    Now that I am regularly doing structured running workouts, more than ever, I pray that rep counter at least will come some day….😧

    I totally agree. In fact, I have been asking for it, just like you and many others. On more than one occasion I have not been able to fully recommend Suunto watches to my colleagues precisely because of this.

    It is something that is apparently easy to implement, but which Suunto has been ignoring for years in an incomprehensible way.

      A great one would be a suunto plus to be abe to activate trhow the watch, the current position tracking of whatsapp to a pre-defined contact. This is really usefull, forexample, if you are doing a long ride and want to advise family 1h before finishing that you are comming and they can calculate estimated arrival monitoring the position.

        @Tieutieu From what I have read in the Spanish forum, this will come and soon.

        From what I have read and deduced there are several nice updates to come in structured workouts, multiple sensors, navigation and swimming. They didn’t provide or leak any dates.

          I hope they don’t include regressions, as happened with the last one and sleep tracking…

            @jsuarez What do you mean with regressions?

            As far as I know sleep tracking is a bug, in which they are working on and a solution will come soon.

                  Automatically update altitude based on GPS data and don’t rely on the barometer and the user having to do the update. Not rocket science to implement is it.

                    Better support for dinghy sailing. At the moment you have to use the basic app then the My sailing App and stop the thing via the basic app. It’s all very awkward and clumsy.

                        What do I expect? The usual: Better testing that leads to fewer bugs and elimination of bugs and inconsistencies mentioned in the forum or elsewhere by the users.

                          @SnowSailor Normal manufacturers use a barometric altimeter, which is much more accurate than GPS altitude data (which is often useless).

                          If Suunto has to improve anything, it’s the algorithm to reduce the effect of wind on the total elevation gain. This is doable because the other company (G) can handle it better.

                            @SnowSailor how is that different from FusedAlti?

                              The last time I ran in a storm I chose to do it in a wood to escape the majority of the winds. Still, the Garmin Forerunner 955 added about 100 metres extra to the Ascent/Descent registered (on a well-known path). The baro sensor holes on a FR955 is located at 6 a clock, under the watch armband, and therefore facing Up/Forwards with a normal running style. Not that smart… Coros Pace 2 holes are at 12 a clock (Down/Forwards) which is better. The Suunto Race S sports the holes at 9 a clock, ie Backwards when running with it on the left wrist. I’ve yet to experience stormy winds on my backside, but otherwise the registered Asc/Desc of this Race S has been excellent - even when running into heavy winds.

                                @SnowSailor I think that this is what Suunto does since Ambit3 times, if not before. You do not need to calibrate anything if you do a GPS activity, the first 10 minutes FusedAlti calibrates the baro with the GPS readings.

                                In my opinion, Suunto is pretty solid when we talk about altitude and ascent in its baro devices.

                                I never had such issues with my SV in any of my activities with strong wind, but I have read that few people have had problems with strong winds, so I hope they can improve this.

                                  @cosme-costa I always have that problem (9PP and two Verticals). And I’m talking about climbing relatively steep slopes (so the speed is definitely different than running). The error is around 50-100%. The graph looks like an ECG and hence such absurdly overstated elevation gains.

                                  The problem with Suunto is that people have been writing about it for several years, and there is always an answer that the problem does not exist.

                                  Here is a more detailed explanation of the problem (you can already see it in the first graphic):
                                  https://www.gpsvisualizer.com/tutorials/elevation_gain.html

                                  which is theoretically easy to fix (filtering excess measurements).

                                      @Elipsus Here is the solution, but a similar mechanism should be used for elevation gains:
