GPS Issues

Hi

My runs have sections missing from the map. I can't work out why.

When I select exercise -- then run as the activity -- do I have to wait for the GPS arrow to stop spinning and then connect? If this is the case then the time I'm waiting is added to my run making the time per KM incorrect.

Hello @Rtimmis and welcome to the Community.  Yes, you should wait until your GPS connects before your start your run.  If you start your run before it connects, you will get a steps x stride length distance for that portion of your run and a GPS distance for the rest.

You also added on to a different thread.  I apologize if I misread what you wrote.  The Inspire 3 has connected GPS.  You must have your phone with you when you run.
