I tracked a hike for the first time today. The elevation doesn't always go as high up or down as I think it should have and the elevation at the end is lower than it was when I started even though it should be the same. Is there something I can do to get more accurate data?

HI @MeganCall - there seems to be an ongoing issue with the pressure sensor algorithms, you will probably also notice that your floor count is way off too.
