Hi everybody,
I run with my Apple Watch SE, using the Adidas running app. When I start the run with my watch, the GPS does not work. Only after 2 or 3 km (or never) does it start to trace my race.
However, when I start the app via my iPhone there is no GPS issue. The GPS issue is only with the watch.
I already reinstalled the Apple Watch, but the issue is not fixed.
Thanks for your help!
Apple Watch SE, watchOS 7
I tried twice and - indeed - the Native App is working. Thanks Randy-12.
Good news is that the itinerary is automatically also tracked in the Adidas app.
Bad news is that I can not ear the parameters in my Airpods (pace, distance, bpm, etc.). There is only a vibration in my watch each km I run.
Do you know if it is possible to ear those parameters with/via the Native App?
Does it work with the native Apple workout app?
I cannot compare, because the native Apple app does not track the itinerary.
Try that Native Apple app.
You need to see if the problem is at the watch level or the App level.
