Suunto Beta Release for Suunto 9 Peak Pro, Suunto 9 Peak, Suunto 9 Baro, Suunto 9 and Suunto 5 Peak

@cosme-costa I just found that too, it’s annoying not being able to have raise to wake for exercise. You can turn it off completely if you want to, go to settings-general- backlight- raise to wake. That turns it off in exercise too.

[DMytro]

@Jonah15 but tbh, since RTW was made usable, a year ago or so, I loved to use it in late evening workouts, which don’t yet warrant constant backlight, but definitely benefit from RTW. Real pitty that I have to use it in daily mode too.

[Jonah15]

@DMytro I’m the same I don’t want it on all the time, just when I exercise, for the dark mornings.

[mlakis]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos, any changes regarding GPS signal/track in swimming?

[EzioAuditore]

@Jonah15 Agreed. An option: From Sunset To Sunrise would be much appreciated

[suzzlo]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos is there any time frame? I mean… I installed yesterday the beta FW, and I have only tested in one easy activity…

[DMytro]

@suzzlo until 25.06 I thought

The color of the ressource circle is now missing on the suunto 9!

[A Former User]

Didn’t install the beta (already submit bugs for a living), but does anybody know if this is now working? Having to choose it every time is annoying.

Note: Battery mode selection is memorized in the watch. The last battery mode you selected with a specific sport mode will be suggested to you the next time you launch that same sport mode.> The color of the ressource circle is now missing on the suunto 9!

Do I see continuous HR tracking on the 9PP? I likes!

[Tomas5]

S5 is out of support?

[A Former User]

@Ilya-Sul yep, nice addition, but did you notice any battery life impact? I have lost 20% during 1 day and 8 hours with 1h30m of activity only.

Has it been made optional (1s vs 10m) somewhere in the menus?

[Andi Buzer]

I really appreciate how smooth to beta update process was. Now it’s time to test the firmware.

[Łukasz Szmigiel]

@Dan-Cantir all good here, feels even better I’d say. Yesterday’s evening + night took 2% of battery.

Who is the weather provider for Suunto?

I think I’ve read here it is Openweathermap.

[Frederick Rochette]

Can anyone explain the differences seen on an S9P between the latest official version and this beta?

[DMytro]

@Frederick-Rochette the release notes are in the first post, if you happened to miss them.
I’m on Suunto 9 (non-peak), but additions seem to be the same, so I can share my experience:
Raise to wake is now either both in daily mode and exercise, or in neither. This is not very useful for me.
Contrast and fonts may appear to be slightly better, but this could also very well be due to me knowing that contrast should have been improved haha. I tried comparing with another S9B, but could barely spot a difference.
Strava segments are nice for strava users, but I don’t have a premium account, so couldn’t test.

Pretty much it, my watch wasn’t crashing before and it isn’t now. Overall performance is as before also.

Hi Is there a chance that the option to illuminate the dial when raising your hand during training will return? I miss this.
