### 2/5 — アクティビティの同期がなされない

*2026-07-22*

前回アップデートから、頻繁に同期エラーが出ています。改善お願いします。

### 4/5 — iPad Version leider nur sehr eingeschränkt nutzbar

*2026-07-07*

Die iPhone-Version funktioniert soweit sehr gut. Die iPad-Version ist leider nur bedingt zu gebrauchen. Die Verbindung mit der Smartwatch ist nicht möglich, mit den Kopfhörern funktioniert es dagegen. Ein Teil der Daten wie z. B. HRV oder Schlaf werden nicht über das Profil synchronisiert.

### 3/5 — No dark mode

*2026-07-07, version 3.11.0*

Would give it 5 stars if it had a dark mode and also allowed you to crop activities.

### 4/5 — Won’t set watch time correctly

*2026-06-23, version 3.11.0*

I don’t know if it’s the app or watch, but when both are set to auto time, the watch has switched to one hour ahead of the phone. I raised the issue but never heard back. I can set it manually but seems a bit ridiculous.

### 3/5 — Language

*2026-04-23, version 3.9.1*

It’s unacceptable that this app and Suunto watches still don’t support Persian (Farsi), even just for display. This is a basic feature that many users rely on. As a Persian user, I’m unable to read notifications on my watch at all, which makes it far less useful than it should be. At the very least, there should be support for displaying notifications in these languages, even if full system language support isn’t available. Please address this issue—ignoring such a large group of users is not acceptable.

### 4/5 — Works good, basic features missing

*2026-04-05, version 3.9.0*

For me sync of the results works automatically. 
Weather data I’m not sure, if it needed to be synced manually. 
Daily walked Distance is not shown. Neither on the way nor in the app. This is very disappointing for me. 
Only when you start an activity like running or walking and GPS is used, distance is shown. 
Steps and kcal are shown for the day. 
Not the actual distance. 
Why Suunto ?

### 4/5 — Shoe mileage

*2026-04-01, version 3.9.0*

Please add a dedicated feature to this app where you can track mileage on all of your different shoes. Adding the tags does not work. I have been doing that and the mileage is totally wrong on the shoes. That’s the only thing this app is really missing.

### 4/5 — 한글화좀 정확히해주세요

*2026-03-10*

갑자기 업데이트되고나니 한글이전부되어있지않네요한글화좀해주세요 그리고 베타는 언제 정식되나요? 일좀 합시다

### 3/5 — Problème synchronisation

*2026-03-04*

J’utilise l’application Suunto App et je rencontre un problème de synchronisation depuis peu. Tout fonctionnait parfaitement jusqu’au moment où j’ai créé des intervalles et lancé une séance avec ce mode.
Depuis, la synchronisation échoue systématiquement lors de l’étape d’optimisation du GPS. Le transfert des activités classiques (hors séances d’intervalles) vers l’application fonctionne pourtant correctement, tout comme la localisation.
J’ai tenté un redémarrage matériel de la montre, mais cela ne résout pas le problème.
Il semble donc que le souci soit lié spécifiquement aux séances d’intervalles ou au processus d’optimisation GPS associé. Merci de vérifier ce point, car jusqu’à présent l’application était fiable et fonctionnait très bien.

### 3/5 — Good most of the time

*2026-02-20, version 3.8.0*

Use with my Suunto EON core dive computer. Unexpectedly it’s stopped reporting DAC rate, which is pretty annoying

### 3/5 — アクティビティの同期が正常になされない

*2026-02-02*

今回のアップデートの後、アクティビティが正常に同期されません。
スマホ側が同期のまま止まってしまい、更新されたアクティビティはTSSがマイナスになっています。改善をお願いします。

### 3/5 — Good when it works

*2026-01-11, version 3.7.1*

A comprehensive data set that covers most people’s requirements. I personally would agree with another reviewer that the latest upgrade has over complicated the dashboard.
Biggest issue is ‘bugginess’ around upgrades and painfully slow synching both with the watch and when uploading activities to the database. 
Similar problems have regularly occurred with software upgrades to the watch which have almost always led to total synching failure until a patch is launched. The software upgrades appear to have been rushed out without robust testing. If this continues I’ll be changing systems. 
It’s a shame because when it’s working it’s 5 star.

### 3/5 — 文字盤

*2026-01-03, version 3.7.0*

もっとかっこいい文字盤にしてほしい

### 3/5 — Bien

*2026-01-02, version 3.7.0*

Plan de entrenamiento beta ha dejado de funcionar

### 3/5 — Delete route

*2026-01-01, version 3.7.0*

I am trying to delete my running routes, but for some reason, it resyncs them. Next update try to fix it.

### 1/5 — Please add dark mode

*2026-07-21, version 3.12.1*

Please give us dark mode. This bright white burns my blue eye balls. I would give it 4 stars if it had a dark mode and 5 if it allowed you to crop activities.

### 1/5 — Buggy app doesn’t sync with Strava

*2026-07-18, version 3.12.1*

Going to return watch. All I want is for it to quickly transfer the activity off the watch and upload it to Strava. Super hit or miss. Fix this junk

### 1/5 — Great watch, disappointing App experience

*2026-06-27, version 3.11.0*

The hardware is excellent, but software reliability has become disappointing. A core feature of the app has been unusable for weeks, and despite confirmation from support that the issue exists, there is still no fix or timeline. As someone who trains almost everyday and a sport influencer , I expected much better from a premium sport ecosystem.

### 1/5 — Not sync on Tim

*2026-03-30, version 3.8.1*

To get your watch updated on weather or information you have to keep opening suunto app, not even having it working on the back of the cellphone but opening the app literally otherwise never gets updated

### 1/5 — Faces won’t download

*2026-03-29, version 3.8.1*

The faces don’t even download anymore and it resets its self to factory face not good at all disappointing

### 1/5 — Love the Watch, Hate the App

*2026-03-21, version 3.8.1*

Have multiple Suunto watches and use to be able to sync on my Mac. No more that sucks for Suunto. App is a waste of disk space.

### 1/5 — Latest update terrible — consistent issues with syncing every watch or app update with this company

*2026-02-22, version 3.8.0*

Run guide syncing totally crashed with latest update and the support solution is junk (factory reset) — how about don’t push updates without major bugs?? Researching other brands bc this continues to be an issue with Suunto. Thumbs down.

### 1/5 — bluetooth権限に関して

*2026-02-14*

iPhoneのbluetoothをonにしているのにsuuntoアプリ上でbluetoothをonにしていないことになっている。デバイスのペアリングができずイヤホンが無駄な買い物になってしまっている

### 1/5 — 앱 및 시계 언어가 영어 기반으로 바뀜

*2026-02-12*

앱은 한글 영어가 뒤섞여 있고 시계는 영어 소리 표현이 전부 영어로 바뀜.
아마 업데이트 후 바뀐것으로 보이는데
원복 바랍니다

### 1/5 — Diving

*2026-01-02, version 3.7.0*

I use this app for my dive computer. The latest update made what was a very por app into an unusable one. Suunto treats scuba diving like a fitness activity which is very wrong. The last update removes from the diving stats the SAC Rate which is a very valuable piece of info. I’ve been writing to Suunto begging for them to fix this

### 5/5 — Dark Mode is Here!!!!

*2026-08-17, version 3.13.0*

Nice one Suunto.  Dark Mode on the app AT LAST! Now i can see how lazy ive been.  👍

### 5/5 — Une application indispensable pour les amateurs de trail  et randonneur.

*2026-07-29*

Je suis un grand fan de l’application Suunto, qui m’accompagne lors de toutes mes sorties en trail, notamment pour mes défs. Précision, ergonomie et fiabilité : tout y est ! Les cartes sont détaillées, et les statistiques post-activité sont un vrai plus pour analyser mes progrès.
Un petit plus qui changerait tout : il serait génial d’ajouter une option pour identifier les sentiers, segments privés ou les itinéraires qui ne sont plus pratiqués. Cela éviterait les erreurs de parcours et permettrait de mieux anticiper les sections peu accessibles ou mal balisées. Une fonctionnalité qui, je suis sûr, ravirait tous les utilisateurs !
Merci à l’équipe Suunto pour cette application déjà exceptionnelle, et j’espère voir cette amélioration dans une prochaine mise à jour !

### 5/5 — Good app

*2026-07-29, version 3.12.1*

Good app! If I could make one request, for my Suunto ocean it would be great if I could create alarms for specific days rather than just weekday or weekend.

### 5/5 — Very good

*2026-06-16, version 3.11.0*

Very good

### 5/5 — Excellent App

*2026-04-08, version 3.9.0*

Though I don’t know how to get a suggestion accepted by Suunto on POI information added to the app and watch and don’t get a response that’s clear. The devices hardware and app integration is outstanding and I now use my watch as my main navigation device and carry a GPS ( not Garmin ) as a Backup only along with a map and compass. Really pleased to use Suunto now. I use one as a dive computer but this is my first Suunto navigation and app integration and I love it.

### 5/5 — Love the Suunto app

*2025-12-27, version 3.7.0*

App works great with my new Vertical 2 that I got for Christmas. This is way better than the Apple fitness app. More data without it being overwhelming. The design is really clean and easy to understand. My only request would be a dark mode. 
Great work guys.

### 5/5 — 다크모드 만들어주세요

*2025-12-25*

밝은 테마를 보니까 눈이 너무 아파요 어두운 테마 지원 부탁드립니다

### 5/5 — Perfect App

*2025-12-11, version 3.6.1*

I must thank Suunto and its Team for creating this app. It tracks and measures my daily walks and my heart rate ( if I have a heart rate belt). Nothing fancy just a simple App. I still own an X6HR. Truly an amazing watch but it has done its time after 20 plus years. My health is no longer the same. I use this app to track my little life progress. My little happiness. Thank you Suunto

### 5/5 — Dark Theme

*2025-12-10, version 3.6.1*

I need dark theme

### 5/5 — 아이폰 시계알람 지원

*2025-12-10*

아이폰 시계알람에서 설정해 놓은 알람이 순토워치(레이스 s에서 안되는데 다른 모델에서도 동일할 것으로 보임))에서 울리지않습니다.아이폰 럽데이트 전 ios18에서는 지원되었는데 최근 아이폰 ios26업데이트 후에 안되는것 같은데 지원해주세요
