@OutdoorMan said in 2025 Software Update Recap Video:
I am wondering if this is a mockup, or Run specific?
My brain straight away notices that the time is before the alarm so it means either the mockup designer didn’t pay attention, or a new sleep wave based alarm option is coming!
-
@Steven-Hambleton the alarm in the morning report is only shown if the alarm is in the future, so you can turn it off easily…
-
@2b2bff That’s a shame!

@pavel.samokha Vertical Run sport has been mentioned several times in that video as a new sport mode introduced in 2025.
I have just tried using it on my watch and it shows the following:
1st data screen: Ascent, Altitude, Vertical Speed in ft/hour, Elapsed time.
2nd data screen: Distance, HR, Ascent, Elapsed time
3rd data screen: Splits - seem to be focused on powerI wonder how it is different from Trail run with customized data screens other than focusing on vertical speed rather than pace? Also, if such Vertical Run activity was synced to Strava, will it appear in Strava as a Run or Trail Run?
Personally I pay tons of attention to vertical metrics and have a whole data screen dedicated to 4 different vertical metrics, but I record most of my runs as trail runs. I rarely do an activity that is a pure vertical run. Usually it is a mix of steep vertical and more runnable terrain.
Also, I wanted to mention that in my opinion, when a watch is configured in imperial units, using feet/hour unit for vertical speed is misguided for dynamic activities like Vertical Run or Trail Run when running on mountain terrain. For most people that would produce 4 digit numbers in the order of 1000-6000 ft/hour that are difficult to glance at, difficult to reason about, and that are too unstable - there is too much fluctuation in the last 2-3 digits, which makes reading these numbers difficult. Feet/minute is a much better unit which produces vertical speed in 0-100 range. That’s what Ambit series used as a unit for vertical speed, and that made much more sense.

@sky-runner I’m afraid I’m not the right person to answer this
-
really like this format.
-
@Steven-Hambleton ehm - why? What do you need the information about an alert in the past in the morning report?
-
It’s a shame that there won’t be a sleep phase based smart alarm - it worked really well on my Fitbit - I miss that feature!

That’s a different topic altogether. To have such an alarm you need a very good detection of sleep phase, what Suunto has not.
-
@2b2bff Well it’s exactly the topic I was talking about to start with.
