    @tomas5 it typically drops from too high, approx 70 - 90 meters during first 30 - 60s of workout

        @tomas5 this is well known. Although I’d like to know whether I should wait for ten more seconds or two more minutes.

          it is the first time I see it that obvious since the campground is really flat.
          in this case, yes it would be helpful to distinguish between satellite lock and “altitude lock” 🙂

            @freeheeler for activities shorter than 15 minutes the issue is that fusedalti may not kick in.

                Today on bike i didn’t have problem with altitude at beginning. But it is funny that lowest point is 375m, highest point is 979m. But my ascent is only 557m which is less than difference between lowest and highest point. By suunto app map planer it should be around 800m. But without barometer i don’t have big expectations from this measurement.

                  @tomas5 I don’t expect it to be perfect. I just want to know when to start the activity 😄 my experience when trekking is that I usually get 1 - 3m error in altitude when checking on marked peaks, with S5 and Galileo. And I find it remarkable.

                    @tomas5 yes depending on the route itself you may see less ascent with baroless devices because of the 7m threshold.

                      @isazi yes probably this reason, when i checked altitude against marked peaks I have same result as @Łukasz-Szmigiel usually few meters difference, only rarely few tens of meters.

                        I started to commute to work on bike sometimes. As i don’t have time at morning, i wait just for green icon to appear and last two rides i started at 450 altitude but graphs started on around 700 and dropped in few minutes. Now this issue starts to be more obvious for me.

                        Is there any feature request i can vote for to fix this issue at least in app after sync ?

                          I support this feature request! we should be informed if

                          1. the satellites are locked
                          2. the precision is good enough to get the correct altitude (for baro versions also with FusedAlti)

                          I have made various observations regarding start altitude but also alti change during an activity on a totally flat track, that I can not explain. It would be good to do some improvements here, or let’s say to inform the user by GUI improvements about the status of the watch.
