Future S9 firmware wishlist summary

@AdamMada said in Future S9 firmware wishlist summary:

For complete happiness I miss the compass in running mode. The screen with the return trail does not contain the direction in which I run, as on the compass

hmm, what is wrong with breadcrumb?

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@AdamMada there is the compass there. The little red triangle

[AdamMada]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos
And in this he is a prolem. A small triangle.
I have no specific direction in degrees.
After 20 km I can barely see this triangle.
An additional dial with a compass would solve the problem.

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@AdamMada why not then find back ? It adds that screen no?

[AdamMada]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos
Suunto app-> sport mode configuration-> running.
No shield screen compass.

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@AdamMada if you need it for find back you can enable find back and that will be added as a screen

I was hoping to spend some time with the update …

[Jonathan Newby]

Come on Suunto let’s cheer everyone up and have an update.

[isazi]

@Jonathan-Newby now that we cannot get out and test it?

[tomahawk5000]

@isazi I cannot agree. Except Italy as far as I know in Europe we can go outside under one condition stay away from other people - am I right or not?

In Spain you can not go out. People are getting nice fines if they are caught avoiding restrictions.

[isazi]

@tomahawk5000 in some countries (mine included) we can, but we shouldn’t. I am still going out to run/hike, but it’s becoming ever more difficult because people are not making any effort to keep social distancing, and my runs are mostly avoiding people more than running.

[ink357]

In France government said we could. But close to the house. Yesterday a young woman died hiking near my town… that’s sad and it need some cops and rescue team to find her body… i think they had another things to do. If people are not more responsible, nobody could get out soon

[Jonathan Newby]

In England we can go wherever at the moment but this wont last for long. I can test if suunto are after people.

[Likarnik]

Well, I’m used to run at 4:30am, so avoiding people is not an issue

[Mff73]

Avoiding people is one point of view, but doing ANY outside activity can makes one need some rescue, and these rescue efforts will not be focused on Virus actions.
I think it is a point not that well known/understand.

That said, i understand it, and go outside as usual as i never see anyone where i live Just doing my stuff knowing not to be injured too much to avoid any rescue claims

[Fenr1r]

@Mff73 Proving your points.

[freeheeler]

@Mff73
so true… I only do activities atm where the risk of injury is very low.

[sartoric]

The main issue is that tons of people that usually never go hiking are doing it because “I need to flee from crowded towns” … So now there are crowded hills

That is really stupid. Understandable, in some way, but stupid.
As I said, The Italian alpine club had to close all the huts and main paths, to avoid it.

[freeheeler]

@sartoric
I had a similar thought recently when I tried to find my 2m distance way thru a crowd of people on a shared cycling and walking path between villages: now even people go outside that normally are glued to their playstations…
