I commented once before that the pace in my app during a running workout is all over the place. I adjusted the sensitivity of it and it was still totally inaccurate. It was anywhere from 9:00 to 12:00 pace, and one of my miles was in the 8’s.
Is there anything to fix this?? No other running app does this. I want to use this app because I feel the distance is more accurate than the stock Apple app but this pace issue is really bad.
As an aside, does this app use the GPS differently, like make more connections with the satellite? The distance is much more accurate than the Apple app on the same routes.
The instantaneous pace can be erratic for some people in the current version. Sorry about that. I have fixed this in the next version, which will be released in a few days.
By default the app uses Apple's calibrated pedometer-based distance estimates, so in theory the distances should be the same as other apps that use Apple's estimates. However there is also the option to calculate the distances purely from the GPS, which some people find more accurate. So maybe you have switched to using that?
To check press the watch screen hard and tap Settings then More, and look for the "Use Calibrated Distances" switch. Note that just using the GPS makes you vulnerable to poor GPS signals, whereas the calibrated pedometer distances should be unaffected by that.
