Greetings Vinod_Gowda,


It sounds like your Apple Watch thinks you are riding a bicycle. We know how important this is for you, and we will help get you to the right place for answers.


The first thing to try is to calibrate your Apple Watch, including resetting any existing calibration data. This will help improve your Apple Watch accuracy.


Checking your Locations Services settings may also help. On your iPhone, go to Settings > Privacy > Location Services:

  • Check that Location Services is turned on.
  • Enable options under System Services including Motion Calibration & Distance, Wi-Fi Networking, and Mobile Network Search.


Cheers!
