My Sports Tracker says my max speed on my jog today was 131 miles an hour! Furthermore, the route I previously measured at about 7 miles expanded to 11 miles! Maybe I should go out for the Olympics.

Usually it seens fairly accurate. Any suggestions about what could cause this?

Frankly, i loved Sportstracker on Symbian but on the N9 the inaccuracy and the constant nagging for a connection (i mountainbike where there is no hope of a network connection) means it is really not usable... such a shame

Same here, sometimes it works really well and sometimes it is really bad as it loses the gps signal and records very high speeds and big jumps on the map as if I flew from one place to another.
Also when static during workout it can record data as if I've been mooving around like crazy.
Got these issues while cycling, running, hiking, skiing....

Anyway I think we should complain to them and not on TMO.

Same here it's measuring a bit longer than my runs are, it's not as precise as endomondo was on my 4S when I had that.

A bit annoying when running regularly and think you've improved more than you actally are.

One day it said i'd had a speed of close to 70 mph when doing an exercise at home o.O

Regards Dousan...

e: endomondo should just port it from symbian...

Yep, complaining there does not get much reaction either though...

Yeah, I am N9 user and I get the same. I am afraid sports tracker on N9 is worthless for distance tracking now...
