There have been multiple occasions now where distances recorded in a workout from Samsung health to Strava are off by a significant margin. Recently, both a run and ski workout I've logged have been out by up to 200m on a 5km run. The pace is correct but the moving time and distance is wrong. I have a Galaxy watch 6 classic and I believe this issue started ever since the oneui 8 update. Maybe Samsung has changed their API and Strava is yet to re-adjust their import process? 

 

It's not fun running a 5km pb and having Strava say I didn't run far enough! (Not this run haha)

Hi ​@tomtho, I don't know what might have changed to cause the problem but when it happens, you can try the “correct distance” feature - note, it's not in the mobile app, only in the web version of Strava;
