        @far-blue thanks. It is a shame as Stryd seem to be focused on the AW app as the priority

          @kkalsi it is, but it gives them the most control, and is a huge market segment. Send them enough nice support tickets…

              @Richard-McGlory my elevation plot issue was resolved after a suggestion from their support: wash the pods. Turns out the air hole on the front was clogged.

                @Ze-Stuart Thanks for that, I will give it a go. I take it out on the trails so probably the same issue.

                  @Richard-McGlory turns out I spoke too soon: a run on the same route a couple of days later and the missing elevation was back.

                    @Ze-Stuart check you haven’t caught a lace between the front of the clip and the pod - I’ve done that more than once.

                      I ditched my stryd after using it for years. It’s a bad company with a very bad service. They are always blaming the customer if the device is not working. I had so much trouble with that device regarding accuracy especially when changing shoes or with different watches that I finally ditched the very expensive subscription based device.
                      I hope they will fail with their anti customer service very hard.
                      In the meanwhile I am using power for after device analysis only. That’s great on any watch without any special device. Very accurate.
                      The GPS with the newest watches is so good that it outperforms the stryd pod by far.
                      My recommendation: Do not buy a stryd pod. If you still are using one: ditch it and feel free.

                      From my running community:
                      The Stryd community likes to run the 400 m with a measuring wheel to check which is really 400 m long. According to Stryd, you should run exactly on the white line of the first and second lane with your left foot counterclockwise. Under a full moon and sober, of course 🦆 , and then after exactly 8 laps you will have run exactly 3248 meters. If it doesn’t work, then the track was built incorrectly or the measuring wheel is broken. 😄

                        @RightNow that’s a shame you’ve had bad experience with them: I only have good CS experience with them, they have yet to blame me for anything. Doesn’t everyone run with a trundle wheel…?

                        @far-blue no laces, interesting, though. I hadn’t thought of that.

                        @Richard-McGlory we ‘swapped the pods’: what was 1, is now 2, and the elevation profile is back. Key point: data from the pod overwrites data from the watch, every time, confirmed by their support. I imagine all that’s retained is the HR and GNSS track.
