      Hello everyone, maybe coincidence but I had a very strange GPS accuracy today. Obviously, the watch had big problems finding my location again after pausing my walk. The conditions were good so no high-rise buildings or anything… Does anyone else, after the hotfix, have problems with GPS accuracy. The watch was also not under a jacket or sleeve…6dfa1b30-55ee-4a2c-9b08-5e80cd6586df-image.png

          @sartoric hi, I had definitely synchronized the watch with the app several times. How can you trigger that?

            Just need to sync, but sometimes it can happen that the file doesn’t get through.
            You can check the version in the about menu in the watch

              it could also be a start with too few satellites locked.
              I usually wait couple of seconds after the arrow is steady green.
              but I have made several experiences with starting running without having satellites locked. sometimes they were good, too. sometimes bad at the (late) start.
              it could as well be simply a bad gps moment and you will not see this kind of error anytime soon again. ✊
