Fenix 7 Sapphire Solar v8.37 GPS ISSUES

I have a problem with GPS
on a recent hike did not record the track normally (Auto pause is turned OFF), when I noticed that the track is not recorded, I had to stop recording and press "resume later" and immediately resume activity to start record the track again. Just stopping and resuming the activity doesn't help.

Example 1:
https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/9152370223

For compare - same track from my friend, but from Descent MK2s Software: 12.30

Example 2:
https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/9133453306

Also noticed when riding a bike (the function "Auto Pause" is turned on) with a long stop (10-15 minutes) also stops recording the track and generally loses GPS signal. It is necessary to use "resume later" and immediately resume activity to start record the track again.

Settings Satellites: All Systems

Does anyone else have the same problem?

I have the same issue. Either when running of biking, gps stops and I have to stop and restart the workout to get my position again. However, the function “Stop and restart later” is enough to get it back working.
Did you get any answer from Garmin?

I didn't get any answer from garmin, but I found what is the problem. I forgot that i installed the hydration app on the watch, and in the moment when the activity is running, watch remind me about hydration, and when add the water in this app, in this moment GPS is disconnect. After it I always should restart the activity.

This problem is very popular and I hope it will be fixed soon...
