GPS zero distance exercise

scofferoff

Why after an hour of cycling/etc does the watch show 0 miles covered but times the journey and logs calories??
You can’t start the logging until GPS is locked.
The logging is pointless due to this error as you might not look until you’ve finished your trip.

I’m having the same problem, it asks to be on the street to be able to search for GPS, and when it reaches it, okay, but it doesn’t record distance or speed, only bpm and calories. And when it ends the distance is zero and nothing is saved.

It’s best to Start/record in the app but not start from the watch. If you start on both you’ll get a double recording.
But I’m sure I’ve used only the watch before. Maybe opened the app and made sure the watch is connected.
The watch has gps though.

There’s also the niggle of using the widget that say “outdoor run” only or using the button menu and selecting the exercise type.

It’s all over the place to actually get working where you’re confident you’ve done it correctly.

scofferoff it worked on my phone, but the app scared me a little because the notifications were showing zero, but when I finished it recorded the entire path. Thanks.

Edit: I had done the test only with a watch, it recorded nothing, this time I left the watch at home and only used my cell phone

I have the same issue, tried 10 times to record a bicycle activity and only one time the distance has been recorded.. it’s very frustrating. I tried also to reboot the watch. Reconnect to the phone, but the same. I wait gps ready start the ride but only calories are recorded.

Even I have the same issue. I was doubting if it is an issue related to my device. While I am cycling outdoors, GPS gets connected when I start. However, when I end, it says minimum distance covered. This means, the GPS signal was lost in between and it was unable to connect back.
