Suunto 7 - Google fit integration must be improved

Egika · 10 Apr 2020, 12:02

@pilleus ok - thanks.
It took some says to get the account from Strava to Fit synced with 1100 activities…
Now I still don’t get tracks in Fit… The sync log shows the most recent activity as synchronized.
But in the fit app there seems just to be one point…

Even in Google Fit on the S7 the activity will be updated after the sync via Strava. Map and graphs of altitude and speed are missing. The complete data will be displayed in Fit on the smartphone.

Hi Pilleus,

Greetz from Regensburg

I have set it up like you suggested, and Strava syncs everything to Google Fit - everything, except the map.
I think I have set up everything the right way, checked and re-checked everything, but the map won’t sync.
Am I missing something? Any suggestions?

Many thanks in advance!

Markus

Strava syncs everything to Google Fit - everything, except the map.

Therefore I use SyncMyTracks to have all data in Fit (altitude, heart rate, map, speed, distance, calories).

MO92119 · 12 Apr 2020, 18:27

@pilleus Yes, I read about SyncMyTracks. However, to use it I have to enter my passwords (especially Google) in the app, and I’m not gonna do that…

So there’s no way to import the maps to Google Fit by only using Strava, correct? It only works via SyncMyTracks?

No. It’s an allowed connection as it is with the Suunto wear or any other app or watch face. The apps are listed in Google Fit and can be removed.

@pilleus can you check my screenshot above? No map is synced for me while Syncmytracks in the logs tells me it synced fun from Strava to Fit…

You are right! You must enter username and password for Strava, so I assumed it’s the same for Google.
I will test it then, thank you very much!!

@Egika strange. I have no problems, no delay to show the map in Fit.

Did you check the sync log for errors?

You can try the export & import function of SyncMyTracks to force the resync of the last activity listed in Strava.

Egika · 13 Apr 2020, 04:22

@pilleus log looks totally fine for me.
It syncs nicely. Just the Fit app shows no map. The activity gets updated with some position data though, as you can see in the screenshot above…

One more idea. Check out if automatic activity tracking is enabled or not in Google Fit. Change the setting to see what happens with the map.

Do the same with location services in Google Fit. I disabled location services completely.

Thanks for the idea. Are you talking about the watch or app? I mainly have it on iPhone - can’t see this setting there…

@Egika okay, I have Android. The settings are in the Fit app on the phone in your profile - settings. May be IOS is different.

Hello guys. I am a new suunto 7 user. Could someone explain to me, is it possible to link external sensor (hr chest strap from suunto or polar) to google fit on suunto 7? And if yes does it work properly?

Brad_Olwin · 14 Jul 2020, 23:30

@comicinjo This is not possible unless you use a 3rd party app.
