Elevation issue

I’ve had my watch for 3 weeks now and on some of my walks the elevation says upwards of 80m which is completely inaccurate. I’ve tried to reset fitness calibration data but that doesn’t seem to do anything. Any ideas?

Check something... this may or may not help.

Go into SETTINGS > PRIVACY > LOCATION SERVICES, and scroll down to

Compass

Maps

Is "Precise Location" turned on?

Hmm. The only thing I can think of at this point is to make sure those location services are turned on "While Using" by turning them off then on again and maybe rebooting the Watch and iPhone.
