The GPS seems inaccurate, I see lots of spikes.

Improving GPS accuracy

GPS problems can be frustrating. Although WandelWeb itself has no influence on your GPS signal, you can optimize the accuracy:

Step 1: App settings

Make sure WandelWeb always has access to your location, not only when using the app. This ensures a more stable GPS signal.

Step 2: Turn off battery saving

Turn off battery saving mode during your hike. This mode can significantly reduce GPS accuracy.

Step 3: GPS accuracy

Check in your phone settings whether your GPS is set to 'high accuracy' or 'detailed'.

Tip: Don't start your hike until your GPS signal is stable. Wait a minute or so after turning on your GPS before you start recording.
