Tides not syncing
-
Thanks, yes have that working, it intermittent which is the annoying part.

@Feissty I am experiencing the same, it worked for two days and in the past three days it refuses to update, syncing, power off/on, nothing works. I am near the sea and gps is working perfectly fine in both the Suunto App (iPhone) and the watch (Ocean). It feels like an early release of an unfinished app, very unreliable.

It seems like the gps radius set really small in the app. Yesterday I was in Cabourg (France, Normandy) having dinner and noticed the Tide app showed data again, showing Houlgate as the location. Today we were at the shore of Houlgate, next to Cabourg, and guess what? No data again while the data loaded in Cabourg even a two days forecast. Suunto, please fix this as it is very unreliable.

@Gilles-van-der-Have please remember, that this is a user forum. While some of the community memeber also work for Suunto you are not talking to Suunto directly here…

@Egika thank you, I am aware, as with many forums i anticipate on Suunto monitoring theirs to further improve their products and services.

Every time I report a bug and tell suunto support more people on their forum complain about it, they always ask if I can provide links to those topics.
It could be that Suunto support tries to annoy people by asking a lot of info or it could br they haven’t got a clue what’s going on on their forum.

@aqua86 Hi! Also, any chance it can be suggested to cache an entire region tide chart on the watch so that it’s not required to sync at all for years for a given region (except to correct published errors, etc…it can still sync but just to make corrections). Today, many watches can show tide data from around the world that are not smart / connected devices at all. The smart watch should at a minimum do what a dumb tide watch can do if possible. Having to sync daily (sometimes multiple times a day) isn’t a great experience for such a capable / expensive watch
Thanks!

My vertical 2 has not had any tide updates for several weeks after a few weeks of updating every 5-6 days for a few weeks. I am in Scotland within metres of the sea.

In the last 7-10 days the tides widget now seems to be working as I expected when it first launched. It updates every day with tide data and changes location when I move around the country. Still not sure of where it gets tidal data from as it’s not the same as other reputable sources of this information online which say the same thing, but it’s very close e.g within a few minutes either side. Very pleased. It’s a useful thing to have on the watch.

I think it should be either Stormglass (more likely) or Open-Meteo.
