    @Jamie-BG oh Gosh, how blind I am. I was wondering if I should write it here, because it must be somewhere in settings but I didn’t see it 😁 Thank you !

        @Fly-Riviera Adding: Heart Rate visual at Default Sphere. (damm, that does even an Amazfit Bip Lite, less than 50$!!!)

          Sorry - you have really lost me? What does heart rate visual at default sphere mean - care to explain?

          I know that the S7 does active HR zones on main tracking screen. You can also use the HR tile to take a HR reading at any time / and or go into google fit to get a reading at any time. You can also set Google fit to take 24/7HR reading which can then be viewed in tile or google fit.

            @Jamie-BG please, let me check! It’s our new sportwatch! 🙂 Is there a livetrack / emergency feature at Suunto 7/app?

              I would like to see the watch being able to connect to turbo trainers. Or an app to connect to them.

                I would like to see the ability to chose and add apps to the watch through the Google play store on the phone rather than on the watch. This will save battery life on the watch.

                  @meyton89 this would be a step back to Android Wear 1.0 and has nothing to do with Suunto.

                  Meanwhile WearOS apps cannot be installed on the phone. The only way is to install these apps via the PlayStore on the watch.

                  And usually this will happen at home with a wireless connection and the possibility to use the charger.

                    @Fly-Riviera no and the ones on the play store are very manual too

                        @Xiaiomi-Killmister hi. I am also greek here.

                        The language is part of Google operating system. It’s not a suunto only feature. Since the wearos is not supporting greek this is logical.

                        While we all would like to use our mother language, still this is not a reason to have this attitude , especially when your written skills in english are so good.

                        There will be updates for your watch nevertheless, just not the language yet.

                          I know that your from Greece but what do you mean “still this is not a reason to have this attitude”…i didn’t know it was a Google thing…i just remember this statement “Σύντομα το Ελληνικό μενού στα SUUNTO!!! #suuntogreece #shopandtrade” on 6/11 and i thought at last we can see a Greek menu on our watch…i understand that there’s no solution all is to Google and because the watch is not covering me(not only language thing) i have to go to another watch that supports VO2max better battery and my language.

                            The above I took it as sarcastic intention to undermine the effort to bring the Greek language to suunto watches that I also have worked on.

                            I might have been wrong. My excuses.

                            Good luck with your next watch and have a great weekend.

                              Sorry but, why you bought the watch knowing all this already?

                                It was my first smartwatch…it was new (i bought it almost a month after it came out) it was cheap and looked nice…i had to choose between Suunto and Garmin…as a new watch i thought it will have all the “goodies” that i had in my simply Honor band…i didn’t have any idea that some things was missing,i new about the language but as a new watch i thought that one day Suunto would support it…now that i know that its a"Google thing" with the little support of Wear Os,no…i have nothing to wait .so my answer to you is that i didn’t “know all this already”
                                Great weekend to you Dimitrios Kanellopoulos.

                                  @Xiaiomi-Killmister well I’m sorry then. I’m sure you’ll avoid doing the mistake of buying the wrong device for you again.

                                      To be able to customise the sports modes on the phone. The built in ones. The watch has interval trg sessions and I would like to be able to set it to time or distance intervals and to set the time or distance of the intervals. Yes I could probably get a third party app to do this. But the sports mode is there already

                                        @meyton89 ability to customise the built in tracking activities is already there. You are referring to adding in additional tracking features for specific activities.
                                        There is loads that can be done to suunto app - would love to see strength training show something similar to what google fit had prior to last update i.e. autodetect activity and reps. Better reporting and analytics around strength training, as no data is shown in suunto app for exercise, set and rep detail - have to pull it in and show manually in comments / description.

                                          @Jamie-BG You can’t customise the built in activities, you can only create new ones. The built in interval training is unique in that it has no auto-laps. Any custom activities you add will have auto laps, which is a shame if you want to create a custom interval profile.

                                          There is also no way to set intervals based on time or distance, so @meyton89 's request would be a very welcome addition in my opinion.
                                          As would strength training auto detection.
