Suunto Plus apps

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos for me that’s acceptable. Normally I wouldn’t check my pace during a hill repeat. Though it should be communicated like that to avoid confusion.

I appreciate the difficulty of programming a meaningful “instant” NGP or GAP, and I think Suunto has done a great job at it for the TP running pace S+ app, and similarly for the Climb app. I was just hoping the implementation and results would be similar for the Manual Hill Reps. And of course, I agree that the usability would be limited to longer reps as an intensity guide before HR stabilises. That’s why I would like to be able to see both instant HR and “instant” NGP in the same screen.

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos but couldn’t the watch display a running average of 1m or 30s and ‘sell’ it as instant?

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos have you by chance tried the effort pace at Coros watches, how reactive is that? I myself have not tested it, because I run purely on power on the mountain and no longer use a Coros watch.

@freeheeler Yep, I recall the formula was (exponentially?) smoothed for some reason (I generically said averaged). I could observe in the code of the APP available on movescount and suitable for Ambit Family in the old days…

Hi, I am not sure whether it was already mentioned but in “my location” s+ app this green text is barely visible during sunny conditions. Especially in light theme. I know, under artificial light it is ok but once you use it during sunny day you will imminently understand my point.

I believe some improvements can be done here.

Cheers!

Wish I could see the HR gauge on the top arc when using the fat burner app.

@skifun or on navigation screen

@Likarnik not “or” but as well on navigation screen. You have my vote for it

[DMytro]

@skifun at some point, over a year ago I think, there was a survey regarding improvement of navigation. Afterwards there were rumors in the forum that there might be some improvements coming to navigation, in particular smth like climbpro and not via s+ app.
In a recent survey there was once again a question regarding maps on the watch, offline maps in SA - in other words, another navigation improvements.

I’m really curious when we’ll see it live and what exactly will be implemented.

Tested today the S+ app manual intervals - cycling power with Stryd and some power-based intervals.
Gotta say the screens (intervals and rest) are very good and helpful, the counter at the top is great as well. Overall I liked it.
Couple of things to report.

1. before starting the first interval, there was this screen a bit misleading, as all was working.

2. first time I noticed S+ app info can be added as a data field to the share photo option, this is pretty cool, the only issue I see in this case, once I added one field, the font is pretty small and cannot be changed, it’s hard to read, see below, hopefully this can be fixed in future SA but very nice addition Thx

Spotted following bug in Weather Suunto Plus app.
This at top right is splitted in two lines.
Used on Suunto Vertical Ti.
Don’t remember if it was the case with S9PP

@v-sacre already reported, thanks.

Hit black screen issue on Last KM S+ app for the first time today, this was on my SV, tried removing it and added it back mid run but it didn’t work. Had previously heard from a friend he hit same on S9, so issue seems to be with the app itself. Known issue?

Edit:
First KM worked fine, displaying the rolling km Avg in orange color, then after that value disappeared.

Double checked with my friend, also first km was fine, and in his case then, the screen was all black nothing displayed at all after the first KM.

Hasn’t reproduced to him ever since though.

[isazi]

@herlas known yes, the bug seems to be in the app itself.

[herlas]

@isazi Thx, as per my friend, issue started for him after the watch displayed an app notification, this broke the S+ last km for him (full dark screen)

In my case I’m not sure about the trigger, I’ve used multiple times this S+ on S9PP without issues.

On today’s run, I had two S+ enabled and voice feedback enabled too.

Will keep testing to see if I can find any pattern.

Two new apps today on the store

[Wilson75]

@herlas I tried quickly. My note disappeared few seconds after writing them. Need to try again *Race companion S+

[el2thek]

@herlas Not compatible with my 9B.

[isazi]

@herlas interesting, I thought they would end up in testing before being published to the Store
