Altitude acclimazation not working

Hi!

Im shure That it was working last year in the week of climbing and hiking in the Alps. This year, nothing is happening. I track most activities as hiking, but also climbing is triggering nothing. 
I can see heat acclimazation in the training status widget  

Also, all day SpO2 is on. Im on SW4.41. 

Is it working for you?

    for me it works fine in 4.40 and now in Beta 4.87 and on Edge 830 on 5.50 & 5.66 Beta , you exchanged your mobile phone in the meanwhile?

    No, im still on iOS. Even the same device.
    Why should a phone have any impact? Its a FirstBeat on device calculation. 
    Missed the opportunity today to try a running activity (while Hiking/Climbing :-D )

    Installing the newest beta made it reappear, even with the data from last week (i returned this evening to my home at 100m above sea level after a week in the Alps).

    Sorry, i mistook it with Heat acclimazation, where the weather information on your mobile phone have to be correct!

    Anyway your Altidude on the watch is correct?

    i found something interesting, because during my runs i always got a wrong altidude, so i changed something on the watch setup.

    In Sensor Menu under Altidude you can set the calibration and there i use since a while DHM instead of GPS and i set to check before every activity the altidude before starting the activity himself, hope this helps, it works great for me?

    i am not sure, but i think you are a german guy, here i found a how to do:

    Altitude calibration through DEM depends on how accurate of your GPS location. If GPS location is off, DEM will give you different altitude. 

    I tried altitude Auto Cal continuously during activity but the result was not good since 945 new Sony GPS chipset is not good enough in tall trees hiking trail.

    i had the same bad experience with auto Cal continuously during activity, my runs where up to 100m over my real altidude, since i changed it to the described settings, my altidude is more then correct, anyway for my feeling, the GPS search takes a little bit longer before i start my run, often arround 1min, but no prob, when altidude is OK then

    Altitude was correct and automatic altitude correction is working, only acclimazation was noch working with 4.41 for me. (The thing wich is the Same like Heat acclimazation, but for altitude)
