Future S9 firmware wishlist summary

@ADHDMonkey yes, the chipset only supports GPS+X, newer chipsets support different configurations, such as using all GNSS systems at the same time.

Still hoping for a simple flash light triggered by a long press of one of the hard buttons. Turn the face all white, brightness 100%

Simple but nice idea!

I would like for the VO2Max algorithm to take into account the height difference or other environmental changes. For example I ocationally visit my grandparents village +1200m height from the place I live and the first days to week or more my VO2max drops a couple of points and fluctuates a lot until it stabilizes.

@Hristijan-Petreski I work at 1700m and over or at 3000m almost every weekend if I am home. My VO2Max is reported about 5-8 ml/kg/min lower on the watch than on a test. Not terribly bad.

I think this was mentioned (and discussed in the past), but I would like to see an option to display all of the available parameters/values that the watch knows about (sunset/sunrise, altitude, temperature, HR, number of steps, etc.). All of them are available on some of the screens, but I don’t think any watch faces includes all of them (and rightly so).
I would make it accessible from the Settings or Shortcuts menu.

It’s probably been asked for at some point but it would be great if the amount of screens you can add and configure for an activity would be higher. I also have a Garmin Enduro and that doesn’t have a maximum number of screens, you can setup as few or as many as you want; I’d really like to have the option of having more than only 2 or 3 available

@MiniForklift going this way - I’d like to be able to disable the vertical navigation as I very rarely use it and have an option to disable an S+ screen. This sounds weird but when using certain S+ apps like ie Burner I see no need to have the data displayed during the run. I’d rather have less screens to cycle as there’s no way to cycle back, only forward.

MiniForklift

I use the Dual time function as I travel quite a bit, so I’ll often alternate between a few different time zones/countries

Any possibility of having the city that it’s set to displayed rather than the ‘Dual time’ that’s currently shown? Seems like only a small change but it would be much more helpful

@MiniForklift
The “old” Spartan firmware shows the zone.

I’m using it too since always but also as digits representation of the current time

MdzOtt

@MiniForklift On S9B it shows a “globe” as indication of the “world time”. The city idea went away a few firmware updates ago and it was replaced by the UTC +/- offset. I liked the “city” idea better, because it kept track of various daylight changes in different zones. Now you have to know when the time changes in the other time zone and adjust it manually.

So I compare new Suunto Vertical watch vs Suunto 9 Baro and SVertical has option “Touch screen lock” (see pic) and it has also only 3 buttons. Then I would like to really kindly ask for option “Touch screen lock” in time mode please

@vio112 I think @freeheeler will appreciate that in a way or another if I am not mistaken

isazi

This must be a mistake, the Vertical does not have a lock button outside of activity.

@fluca
I wanted to say the same as @isazi
I have seen this sheet before but don’t know the source.
there’s nothing like a lock in watch mode, and it is not necessary IMO.
