Suunto 9 Peak

Dimitrios Kanellopoulos

@miha1234 because having a lot of screens during an interval session also does not make a lot of sense. Especially navigation.

Turn off the intervals (or when you finish the session) and navigation will come back afaik

Hi all.
Can anyone tell me how well the Suunto 9 Peak works with Android smartphones, mainly getting notifications, and from what apps does it get notifications?
Aside from calls and sms, i would need email also.
Thanks in advance.

@ricardo-marinheira I get notifications from Gmail. Have not tried other email apps.

herlas

notification wise same experience as with S9B, basically SA Android has a white list filter for notifications, and once you get from app you don’t want, you turn it off for that app in SA settings

Ricardo Marinheira

@herlas Any chance of knowing what apps are possible to include in that white list?
I use a Samsung smartphone, so aside from gmail, samgung mail and outlook for android would be crucial.

herlas

@ricardo-marinheira I also have outlook for android besides google mail and it’s there. Thing is, as I mentioned, it’s a white list, meaning, any app on your phone that sends out a notification will be allowed to do so AFAIK, unless you go into the settings and manually stop it from being able to.

Hope this helps

but outlook was known to not trigger notification on Suunto watch , even if in the SA white list (at least it was reported like this, maybe fixed now).

@mff73 Still confirmed . Outlook notifications are not working.

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos hmm, i am also Garmin user and when running/cycling where i do not know the road this works great for me.

I have navigation as main screen and interval is just show for few second to know what you have to do and then it switches back to navigation.

I was really expect more from Suunto. For trainning point of you it lacks basically all the features that are needed

Advance intervals,…

Can this be expected in future?

Just a wild idea…Suunto should start an exchange program
Return your “old” S9 and receive the new version with a discount.

This is what holds me back from getting new models as soon as they come out. I genuinely feel a waste of materials/money/etc by leaving my old one sat in the drawer. I think suunto would be shocked at how many of us would hand over older models that they could pick components from and recycle–then turn around and we all buy new.

@miha1234 you may want to search the forum on ‘structured intervals’ topic. But the bottom line was, at the time of last discussion at least, that structured intervals is not something suunto is working towards in the near future.
But it was rumoured for training plans from TP to come to our watches later this year. If this holds true and how exactly it will be implemented remains to be seen of course.

I went trough whole TP pro HM 80/20 training, there was no workout that I could not do (with exeption of one that required 40s intervals) provided that you have some sort of short term memory.

I am so excited. There must be a new firmware update just around the corner? At least I very much hope so. Next week maybe, just before World Vertical Week?

isazi

@patrick-löffler oh, the new ascent algorithm before vertical week you say?

Patrick Löffler

@isazi Now that you mention it would make an awful lot of sense. What else could be in it? Resources fix, open water swim improvements…?

DMytro

@patrick-löffler for the peak I would say ows, elevation, hr fixes/enchancements.
I also think we might be getting an improved map screen and maybe an s+ feature.

Patrick Löffler

@dmytro Oh yeah! That would be amazing! Can’t wait to get my hands on that update! What do you think on timing? Is next week a good guess?

DMytro

@patrick-löffler I think @isazi hinted at it already:) Seems plausible to me and best timing ever - I’m going on a mountaineering trip if all goes well.

isazi

I know nothing about dates, the only thing I can talk about is the ascent algorithm because it has already been talked about in this forum

Patrick Löffler

@isazi Thanks anyway. I thought I tried super subtle and smooth as 007 to get some information. Didn’t work! Damn.
