Huawei distance sync error

Mardlinboy
Mt. Kenya

I have a Huawei GT Runner watch (which is great by the way) it syncs to Strava but Strava seems to end up showing a different (usually very slightly shorter) distance, which then throws the pace stats etc.. Why is this? Does Strava recalculate the GPS stats?Thanks

Hello @Mardlinboy 

Thanks for posting about this.

It's common to see small discrepancies between your device distance and what you see on your Strava activity page.   These are due to number crunching on both ends - Strava processes and analyzes the data in the file independently.

For more details on this process please refer to this article.

Thanks again for posting and please let me know if this information is helpful.
