Why are my Moves automatically synced with my Sports Tracker account?
Suunto App is connected to Sports Tracker and the Sports Tracker database. If you used the same login credentials for Suunto app as for Sports Tracker, the same account is connected to both applications.

To avoid automatic synchronization create a new account for Suunto app (recommended). -
Why do I have duplicate Moves in my Suunto app and Sports Tracker account?
Suunto App is connected to Sports Tracker and the Sports Tracker database.

- Moves synced with SuuntoLink (cable) to Movescount will be automatically transferred to Sports Tracker, if your accounts are connected.
As a result, Moves can appear as duplicates in Sports Tracker and Suunto App.
