I am having some elevation gain and floors climb issue in the last 2 months. I noticed it in early December. It might have happened after a software update but I am not sure which one.
If you look at the floor climbs graph above, you can see that starting in December, the stats just went crazy. There are days that when I am walking around the same floor at work and my watch will notify me that I climbed 10x floors. This never happened before December.
Here is the weekly stat. There is no way I climbed 300 floors in the week of December 6 - 12. My weekly average for the whole year was around 100 and it was very consistent.
Here are three runs that I did around my neighborhood which is completely flat. It is so flat that there should not be any elevation. The first two were in Jan 2024 and April 2024. I am ok with having 10m or so elevation error. The third run was in Jan 2025. It recorded a 42m elevation gain. This error is unacceptable at all. This happened to all my runs starting in December 2024. I ran the same route almost every time but the elevation gain could range from 20m to 60m. I thought this might go away after some software updates but it is still happening as of my last run on Jan 14, 2025. Has anyone experience similar issue? I am hoping this is a software issue but now I am thinking if this is a hardware issue because my coworker has the same watch and her watch doesn't have this issue.
