Walk App issue - starts at huge distance

Ned15 2 months ago

Hi All

Distance showing and alarm going off when starting Walk app?

distance is 142439km and alarm is sounding as soon as I start the walk app!

I am using the latest software for a 955 and checked the settings. I’m guessing it’s a GPS issue ? But the gps is working for other apps.
I have turned the watch off and restarted but the issue continues

any suggestions?

Hi, i had this occur to me just a while ago (on 165 music). same thing with the distance (same km count too i think) and alarm/vibrate going off - and a map icon like thing at the top. a reboot didn't work for me either.

I was able to fix it by selecting 'Restore Defaults' in the Walk activity's settings. I'm not sure what caused it so far but that seems to have resolved it, for now.. I hope this helps somehow.
