Suunto Movescount

Pretty much a useless app. Have had it since it came out, and it never really worked well. It takes about 10 minutes to sync, if it doesn't error out first. Drops connectivity to watch often. You'd think after 3 years they would produce a usable product, but this app is garbage. If you're looking for a fitness tracker, look elsewhere. They keep trying to shove new features into an app that doesn't work in the first place. Very disappointed in Suunto. Just get a fitbit

Absolutely terrible. It took me weeks of experimentation to get it to work on my previous handset (Galaxy S7) - I had to disable all power management and optimizations for the app. Now I have a new handset it does not connect to my Traverse at all... I have tried everything imaginable, but all to no avail. Suunto do not consider this a defect so I am not expecting any results there. In the absence of sync and notification functionality, the watch is as good as useless.

Suunto is a great example of a manufacturer producing fantastic hardware and terrible software. I recently switched from Ambit2 to Ambit3 and am deeply regretting it. Made this move only to be able to connect the watch with my Android phone. The Movescount app is a primitive product, so is the Suunto app. Can't just you guys make ONE software in the right way? Intuitive, fast, comprehensive? Why is sincronizing soooo slow? And please allow notifications and HR belt connectivity at the same time! If you want a healthy business for a long time for now on, move fast! Otherwise you will lose most of us. Garmin, here I come!

Unstable behavior while synching Suunto Ambit3 Peak. I've been using this app since 2016 across multiple Android phones. 1. Usually synching with the watch is not smooth and not happening from first trial. 2. Even when it sync with the watch and saves the movement in the app, again many times it doesn't sync with movescount website and delays it for days. Meaning activity upload to Strava can be delayed for days.

As other users have said, it seems to struggle with connectivity via Bluetooth to my watch (Samsung S8 to Ambit 3). The synching icon on the App just appears to go on for ever without progress being shown - actually, behind the scenes it may well have synched because I receive a message from Strava confirming the link to Movescount has updated - but Movescount should have told me this first. Overall, 'clunky' is what others have said. Unfinished and certainly not slick. Hence I don't use as I cannot rely on it.

The HR data synced to the Movescount app is often completely different than what is displayed on my watch. I downloaded the new Suunto app. When I sync the same workout to the two different apps I get 144bpm average on the Suunto app (same as watch) but only 130bpm average on Movescount. All other details (calories, distance, etc) match up perfectly. Only Movescount is integrated with Discovery Vitality and this has caused me to miss out on plenty of reward point due to incorrect HR data.

I love the application and ability to edit and add any information. The only problem is that when you edit information in movescount and upload it to Strava to post publicly the new data does not sync properly. It only syncs with the old original data that's in movescount. But overall the program is fantastic.

Suunto made this app unusable and i have to use a website to update my watch now. I loved this watch/app when I had its full capabilities but now the app is useless same with the new Suunto app. It lets me sync, it doesn't even update the time and date. Very unhappy. I understand they have sent info out since May 2019, but there is not mobile bridge. We are stuck to a computer to update my ambit3 run. It was supposed to be mobile, What if we didn't have a computer? the watch will not connect to a phone.Terrible experience for a year now.

I've moved to Sunnto via Fitbit and TomTom. Initially I found the app a little ... old fashioned? ... but after a very short time it became very clear that, like their watches, Suunto is a hugely sophisticated and top level experience. The amount of data available is excellent and I love the SuuntoMovie experience as well. Mapping is, as you would expect, first-class and the accuracy is amazing considering the size of the device. The app, like the watch, is world-class.

This app is so inefficient or maybe I'm used to garmin connect. Its frustrating that the app and watch cant just sync automatically through blue tooth when they're close to each other. Also many many many times new acivities will not upload after i sync thr watch to my phone multiple times in the app. not very user friendly and no options to trouble shoot. Love the watch but suunto needs a better more efficient and reliable app

Terrible, didn't upload to Strava (again!) so I wanted to do this manually. However my recent runs weren't showing up. Logged out/in and it showed even less runs! Again: now it shows no moves at all! I will never buy a Suunto watch again, even though my Ambit 2S is performing well, the software is (and has been) really unreliable.

Notifications (incoming calls, emails, messages)from this app are not working on my Traverse, thought I adjusted my phone as well as my watch. Same adjustment on Suunto app working good,but it's missing watch customisation options. Considering the price of the watch, I expected everything to work including application and support. Don't make people "run away" to your competitors ( Polar,Garmin etc.)

Why does it keep losing Bluetooth? I sync it up with my phone for notifications. And it works for a while then it loses the connection and when i try to sync it back up it will only be connected for a bit and not even show notification at all. Am i doing something wrong?

Seemless between phone,computer and gadgets. Triathlons to a normal work day to sleep. Analysis is at my fingertips, accurate, concise and meaningful. Proving and disproving the effectiveness of my physical regimens. Easily shown to others. Easily shared with others. Easily programmed and executed. I'm a fan.

It does what it needs to do well. Not too many features to scatter focus on the important parts. I don't understand why the Suunto app is pushed on users just yet. The deal breaker of not being able to sync to Movescount will not let me use that until it's fixed.

So, I tried to change to Suunto app. I did in Dec, it's prettier, faster... that's about all. I wound up coming back because I like the data management better here. I did just take a look at Suunto app again and since the most recent Android update, it won't even open on my phone. And Suunto wants to take this app away? It's not perfect but I've got it working well for me. Let it be.

I have had this app for 3 years now. Anytime bluetooth gets disconnected from my watch/ phone connection, it takes many attempts to reconnect. Now 3 years later, my Suunto Traverse watch is suddenly no longer compatible with the app as of 2 weeks ago and cant be paired.

i paid $400 for a watch and i expect it to pair with my phone. Why in the world can you not fix an app as simple as this to sync with my watch?! i contacted customer support, they insisted they were working out fixes, now A YEAR LATER IT STILL DOESNT WORK. Seems they have abandoned this app and moved on to the Suunto app which doesnt work withe previous year's watches?!

Doesn't work with my p20 pro; syncing is disrupted by screen timeout and fails all the time. I was using it to sync my ambit3 peak with my Sony phone it worked almost fine. And another thing is that the hr smart is not able to connect to watch and gym device simultaneously. Sad.

I inherited my suunto ambit 3 after my partner threw it across the room one last time because the app won't synchronise ...... my sony watch gps died after 2 years of perfect app synchronization so I'm using the suunto watch.... great watch but across 4 phones it will not synch. unbelievable especially as my partners garmin synchs perfectly. so movesaccount is the only app that doesn't work for its one intended use. I'm writing such a long review as i have time while i patiently wait to re pair

Moved to Suunto from a Samsung gear fit pro, the watch looks the business but the application and indeed functionality are a major disappointment. Does not automatically register that your running and when in treadmill mode it does not register any steps. So I guess you can only use it successfully without any apps being installed.

I have a Suunto Traverse Alpha and the biggest problems related to the app are: the syncing, the fact that the map does not contain the POI's and finaly the fact that the app does not remain active if I want to close all the running apps in background. Please solve these problems and I will give it 5 stars...

Take ages (between 30-60min) to sync one activity; no option for background syncing available and thus can't use phone for other things. Frustrating to change screens as syncing takes so long. Once it synced it is load to strava (benefit) but details on movescount app and strava usually doesn't agree.

Terrible- lost too many long runs due to the app's inability to sync with watch properly. Have recovered some, but not all. One positive is the suunto help team do make an effort to recover the activities. And are sometimes successful

Does what its supposed to, reliably. No crashes or data loss to date. Web view is much richer, but thats cool, app provides a decent overview. Selective notifications are a cut above other manufacturers offerings.

This app crashes often when trying to sync 10+ hour efforts to Strava. That effort then becomes unavailable to view at all without crashing the app, even after reinstalling it. To not be able to view a 10 hour effort is simply frustrating.

My watch battery died. I recharged it to full and turned on. Why then does my layout revert to factory? It's not right to re-sent up every time the battery dies. It took a while to organize. The use of app to offload watch and organize watch layout (okay for this). Please add second decimal number to stop watch, bought it for this reason as my work requires it. My sons $6.00 watch from Asia has it. Suunto Traverse Alpha Stealth.
