My wife is training for a marathon and has a Galaxy Watch 7 connected to Samsung Health. Samsung health has Strava added as a service. She starts the run activity from her watch. Most of the activity syncs but not all. It’s pretty random how much is not the same as Samsung Health. 

We’ve tried resync but still getting these strange differences. Any ideas?

Hi ​@Flanboy52,

This seems quite tricky, and it appears that none of the hub visitors have ever seen this scenario, which is probably why your question was still unanswered…

Would you mind sharing some additional details? It's not 100% clear from the map: does this mean that the activity is cropped on Strava? Is the end part being cut off..?

I don't have Samsung myself so I’m not sure about the Samsung Health options, but if this is possible, let's try: export a sample activity (which got initially synced incorrectly) from Samsung Health and then import it manually via this page, https://www.strava.com/upload/select - is the result the same?

(+ to add... I’m wondering whether it's actually a moving time vs. elapsed time difference… if the activity on Strava is public, would you please share a link to it? it wouldn't explain the distance difference but if the “elapsed time” is the same as the workout time from Samsung, we can focus on the distance in more detail too)


you are not alone! I have recorded my walks and runs or any other workouts in SAMSUNG HEALTH app but the distances or data SYNCED to STRAVA is such a huge difference!
