-
- Clean and smooth interface
- Reliable sync and notifications

-
- Heatmaps by any kind of sport. Nobody have this.
- Clean UX.
- Offline sync.
- Reports by month, week, year very easy.
- The autocomplete comments when I do intervals.
- Social but not oriented to.
- Route planing, I use it so much that I need a way to sort off or filter.
- Report by intervals and autolap.
- Epoc.
- Native support of power in running.
-
Route planning by far the coolest thing!
-
Route planning, fast sync, powerful search activities, sports mode custom and the general look and feel
-
@jean-william-cousin sport mode customization is pretty slick!
-
Funny how a while ago a lot of people claimed that route planning on a mobile screen was impossible and now i see a lot of positive votes

@surfboomerang
it works surprisingly well⌠but in my first steps testing the routeplanning I had to undo sometimes as I was lazy zooming in and out and picked the wrong trail (also because of the trail/road issueâŚ).
I would not want to miss the mobile routeplanning, as it is really really useful on the go. however, when I am at a desktop, routeplanning could be done a lot easier and quicker.
(sorry, dimitrios, to mention this here again) -
Hi
- White theme
- Background sync: really works well
- Route planner
- Sports Customization
- 3rd Party synchronization (Runalyze, Training PeaksâŚ)
- âDay viewâ day steps + calories + sleep ( could be absolute fantastic if there where sleep trend)
- User profile map: see all my workouts all around the world (now it is not working, but I love it)
BR
- White theme
-
- Reliable background sync
- Fast sync compared to MC App and roughly on par with cable sync
Nothing else I really enjoy or like about it, all negatives from here on and this is not the place for it.
SSU + Android beta app just for reference purposes.

Mobile route planner, although it still lacks few important features, but I hope suunto will improve it. Still Iâll probably use it with my a3p (when and if SA supports my watch) only if I have no access to my pc. Taking a wrong path can put you in real danger in mountains in my country. We still have mine fields unfortunately.

It isnât great compared to the desktop version, but a lot better than anything Iâve seen from other mobile apps. For example, route planning on Garmin Connect mobile app is just horrible in comparison - completely unusable.
Still, I donât use SA route planner for my watch because that would disable MC sync. It is quite bad that we have a dilemma - either use some features from from SA or some other features from MC, but not both at the same time.
-
- Fast sync
- Interval lap view
- fast sync to Strava (yes !), Runalyze
- Route planner (love to have it working offline)
- Sport modes customization.
-
- Reliable and fast sync (instant, in the background, all synced before I even get my post-workout coffee!)
- Route planner (like but not love, could be better but nice itâs there), I donât use it a lot, only in the emergency but it does work, itâs in the app, thatâs a good thing.
- Summaries with filtering. I use it a lot and I like I can filter out workouts based on the description (for example, I can check how many times I visited a particular climbing gym this year as itâs a part of description )
- Custom sports modes, easy and quick setup, syncs quickly (although, why not add the ability to name them, what are âOtherâ modes? )
- Upload of GPX routes, With apps like Komoot or AllTrails I can export GPX files and instantly get them on the watch (with Movescount that one thing was a bit of a chore without access to the PC)
- Clear and readable interface, easy to use. I donât have a feeling I fight the app when using it.
- Uploading photos and videos into the recorded sport. I know itâs more a social media thing but I have a different use for it. Thatâs in fact became useful in rock climbing when I wanted to add more details about routes and problems I have climbed. Especially, if I take on the competition walls (would be nice to have a timeline so I could see when exactly I took a photo or shoot video, this would be useful with outdoor climbing so I can pinpoint the crags in space)
To be honest, as the owner of SSSWHRBaro, I donât have connectivity and syncing problems. All works quick and out of the box and the app development gained quite a steady pace, not much to complain assuming waiting patiently for things to roll out. It always could be more (POIs) but I believe things will eventually happen.
-
The summaries with filter are so good!
-
- iOS ability to open a GPX and have it import to routes
- Videos on activities (not just images)
- Adding stats to images when sharing or downloading
- Custom modes to watch from app
- Route trends - for same route shows histogram of pace
-
Comments from SA Android + SSU + Stryd user:
- heatmaps are good for stalking local peopleâs route choices and finding potential running routes when traveling
- route planning helps with estimating workout duration and length when venturing into new places
- workout data summaries and views give me good visibility into what Iâve been doing
- searches and filters do help me find workouts Iâve done in the past when adding future workouts to calendar
- itâs handy to get automatic description for workouts done in interval mode
- quick and reliable sync of workout data from watch to phone
- Sport mode customization is useful once you understand how it works and have used your watch and SA for a while to know what you want to see during workout
- clutter-free and responsive user interface
- shows running power data for workouts - yay
-
In Rank Order for iOS
- Drawing routes and synchronization of routes
- Import gpx and synchronize routes
- Offline syncing of exercises.
- Heatmaps
Really tough to order the above 4 as all are critical! - Watch customization.
- StatsâŚall day, all week, all month, all year by sport
- Ease of forgetting and adding watches (would rather have multiple but at least it is easy).
- Notifications
-
@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos
I love about SA that it is still improved by Suunto and that we can contribute⌠and this forum to give us an easy way to vote for requirements and place feedback
âŚand exchange experience!âŚand the fact that thereâs the chance to have more graphics (progression curves and values on long press?), improved yearly comparisons, icons of sport modes to filter, summary and sort by alti values⌠and better ambit integrationâŚ
-
- Reliable background sync.
- Sync to other services.
- Goal setting.
