Wrong Distance, Right Track

Hi,

When I track my walks, the track is accurate but the distance is extremely wrong. I use GPS only and every second data recording. However the pace was set to kilometres/hr, I don't know if that matter but I guess it doesn't. Look at my tack and look at my distance:

Check out my walking activity on Garmin Connect. #beatyesterday

I see the activity was recorded on firmware 3.10. Check out the changelog for 3.20. There's been a fix for incorrect GPS distance.

Thanks for the information. How do I update to 3.20?

Normally the update should happen automatically when you sync your watch, either by the mobile app, or by garmin express on a computer. The update was released just yesterday, and might have not propagated to all servers yet, so if you didn't get it yet, then you should expect it in the coming days.

Thx for the info, I download the update and put it under the GARMIN folder when I plugged in my Instinct. The distance is accurate now :)
