Some weirdness to report. Today I walked on a measured course of about 5 miles. I've walked this dozens of times in the past.
Here's what Steps told me: 10,212 steps, 9.46 miles, 775 calories burned, active time 1hr 27 min.
9.46 miles? WAY off by almost a factor of 2. I assume the calories is based on "mileage".
Now here's what GPS Tracker tells me in Health and Fitness for the same walk.
8,666 steps, 4.92 miles, 401 calories burned, active time 1hr 12 minutes.
While this stuff works most of the time, I'm at a loss to explain why it goes "nuts" on occasion. I do the same thing on the same course. GPS signal 4 bars. Wide open spaces, no obstructions. I hit the start workout button, put the phone in pocket top side up and go. Nothing else running on the phone. I don't fool around with or gawk at the phone while walking. I'd much rather look at what Mother Nature has to offer.
