@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.

Similar experience on my end on the 9PP. I lost around 20% over 14 hours (7 PM to 9 AM):

• Only recorded one 30 minute walk during this time, no S+ used.
• I have all widgets active except NOTIFICATION and ACTIVITY
• RTW is on, but sleep DND would have been active overnight
• 24/7 HR is on
• Sleep tracking is on with SpO2
• 1 alarm in the morning

@isazi I agree. The problems are somewhere else:

1. we have lost the “exercise only” option for raise to wake
2. Low backlight is now unnecessarily bright

@Umer-Javed
After any FW update, battery calibration may be necessary for the gauge to be reliable. Wait a full discharge/recharge first I would say.

I’m S9P user, and I have updated, just because I love to test new things.
Unfortunately I haven’t find anything new except wake on raise that is working fine for me and small UI changes (font?, darker colors, more contrast…) I was expecting something more, like guide alerts…

Anyway, no problem with the beta

@isazi do you know which bugs are corrected in the beta FW?

Thanks! I’ll recalibrate and try again. I’m planning on using it well for a few more days before I fill the survey.

Apparently this update has decalibrated my battery a little. When I started activity, it said I have 6h worth of charge, after 20m I finished. Next time I looked at my watch, within 10m, it showed empty battery screen.
I could be wrong about battery estimate tho, so if it’s the only occurrence, you may as well ignore my comment.

@Thierry-Forget the same happened to me. Is there a way to reconnect to Strava?

[MdzOtt]

The good: The FW update worked without a flaw.
The not so good: i tried to see how the Strava segments would work. But since the update, I don’t have any Guides on the watch, nor I have any “Sport apps”. The SA claims that the sport apps are installed, but the watch says “None”. i stared three segments in Strava, one of them initially showed up in Guides, but even if i Pinned it, it did not synch to the watch (and SA said “not in the watch”). The guide on how to enable Strava segments suggests to unlink the Strava and link it back. Unlinking works, but linking it back does not (when i press the “Authorise” button, another tab is open with “Connect to Strava” button).
Are there any ideas on how to sort this out?

Edit on Sport Apps - they did sync to the watch, eventually. Btw. selecting the Sport App in the watch is not obvious - the tiny down arrow is hardly visible. Is this new or it was like that for a while (obviously, i haven’t been using Sports Apps for a while).

@MdzOtt ticket has been submitted

[MdzOtt]

@twekkel i noticed. There is a separate thread on that topic (not much info, though): https://forum.suunto.com/post/122516 (i just noticed that you referenced the same thread) (:-)

[MdzOtt]

Someone mentioned before that with the new FW, the Sports App selection is remembered (or could be saved with the Sports Mode (?)). I don’t see it working.

[DMytro]

@MdzOtt on new UI watches

[isazi]

@suzzlo one example I know is the double distance in tunnels.

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

Hi after each update please let the battery drain to 0 and charge to 100. Also a soft reboot. That is needed for calibration

[DMytro]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos you mean each beta or in general?

Each firmware update (beta or not).

[Efejota]

For those not seeing Suunto Apps in the watch and just in case. After the update, the Suunto Apps that Ii had installed previously did not show in the watch. I simply uninstalled and installed back again using the App. Not they all show fine and can select them for any activity. Even during the activity itself!!! Great work, Suunto.

— New weather data available for SuuntoPlus (=visible during training)

What’s this about? S+ Weather? If so, I don’t see any change.
