Potsdam 30th March 2021 - Komoot pioneers digital navigation and is now offering its users even more choice to own their adventures, thanks to komoot’s latest partnership: leading outdoor technology brand, Suunto.
“We’re delighted to be launching this partnership with Suunto, allowing all current and future Komoot users to access their routes directly from their watch”, says Ben Thompson, Director of Business Development at komoot. “We’re excited to be working with one of the most progressive partners in the outdoor sports world, continuing to build on komoot’s mission to inspire great adventures, making them accessible to all.”
Seamless integration allows komoot and Suunto users to set up the connection in just a few taps. Users can sync their planned komoot routes with all Suunto GPS & DS watches. While out on the trails, users can now follow their route progress, receive turn by turn instructions, see elevation details, and navigate accurately, from their Suunto.
Once done, activities will automatically be saved as completed Tours to users komoot profiles, they can then add photos, create some Highlights and share it all with their friends.
According to Janne Kallio, Head of Partner Products, Suunto “We have the same vision as komoot, to help outdoor sports enthusiasts to find new places, explore the best trails and enjoy the wilderness. This launch allows komoot members to use Suunto watches to navigate and track their hikes, runs and rides, and gives Suunto users easy access to the komoot tools to find and discover their next adventure. This partnership truly combines the best of both worlds”.
