete 12h heartrate graph (no blank spots).

            hope it continues like this now, previously i rarely had a full graph.

                don’t know if theis is new or asked before:
                what does the “Power Saving” toggle in the general settings actually do?
                At least I don’t see an immediate result.

                Thank you!

                  @Egika turns vibrations off , I think also lowers brightness and turns BT comms off. Not 100% on all that but this is what I had seen in the past testing it.

                    Great update for SSU from my point of view. I like the new way looking at the time during the activity (I know it’s been on S9 for some time) - holding the right bottom button with the option to lock the display.
                    I wonder whether it wouldn’t be possible do something similar with the backlight? Holding the middle button for example and choose to turn on the backlight or access the options menu? Or something like that? That would solve the issue with toggle mode when you turn off the touchscreen.
                    Is it possible to turn off the touchscreen from the power saving activity menu? Or somewhere else? I think this could be there as well when you can already set autolaps etc.
                    Otherwise I am satisfied with the update (no battery modes but I can live with that:))

                          @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Thanks for the info. Is it possible to turn on the backlight with the middle button on SSU now? I need to try it out. Regarding the touch screen I am unable to find the option. Is it really there? Are you sure?

                              Not only that, but my guests are going hungry. No grilling until both watches are charged and upgraded, he-he! Should have asked for ribs. At least, they take long enough for me to update in parallel 😋

                                @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos no problem. I think it’s not there. At least I can’t see it. But it would be good option 🙂

                                  @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos is this feature (“holding a little the middle button to turn on backlight” during activity) available on S9?

                                  Just tried with Running and Walking on my S9 with 2.5.18.

                                  1. If after starting exercise screen is locked (using lower button):
                                    1.1. short press on middle button - switch between activity screens;
                                    1.2. long press on middle button - ‘Locked’ message is displayed.

                                  2. If after starting exercise screen is not locked:
                                    2.1. short press on middle button - switch between screens;
                                    2.2. long press on middle button - exercise “Options” menu is shown.

                                  NB. Probably, activation of backlight by single long press is not good idea, since it can be accidentally caused by sleeves or gloves, resulting in battery drain. Especially, when buttons are explicitly locked to avoid such misfortune.
                                  Perhaps, some sequence could be helpful here (something like “long press + short press” of lower button that is used to unlock buttons).

                                    @kolyany4 Excuse me probably I confused the requirement.

                                    by holding a bit the middle button does not toggle the backlight state.

                                    It does however light up the screen just a little before the options is about to appear.

                                    Makes sense?

                                      Only gear image with circle around it is animated, though without any backlight active…

                                          It was found that
                                          Case 1:
                                          Setting->General->Backlight->Mode = Toggle
                                          and
                                          Exercise->…->Options->Backlight = Normal,
                                          then backlight is not activated during Exercise if buttons are pressed.

                                          Case 2:
                                          Setting->General->Backlight->Mode = Automatic
                                          and
                                          Exercise->…->Options->Backlight = Normal,
                                          then backlight activates if I press any button (during Exercise)…

                                          Thus, it would be great to have option to activate backlight during Exercise even when Mode == Toggle…
                                          which doesn’t mean that in latter case backlight should be activated whenever button is pressed: I activated Toggle mode for backlight to save battery as much as possible, and I want backlight on only if I explicitly activate it (e.g., by some key combination in this case)…
