      @freeheeler nobody changes his mind for the lack of multiple alarms but actually there is no reason not to introduce such possibility via firmware…

      there are greater omissions which are leaving Suunto behind competition (sleep editing, HRV measurements, inaccuracy at detecting breaststroke style, etc.).
      Coros, in the same price range, is more competitive and ensures a long term and responsive support, via continuous firmware, to its customers…that’s why I use both Suunto and coros…

        I agree on the multiple alarms thing. I actually use this on other watches quite often. Aside from a weekday wake-up alarm, I have a couple of other weekday alarms to remind me to do other things. The workaround with Suunto will be to use my phone for this. It was nice to have it on my watch directly though.

          Well this thread is a good occasion I guess for me to test the alarm with the vertical.
          So I have set it for tomorrow morning…I wish there was an icon/indication on the watchface telling me an alarm is on ! 🙄

            FWIW I would like the option of an hourly beep/chime, have asked for this back in the early days of the S9B but it never came and probably never will. No biggie. Multiple alarms would be nice but not a dealbreaker - set one on your watch and one on your phone. Solved 👍

            To say it’s ‘unacceptable’ is pretty funny, especially as it’s something so minor. I can’t believe people would actually refuse to buy a watch because of something like this… that’s like the true definition of stubborn right there 🤣

              @freeheeler I use the (vibration only) alarm on my S9P to get up in the morning w/o waking up anybody, something I couldn‘t use my phone for. And it would just be convenient to be able to keep the weekdays alarm as is and then use a different one for weekends for example. But I agree this is not the feature that would make me switch watch models or brands…

                I will love to have multiple alarms, and also the possibility to change the snooze period, but I’m not going to sell my watch for lacking those features.
                I think, these kind of minor issues, are not deal breakers, but are daily frictions that after long time can make you not so happy

                Happy weekend!!!

                  Garmin has had this feature, multiple alarms for years. Surprise to find out a new watch in 2026 from Suunto doesn’t have this basic functionality. If the answer is ‘set a phone alarm’ that defeats the purpose of not carry a phone when running. This should seriously be considered. I’ll keep my Garmin Delta and encourage my better half to return or sell if this feature does not become available soon. What a shame.

                    @Dante-Mclalla Strange. Race allows multiple alarms. I have 3 everyday and a couple only on week days… Can it be that Vertical has less options than race?

                      @claudiotereso this has been implemented in 2023 for both Vertical and Race. This thread is very old, and predates that feature 🙂
