I am switching from a Galaxy Watch 5 Pro to a Venu 2 and at first trial I'm finding the distance that is noted in the activities "Treadmill" or Inside Walking (Without GPS) are way off. In fact it's ridiculous, showing half of the entire activity as Idle, some speed as high as 23 MPH and a pace of anywhere from 4 minutes to a mile to 40 minutes. Is this normal? I have done an outside walk of about 20 minutes, knee injury prevents me from running so walking will have to do.
Do I need a footpod to get decent indoor distance numbers, or is there a way I can calibrate this watch? I DO have a fairly accurate stride length in the settings, and I thought it would be used. In fact, Using the data field "Steps to Fit" using that step count, and multiplying it by the custom stride length, it comes up with a reasonable figure. What am I missing?
