Fenix 7x Pro Solar High count of floors climbed

AntonB 3 days ago

Hi,
during the last few days I noticed that I climbed somewhere between 25 and 35 floors a day which can't be true

I usually climb somewhat between 5 and 7 floors a day during working hours and another 2 or 3 at home.

System Version is 20.22

Regards
Anton

I understand all this things, but ...

What I dont understand is for example todays experience: out of bed, usual morning routine (toilet, bath) then coffee and pling - I reached my set daily goal of five floors. All the before mentioned activities were on the same floor.

Whats going on with my Fenix?
