Nope: this thread specifies “Firmware”, not MC/SA. My wish is the ability to create POIs, waypoints and, possibly, routes on the watch alone. The A3P could do the first by coordinate entry. I gather the Fenix can do all of them (the first by distance and bearing from current location). If the S9 is still like the Spartan, the only POI it can create is the spot on which you’re standing.

@patterbt said in Future S9 firmware wishlist summary:
creating a custom battery
thanks for that hint.
that works when buttons are unlocked. my idea is having the buttons locked to avoid unwanted ending, pause or lap but having touch screen unlocked to flip screens… -
@TELE-HO yes, just one more:
- the option to add asymmetric fields in intervals by distance / time in one same workout and one beep 3 seconds before interval start/stop.
No need anything else. Waypoint/POI soon we will have.
-
@Luís-Pinto Nope. SA isn’t firmware.

Yes: “Waypoint/POI soon we will have.” But only via SA. Again, this is a wishlist for the watch firmware, not the app software.
-
@Fenr1r i know. Asymmetric fields for interval for watch firmware, not SA.
-
I think you two are both right, because in order to get structured intervals working, we would need a FW and SA upgrade. SA for the easier setting up part of the intervals and watch FW for the receiving and execution part.
-
@fejker Sure.
-
@Luís-Pinto So I’m missing something: why request intervals in firmware while dismissing navigation with “No need anything else. Waypoint/POI soon we will have.”?
-
@fejker I gave up to SI in SA. Simple adding asymmetric values in interval option would be a solution. Simple. Just adding more variables and not just constants. Forget warm-up/cool down. It would be sufficient to program 1X500m/500m+3X750m/750m+3X3min/3min
-
@Luís-Pinto Yes of course, you can do the warmup+cooldown outside the structured interval as you can do it now with simple intervals. With the current solution it looks like some intern got a task of programming the interval part of the watch and never finished it.
-
@fejker Yes, is incomplete. Just add variables. Nothing more. And everybody would be happy. Simple as that. As Suunto likes.
-
@Luís-Pinto I gave up also on SI. To handle complex intervals I am setting it up on my phone and have it on the arm so that I hear tone signals. Every time I press manual lap and here they are…structured intervals in my Suunto
But interval beeps in watch firmware would be really helpful -
For back light during activity…even just creating a smaller “the screen is locked” icon would work.
You could lock the watch, press any of the buttons, watch would 1) light up and 2) show you very discreetly that the screen is locked.
The lack of back light functionality (gesture driven or otherwise) is kind of crazy for a watch with only three buttons…
-
1 or 2 new watch faces would be great. Also maybe ability to set intervals more specific intervals down to the seconds.
-
Backlight during activity my only “issue” currently, I know I can long-press middle and release early to activate it but be nice to maybe use the short-press bottom button for this as I very rarely drop into options during an activity (I do though fairly often before I start it though) and maybe leave long-press bottom button for that? That’s only me though, would depend on how most people use it! Maybe even auto-light up on wrist turn?
And of course, SI. SI, SI, SI
One day? -
@andrewjknox Have the same gripes…full suport from my side
-
@andrewjknox I use short press to activate backlight during activity, upper or lower button… because I always lock the watch during the workout…
-
About SI only adding pyramids would solve a lot of problems.
