Ignite

As the Polar Loop uses the Flow app, it is way behind Whoop in presentation, analysis, etc. That’s why all these people use Whoop as the standard. Sadly the Loop is barely in the game. Hopefully Polar itself remains in the game but already it’s well behind in its goals of updating Flow. Additionally

All kind of rumors last year new look was coming out for Android before end of 2025 with an update for iOS following in 2026. Polar never really said anything that I saw. Polar flow app for both Android and iOS remains outdated. My Ignite 3 remains desk bound as a result. Rocking Garmin again.

All that reflects is people seem willing to pay those prices. As we all know, Garmin is really on a roll. Polar is anemic to the extent it doesn’t seem to get out regular software updates, new products. The Loop is a rehash of an earlier business offering with key software issues. So sorry but Polar

My Ignite 3 had the same problem. I tried everything: restarted it, factory reset, recalibrated the battery, and nothing, it seems to have only gotten worse. Finally, I contacted Polar and sent it to technical support. I just received a quote of R$ 1,620 (US$ 300) for the repair: "MODULE PRESENTS LO

Die Ignite 3 meiner Frau hat das gleiche Problem, alles direkt nach dem Update, nach Kontakt mit Polar heißt es nur, Uhr einsenden, die machen einen Kostenvorschlag, ca 270€ für Reparatur, von einem Softwarefehler wollen die nichts wissen. Wäre nicht das erste Mal, dass bei einem Update ein Bug eing

I've moved to Suunto from an older Polar Pacer Pro, my partner has a V2, had an Ignite in the past. I find Polar pretty stagnant, when it comes to the watches (incl. firmware updates) and the app. The value doesn't always compete well. Maybe the Loop will accelerate some development - or hog all dev

New battery for the m430 (can be found on Amazon or AliExpress) and a friend or shop capable of handling small electronics to change it for you (it's not hard for someone with those skills, literally unscrew, open, remove (pop loose) 2 metal plates from a plastic holder, take off and resolder new ba

I feel Polar has the better algorithms and since I've been using Polar watches and chest straps for many years, I'm kinda ingrained in Polar's ecosystem. However, each of these Polar products started having issues within 2-3 years, charging and connection problems mostly. I even had to replace eithe

I'm not a Coros owner, but I did use Polar products for 6 years since the launch of the Vantage V1. I can confirm that Polar is slow to innovate (they truly aren't in the past 5 years) and their app is so, so incredibly dated. The feature-set they offer is often poor value as the competition will of

Hello, My wife uses Ignite 2, and the 2nd device goes wrong nowadays. After about 2 years, the first one faced the known swipe problem, where swiping sideway wasn't registered. The button worked, but couldn't change datascreen. Polar changed it in warranty. Now, after about 2 years usage, the 2nd de
