      @freeheeler said in Future S9 firmware wishlist summary:

      FW update by bluetooth and SA
      blood oxygen saturation (in case Valencell is ready for this?)

      these 2 wishes have been implemented in S9P. Moderators, I think we can close this thread. Future wishes can be suggested for S9P and if hardware allows, it might eventually come to S9B, too ✊

        @freeheeler those were not even just firmware updates, but hardware (faster Bluetooth and new HR sensor).

          And I believe the S9 is going to get a new firmware at some point 🙂

                  yep, that’s what I wanted to point out.
                  Features/Firmware have been updated and cool stuff has been implemented for the peak and came to the baro to some extend, too.
                  Now that we know that peak and baro share the same basis, we can wish for features/firmware on the peak and it will come to the baro, too, if hardware allows.
                  I highly doubt a lock function in watch mode will ever be created 😂

                      @freeheeler you know what would be cool to have in a new hardware? A pressure sensitive bezzel. Similar to what pixels and HTCs used to have. It may be assigned one or two extra functions without needing to obscure the watch design by additional buttons. And it’s probably gloves friendly as well.
                      Never need a lock button if you don’t have any XD

                        gloves cause me most of the unwanted button presses… in 2100 no more gloves will be necessary in central europe 😂 🙊 😉

                          The only unwanted button press I’ve ever had was during my muddy ultra a few weeks back, slipped over and completely hit the ground. Ran a few hundred metres before I realised the pause button had been hit and I resumed the activity. Disaster luckily averted!

                            For me it can be the gloves but also other reasons such as using poles and my wrist can hit a button

                              this is both during activity recording, as I understand… we’ve got a lock function for that… it would be crazy if we hadn’t 😱 😂
                              I couldn’t do mountain biking, gym workout, skitouring, skiing etc without it 😉
                              my everlasting wish is for a lock function during every day watch mode. I managed to go to activity start screens and switch on do not disturb etc… luckily most of the unwanted presses go towards HR and step screens… still annoying but not “critical”.
                              I simply don’t understand why there’s no option to lock the watch 🤷

                                @freeheeler locking bottom campaign… even with the bottoms of the peak you want it. I think is a good idea, I don’t need it, mostly because here is almost summer/spring all the year and I never had an issue, even wearing the s9b with large bottoms (I love that bottoms). Who knows…

                                  @freeheeler agreed. I like how garmin does it - can set it to come on automatically, and or you can use hotkey to unlock/lock.

                                    @freeheeler Sorry, I thought you were talking during an activity.

                                    For me it’s worse when not in activity. Once I put it in a pocket of my backpack and because we can’t lock the screen, i guess some buttons got pushed and performed a soft reset !!!

                                      Last week I had the possiblity for en extended off-grid test off the S9B and SA. I hiked 70 km in the north norwegian wildernes and partly in Laponia, north Sweden. So i tried out several functions.

                                      Concerning the firmware I have the following suggestion:

                                      When using the trackback function it would be nice to have the same function as you have it in the ordinary navigation mode. That means showing the track back as u blue line and if you are off track(back) get a warning that you leave the track. Especially up here in the north there are often no pathes/trails and even on a trackback you can fast loose your “way”. This improvement of the trackback function would help very much 🙂

                                      I planned the route in SA and when navigating you get a diagram that shows ascend and descend for the whole route. Information about how many kilometers left to the finish would be nice.

                                        @dmytro pressure sensitive bezel without a good lock is useless. At least for sports that you might do wearing anything with long sleeves.

                                          A couple of suggestions:

                                          • The interval screen could have the zone ring, like GhostRunner?

                                          • S + CLIMB, could recognize the type of exercise? In other words, do not indicate minutes / km if you exercise by bicycle.
