      it shouldn’t be that hard

      I thought the same for a lock function in watch mode 🙊 😉

        does someone ask for an elevation percentage when you are road cycling? Like for example, seeing 12% on one of the inputs that you have on the watch faces during the training.

          did you try Suunto Plus “climb - hill training”? you’ve got the grade and other interesting values displayed in an additional screen

            At first, I downgraded to fw 2.16.26 because of battery bug presented in 2.18.20 on my S9BT
            In fw 2.16.26 it’s on my 2nd day wit daily hr and sleep tracking, bluetooth connect only 2-3x a day likely after a run or after gym workout, and now is 70% after 40 hrs.

            I just think the battery can be extended for daytime usage, by only using Hr on during sleep window time (I set it in sleep tracking), because when sleeping, dnd, hr on, it only uses 2-3% battery for sleeping 7-8 hours a day (no bluetooth) but in daytime, hr on uses about 8-10% with no training.
            Btw I don’t regret anything for jumping to Suunto again (previously S5) after 3 months with Fenix 6.

              @ierisch you will not have to wait long (*) for the new firmware with the fixed battery life in daily mode.

              (*) assuming nothing happens with testing.

                    @ierisch given the popularity that this idea seems to have, plus considering that I would also personally like this as I find the sleep metrics more interesting than the all day metrics, I submitted this idea to Suunto already. This does not mean it will ever be implemented, I have no idea and no control, but at least they know now.

                      @isazi This is the implementation that you can find in all POLAR watches since 2 year or so. Polar does not check the body resource all day long but only at nigh, they call it “nightly recharge”. Is the only thing I look at to gauge my recovery status.
                      The benefit is that your battery life is much better whit this option enabled.
                      I guess that would be beneficial for S9 S9P as well.

                      In short when you toggle this options, the HR switch on at your programmed bed time and off at you programmed wake up time (POLAR has this two parameters too)
                      Thumb up for the requester!

                            I was really pleased to see something very similar to this when I used ‘Snap To Route’ on a hilly run earlier this week. Would be good if we were able to customise or add to the data that we see on that screen?

                            For example, it shows altitude at the top but I’d find my total elevation gain more useful. Having the option to add in a couple of other metrics such as gradient, battery percentage and/or time of day would make it an even better screen IMO

                            Wow, this would be very nice…I’d love such a display where you see the ascent / descent meter you have made and which you have to do…

                                @regger This is already there, when you load a track there is a new screen with the altitude profile that gives you your position in the profile, the ascent done and the remaining one or the actual altitude and the remaining ascent, I do not remember which ones.

                                I would love to have an improvement of this screen with the degree and also the descent.

                                  and it would be nice to have the correct number of left ascent. I notice that it’s overshooting most of the time in my case

                                    @regger The best feature that could be implemented in SuuntoPlus is an alternative of ClimbPro from Garmin watches. Hope to see it in the next firmware 😉

                                      @freeheeler meaning the routes created in SA? That is acknowledged and will be fixed.

                                        I noticed that on a hill run last week. I planned the route in SA and it calculated just over 800m of elevation; in fact after running the route the total elevation was only a little over 600m. Can’t believe the vert was off by 25%! I remember running down the final decent and it was still showing over a hundred metres of ascent left when there was in fact none. On the plus side it made for a slightly easier run than I was expecting 😆

                                        The hill screen was excellent, great to know exactly where you are on the climbs and what you have left to cover. I definitely think the top number should be the total elevation that you have climbed - that’s a much more meaningful metric to have to hand than your current altitude

                                          absolutely!
                                          it would be almost like a sandglass but the other way around. while the lower number is getting less, the upper number should gain accordingly

                                            @chronbu, well I’d like to argue here. The climb pro is not accurate for long distances like 50k and more. So in case, Suunto will do it, pls do it properly. And btw. the same applies for pace pro for long distances in trail running.
