Forerunner Distance inaccurate compared to other Garmin devices

Hi,

Me and my family do a regular walk regularly together. We all have various Garmin watches. My family's always record a similar distance whilst mine slowly over the walk deviates further and further. When theirs beeps for a mile of the walk activity, they do so at similar times but each mile mine takes longer and longer to react. At the end of the walk I was 0.4 miles out.

I have also noticed my steps have decreased since getting this watch. At first I just assumed I was walking less but the more I try to increase the steps it's not having nay impact. Any ideas?

I would have thought a GPS device to be more accurate... My old Fitbits record milage better than the 245.
