I had this problem before (the first few alpine skiing days). I did power off/power on routine and it started working. I had 3 sessions this week (one full-ish day (5 h, 8000+ m vertical) and a couple short days (2-3 h)) and the problem has not reoccurred. The watch reports runs correctly (while in activity) and the SA reports the number of runs correctly. I didn’t touch the watch since the power off/on last week. Btw. (And this is a completely different matter), the watch does not sync after a few sessions. I need to force stop the SA and then it works for a few days.

Update on my battery consumption model: Some of my GPS activities seem to consume relatively more battery than others. In particular, it seems that Mountain biking consumes more than running or bike commuting? Vertical 2, firmware 2.48.16 ran from a full charge down to 7% in 12 full days with 28:45 hours (!!) of cumulative GPS activity (biking, running, mountain biking). The corresponding model that was very close to this (and my previous charge cycle): Sleep tracking with DND rate: 0.11%/h Non activity rate: 0.24%/h GPS Activity rate: 1.50%/h Flashlight rate: 20%/h Settings: AOD OFF Raise to wake: Display only 247 HRM Notifications ON No external BT connections except Android Suunto App (6.5.9) Wireless OFF BT discovery OFF Brightness LOW DND from 22:00-5:40 Sleep tracking on with HRM but without SPO2 NO USE OF FLASHLIGHT

@VoiGAS I assume that the issue is something like that. However, under the assumption that GPS is accurate, especially multi band which I used and is supposed to be very accurate, I would think that step count could probably be corrected by a better algorithm (assuming occasional measurements would miss a step, measure double air time or some other artifact).

@Ecki-D. I think your guess is correct, it probably won’t work technically. It’s kind of a shame because you have to consider navigation or live trekking… Thanks for your feedback

@Olaf-Gottschalk Ah thanks - didn’t know that you can not repeat a sportsmode more than once

@aerodynamik I am also not satisfied with the volume and vibration on the watch. But i live with it. It would be good if it could be improved.

@ze230877 Let’s hope… Basically, I am happy with the watch.

@AYHAN-YILDIZ @Elipsus I can confirm that the SpO2 widget is working on field test firmware. I have no idea where the information stating this was disabled was generated from.

@owend I also once had that problem with hr data. but in that training I paused the training and then continued. later I noticed that problem in the application.

@TED77 But generally, the number itself doesn’t matter, nor do these types of comparisons. If the trend or graph is more or less the same in both tools, the difference in numerical values ​​can simply be ignored.

About a week ago I had this issue! When pausing the activity and then attempting to end it, it would lap instead. It seems the actual workout had been bugging out as the GPS points were very far apart.

@duffman19 Same problem still persists on my V1.

Tested today, thanks for the advice to both of you, it works well on routes without crossings. Great.
