Walking indoor does not record distance

I tried it a couple times, and the most ilustrative is leaisure walk inside a mall, about 45 mins, with nothing in hands, and watch registered only 0,01 distance.

Do any other users have this issue?

Please Garmin fix this.

My VA4 works just fine, I use it when I walk an indoor track and it's pretty darn close.
I have tested it outdoors on a known distance just to make sure.

Have you set the stide length setting?

Does it record any steps?

Yes, normally recorded steps

I thought the watch should do that automatically

The way I understand it, Garmin does not recommend setting a manual stride length. It is better to let the watch calibrate it automatically by walking outdoors, using GPS. It works fine for me.

That is what I figured as well. But it does not work for some reason
