I tried 6 different maps (including paid ToPo and free OSM options), and in all cases 1040 builds a route not the shortest route, often making extra kilometers on roads, avoiding a short road through forest.

Hi.
Yes I understand this, but when users are complaining about short distances, maybe it also is relevant that the Garmin Golf app is known to do just that?
When it comes to the opening post I kind of agree that the difference there is too big to be…
Still happening here too.... short 1 mile walks reported as 19.49 and 20.31 miles this morning, and an afternoon hill run for a measured 0.3 miles reported as 19 miles too.
I am using my Edge 830 with three different speed sensors on three (road) bikes. They have all been in auto-calibration mode; I never questioned that, because it has been decent on my Edge 1000. However, I just noticed that all sensors report distances…
Haven't checked swimming with 26.00 yet (will be checking today or on Thursday), but swim tracking has never worked consistently for me. I regularly get > 90 % "crawl" even when I'm doing a training program with all four stroke types evenly spread. Furthermore…
TobiasLj Why are you so sure about this?

I also have problems calibrating my watch after a treadmill run. The notes say that you can only do this after you have run for a minimum of 1.5 km; does this mean after the watch 'thinks' you have run at least 1.5 km or the treadmill 'says' you have…
not one of my PR's were set on the 'specified' distance but on longer distances
Is that because when you raced the exact distance, the watch came up short? If so, you can claim the PR on the race in Connect. Click the cogwheel…
Bring an old thread back to life. I had this exact problem a few years ago. Distance started coming up short ONLY when using the radar. I have since upgraded to an 830 and don’t have any issues. I recently got a used 510 for my son and connected…
Dear All, I have problems with my 935. Altimeter in activity is allways too high. Distance in open water swimming allways too short (app. 700m recorded for 1000m really). Do you think it can come from the firmware ? I have 21. Do someone have infos about…
