Software update 2.18.18 Sept 28 2021

[MiniForklift]

@tomahawk5000 I updated via SuuntoLink this morning - I’ve got an S9B

[Dušan Ković]

One thing that would be great to have is media controls checkbox per sport mode or to have a checkbox in custom battery settings. I only listen music while I’m in gym, not while running or hiking. And it would be great to choose when to have music controls enabled. Currently we have to dig through menus on the watch to find that checkbox.

[Likarnik]

@stefan-kersting +1 for that. Or maybe enable more S+ per activity

[Bogdan1921]

I like the new watchfaces and also the new media function.
Big up Suunto, this update was a nice surprise

[guenthi]

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos Is there more detailed information what the updated “Improved Altitude readings” feature means?

[Chronbu]

@isazi hi, nothing has changed this morning.
How can I force the update on my S9P ?

Thank you.

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@chronbu if the app says that the update is transfered then just reboot the watch with 15s upper button and try again from the watch menu

[Chronbu]

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos
I already tried it, and also already tried to reset the watch, and still have the issue

[surfboomerang]

@chronbu What do you get if you open Suunto App, click on the watch icon, About Device in the menu and then “Watch updates”?

It told me that the update had been downloaded and further actions had to be taken from the watch.

[Chronbu]

@surfboomerang yep, I have the same message.

Actually, I had this message, then I have done the update from the watch (that took about 10 minutes), but after the update process, the watch was still in version 2.16.26.

So I tried restarting the watch, resetting the watch, and even resinstalled the official version of the android application (I was in beta).
But I still have the problem.

Does anybody (as me) have double replays on Viber app?

Yes, just tested.

[surfboomerang]

@chronbu And there were no errors on the watch during the update process?
Suunto App also reports software version 2.16.26 for the watch?

[Chronbu]

@surfboomerang There was no error, and Suunto App says the watch is in the 2.16 version.
I hope the Suunto App can force to download again the package, and push it to the watch.

I didn’t like the notifications starting from the middle of the screen. Previously, I only had to raise my arm to read the notification. Now I have to scroll down. does not fit on the screen.

[Mff73]

@chronbu
i have no more S9P to test, but maybe uninstall SA and reinstall it and begin process from very scratch)

[Chronbu]

@mff73 I already tried it, nothing works

[isazi]

@djordje-s nope, Apple does not allow that.

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

For the s9P users that cannot update:

• Watch serial number
• Picture of the software update menu being gray and what happens if you press it !

There is one reply only if I do not do anything after reply once I reply and go back then it’s double

[Efejota]

Will the update preserve the customized sports in Suunto App or they must be recreated? Just to make sure that I have a copy of my configuration before updating.
