GamePress

I'm experiencing a strange bug for over a week now. The distance I get credit for is way under the distance I walk.
To test, if I really walk more than the game is noticing I walked a 2 km long, pretty straight way. At the start I put an egg in an incubator and walked the way in normal speed. The app was open the whole time. Waited for the distance to update and got credit for 0.6 km.
My Avatar was moving normal and spinning stops or catching Pokémon is no problem.

Has anyone similar problems or a solution for this?

Been experiencing the same since the last update (the one that introduced PVP). I am clueless as to what might be happening

Is it just adventure sync for you? I don't use this feature and still don't get the distance right.

I've noticed something to that same effect but a little different. I've been keeping my app off when coming into or leaving work because I've noticed I've been getting credited with more distance through adventure sync than I've actually travelled.

Checking my distance log on my phone this week, I should have been credited with 28.1 km so far this week, but the pokemon app has credited me with 30.7 km (I actually thought it would be more when I started writing this post). And I don't significantly GPS drift in the app on this phone so the extra distance isn't coming from that.
