Disappointing Sleep tracking after new update

Its more about how the sympathetic / parasympathetic system works (and which one more).

Yes, this is the most important thing about HRV … fight or flight vs rest and digest …

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos about HRV readings and sleep tracking,I did a post 4 days ago on the race and no one gives me some insights, I’m a night shift worker and despite the fact I program my sleep schedule between 8 am until 3 pm with not disturb on,the watch record always the sleep as a nap and don’t give me HRV readings during the sleep. I have a Garmin forerunner 955 and Fênix 7 solar and they record the time as sleep and record my HRV. I’m trying to understand if the Suunto development team as aware of this behaviour and If they plan to do something about that, otherwise night shift workers don’t will have benefits of that metrics

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos I enable DND manually every night before I go to sleep and turn it off shortly after I wake up. I don’t use automatic DND because sleep times.

@Patrick-Löffler-0 I will return it, it’s too expensive and the data is pretty much in line with SV now. I wanted to try if it can help to improve sleep (I’ve had some issues) but the benefit is not big for me + I am not a hardcore athlete so there’s no point in keeping it. It’s still a pretty good device and it can do a lot, the OHR accuracy is stunning, but it’s not worth it for me personally.

@BrunoH hard reset is a last resort for me.
Funnily haven’t had a stand up reminder since the update, tried not to move while watching movie for 125 minutes… didn’t help

BrunoH

@peegee I did the reset and I haven’t received any messages about walking over 10000 steps or burning a zillion calories. I guess they’ll fix it some day. I know there are worse problems than this.

Iggge

Have same problem. Watch only show 3 hours, when in reality it was more than 7 hours.

@BrunoH steps and calories I get after every workout from before update.
Just don’t get the new time to stand notification… not that I really need it but nevertheless it would be nice to see all works well

Sleep tracking lost all accuracy after the update here too. The last three days read 12h, 2:23h, and 1:19h, while it should’ve read something like 5:30h, 7h, and 5:30h. It’s not just slightly off and balancing out; it is very far off.

Updating this with more testing done: Soft reset, hard reset, and turning off things like DND or HRV all had no effect. However, I noticed that the HR graph has a bunch of significant gaps (30m to 2h+) throughout the day despite having the watch firmly secured.

So I checked. This time, I fell asleep close to 22:00, with SV stating it was 00:36. The HR graph shows a 2-hour+ gap from before 22:00 to roughly 0:30, so that seems to add up. Again, I secured the watch so that the sensor would be properly against the skin throughout the night, and these gaps exist throughout the day. I’m not sure why the HR is so inconsistently tracked right now, but I will keep a closer eye on it.

@BrunoH

I did the hard reset yesterday (Sunnto support told me to do), because after the update I didn’t get those message from the watch (Step goal, caloroes goal, weekly summary).

Will see today if it helped, but your comment doesn’t make me very optimistic.

Also having issues with sleep tracking, dnd and stand reminder on.

Step tracking is on 150 steps before Ive even gotten up in morning and not been up during the night either!

BrunoH

@Stoke80 I did get the storm alert today. We are getting 20cm of snow tonight.

Stoke80

@BrunoH
I did receive a storm alert on the weekend as well. They seem to work.

But the others still don‘t work sfter the hard reset. That is abit annoying, although not one of the big issues.

But maybe one of the mods can report this to Suunto for the next fix?

Iggge

Did a hard reset yesterday, but sleep tracking still don’t work. 6,5 hours become 4 hours.
Need to get this fixed

Another night, another report back: HR was tracked properly for the duration of the night this time, and the sleep data is consequently pretty spot-on.

All I did was turn DND and HRV back on (out of defiance) and tighten the strap even further, a bit beyond what’s comfortable. So perhaps the sleeping algorithm is just way more sensitive to gaps in the HR data than before. Or… maybe HR tracking got more picky in an effort to be more accurate.

Either way, with people tossing around while sleeping, possibly laying in ways that lift the sensor off the skin momentarily, such sensitivities would of course wreck the sleep tracking for some.

To be continued.

Only 2h30 of sleep for me this night.
Watch missed my fall asleep hour by more than 2 hours, and count me awake for more than 3h, which was not.
Same settings as usual, auto DND set for same range as sleep tracking, VFC on, HR on.

@Mff73 Same for me is Suunto race last night.

I have SR fo 3 weeks, and also have constant too many awake hours. It matches sleep start and wake up times correctly, but awake segments ar not correct. I have noticed that tracking depends on the how hard the strap is tightened. If you keep it loose it will work terrible.

But even with strap tight enough I still get too many awake hours.

Iggge

So after a really good sleep between 22:00 and 07:00 the watch only shows 3 hours of sleep, and my hrv is even lower than yesterday at 34.
I am 32 years old so it must be wrong
My other watch(not suunto) shows 8.50 hours of sleep.

Need to get this fixed. Have been searching for another watch since it never works, and after the new update the sleep is really important so the other data can shown the correct value

Not really true. HRV is related to sympathetic / parasympathetic system and heart function on a presonal level
