Sports apps sail racer

[NeaLuu]

@surfboomerang Hi! S+ dev here, we are planning on using the new settings capability where useful, but we can’t forget the older watches which do not support settings unfortunately… Additionally, more possibilities to improve the apps have just opened and I am excited to make the existing apps more flexible, so, yes, working on giving these apps some attention

@NeaLuu Great news!

@surfboomerang Are the Sail Racer apps corrupt? I installed both apps on the watch, but when I try to select them in the watch they are missing from the list.
Other S+ apps install correctly.

Uninstall - sync - soft reboot - install - sync didn’t do the trick

@NeaLuu Hey! Might it be not a big thing for you to make 3min SailRacer app? Cheers!

I noticed that the sail race timer is only available for the “Sailing” sport profile. Please make it available for other (water)sports as well.

@surfboomerang maybe @Raimo-Järvi can help, not sure if it needs whitelisting in the app or the firmware

[surfboomerang]

@isazi I suspect that it can be resolved without a firmware update. The app was available on launch and suddenly disappeared. After the latest firmware update I checked again and the app was still missing.
Then I tried the sailing mode and noticed that the app was available

@surfboomerang Activities are whitelisted in the SuuntoPlus app, so it doesn’t require a firmware update. What activities did you have in mind, in addition to sailing?

[surfboomerang]

@Raimo-Järvi I use the app for windsurf races. But I can imagine it can be useful in other watersports as well.

[Raimo Järvi]

@surfboomerang Sail racer apps should now be enabled for surfing and windsurfing

@Raimo-Järvi It is! Thank you very much!
