        Based on the last graphs it doesn’t look as a GPS error to me (HR graph ? ) … maybe some sort of electrical/magnetic interference ?

        SVTS - 2.40.38
        SSSWHR BARO Amber - 2.8.32
        Samsung A5 2016 - Android 7.0
        Samsung A33 2022 - Android 14 - One UI 6.1
        Suunto App Android 5.2.5 beta
        Suunto App IOs 2.45.0 (19123) beta on MBP M1

            Right, why would the GPS affect also HR?

              @isazi correct.
              So what could affect all the data?
              A time issue (either in display or recording)
              What else?

              t6, S6, Elementum Terra, Ambit 3 Sapphire, Spartan Ultra Copper, Traverse Alpha, S7 Graphite LE, S9B Ambassador, S9P Granite Blue Titanium, S9PP Titanium Sand, Vertical All Black, Race Titanium Charcoal,
              Race S All Black - TI Canary - Titanium Courtney

                @egika no way to know without access to raw data. Maybe someone at Suunto could check.

                  Hmmm, nobody help?
                  I’ve got some more knowledge. My dad had the same problem yesterday. Me too, of course. We were cycling together. He has a Spartan Sport.
                  I re-examined the trouble spots in the charts. I found that the problem is only in the chart with map. The individual charts are ok. See pictures.
                  I also checked for trouble spots in QS, Fatmap and Strava. Everything is ok. No jumps in the map, etc.
                  I see the problem only in SA and SportTracker (same platform?)

                    @pavlas so it is not your watch. It is either environmental, or a bug in the app. Which version of the app are you using?

                      @isazi I’m on beta 4.41.1. My father has non-beta 4.41.1.
                      It’s not the environment. The trouble spots are random and different every time. Maybe UFO 😊

                                        @pavlas issue is fixed on 4.42 release

                                        The issue was that you had a couple of pauses. Those pauses when they were displayed on the map had a bug that caused this only on the map view.
