Thread for feature ideas for the Suunto Core 2

AdamK

Hello everyone,

I’d like to start a thread to gather feature ideas for the product team behind the Suunto Core 2.

I think it’s a top-notch product—I actually owned two of the earlier-generation models. Fortunately, the new generation supports firmware updates, so I’d like to share and consolidate ideas from others as well. If anyone from the team happens to read this, that would be fantastic—we’d all be very happy to see updates!

Here are my suggestions:

The option to set different alarms for weekdays and weekends.
Extending the depth gauge range from 2 meters to 10 meters.
For the step counter: the option to disable the daily goal (i.e., just track steps without an alert sound when the goal is reached).

Thanks a lot, and all the best to everyone!

I would take your first request a step further: “Alarms can be set for specific days of the week”. That was introduced on my race s with the last firmware update half a year ago and now you can select on which days that alarm should sound. Before that you had the options “once” “weekdays” “everyday”. But “weekdays” is already annoying, because I only work 4 days a week and suunto decided a weekday is 5 days a week.

Your second request might be hardware dependent. There must be some pressure sensor, and it might only be accurate up to a certain point.

Your third request is how it works on my race s from the start.

It always puzzles me why the a function one watch works differently than the same function on an other, from the same manufacturer.
