@TELE-HO Yes, it was possible. Today is it impossible… A lot of users want this back. But this is by Suunto progress.

@mcindr many users is 8 votes for what?
The multisport works better on new suuntos.
@TELE-HO on ambits you had to create a profile for that! On spartans you don’t need Todo that.
Sorry guys what are we talking about here ?
Are you confused with triathlon or so ?
Just long press the upper button select the next sport and done. Repeat infinite times. No need to even customize.
-
@TELE-HO start your hike, long hold upper button , select cycling done. No need Todo anything more

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos
thanks man, I guess this is what I was missing when I searched this afternoon and tried just before
-
@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Why was this repeat infinite, when only 8 users interested about it?
I had Ambit, multisport was very good made in this watch. All was configurable. Triathlon, Duathlon, what I want. In Suunto web is wrote by S9 baro multisport support, predefined multisport modes. I expected the same quality as before. It was mistake. There is only one predefined mode, not more modes (only triathlon). You are right. I can change sports manually. But did you tried it during race? Did you tried it after swimming 3,8 km in cold water?
And why I not use predefined modes? Why I need to see only few values which are for me Important. For example can you anything read on your watch during open water swimming? No and because this I need on screen only big time and distance, no more. The same for cycling for me are important informations about cadence, power… The same for running.
This is for me problem by all predefined modes. There is so much informations that are not useful for my training. It is necessary switch four times screen to find what I need. But it have solution. I made own modes where I have all Important in one screen. But for multisport is it now by Suunto impossible.

@mcindr
but you can use your customized modes and switch between them -
@TELE-HO I know, this I wrote. But it is not so much comfortable during race. It is better solution use my five years old Ambit2, where I have all configured as I need and I can change sports with one druck.

The pity here is that, in Android, the activities of the multisport are shown in SA as an activity without all the metrics of each type of sport. Is an activity with quite poor information, I think in iOS all the metrics are there. On the other hand when the multisport is uploaded to Strava you will have as activities as sports used and with all the metrics.

@cosmecosta please keep the scope. I don’t want to lock this thread. There is a request for that
-
@mcindr you can customize your modes with only distance for for swimming switch between them during multisport switch. It’s actually quite faster and more robust.
While you might have an opinion this request (which we don’t support watch requests here ) has 8 votes only.
Others have hundreds.
The multisoort is an improvement over the old ones however that does not mean that is is for you.
That doesn’t mean you get less quality. It’s a different aspect.
And no there is not linear added update. The spartans and after is anew system. Not at all the same.
That is why it’s not called ambit 3 or 4
-
I think multisport is quite easy to use in Spartans and S watches. I used it quite a lot during Covid lock down time and I liked how it was implemented. If I recall well when you change between sports you will find first the last sports used as when you choose an activity.
-
@cosmecosta correct. If you have a race coming you can with 3 button clicks switch over (I think 3 maybe 4 max). You can also just on the fly without the need of customization just use the multisport feature. With ambits you could not if I recall corrct. You had to configure it and spend quite some time. Now you only need to configure the sport modes if that is needed.
-
@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos OK, thank you for your informations. I’ll give chance this manually changing again and try it during next race. I hope I will find any solution for measuring transitions time with this. It was this details and simplycity which made Suunto the top for me long time. This missing me today.
-
@mcindr the transitions are missing. That is a bad thing. And triathlon customization is only via mc.
That yes. Is a request. But perhaps the best is to be specific about it. Just for example asking for multisport customization without just saying why and what is missing can be hidden under the table if people don’t see that.
I know understand what you mean. Sorry for being so persistent. I thought it was just about the sport modes.
-
@mcindr actually I am a moron. That was the initial request. Apologies. Let me move this back.

Should be this one … vote , vote, vote !!

I’ve just voted for this; its something I use a couple of times a (non-pandemic!) year - its not a ‘deal breaker’, but it is pretty important to me. To be honest though I’ve largely given up upvoting features on here since it very much feels like Suunto aren’t listening.
We have web version of Suunto App and structured workouts which are the two most upvoted features and have been rejected, whereas ‘sprint mode’ (which some people do find useful) appears to have come from nowhere.
-
@amasidlover we express interest in things, but eventually is Suunto that decides. Also, I assume the forum is only one of the inputs for Suunto, as there are much more Suunto users than users in this forum (e.g. the data that showed only 0.2% of all users used POIs in MC).
-
@mcindr I don’t understand.
You have customzied your sport modes so you have the minimal information you like.
Now you can easily switch over from one mode to the other with a ling button press.
It is much more flexible to use with your settings!Now if you just liked it the way it was, then with new watch models you have to learn the new way to do it.
