When wearing the Xiaomi Watch S3 indoors, the step count continues to increase even if the distance during exercise remains unchanged
The distance calculation methods of the watch for indoor walking and outdoor walking are different. The outdoor calculation is based on GPS positioning, while the indoor calculation relies on the product's sensor hardware.
If the outdoor walking mode is turned on in an indoor environment, due to the weak indoor GPS signal, the simulation of the GPS amplifier signal and the weak GPS signal from the mobile phone indoors can cause the GPS positioning to bounce back and forth. This results in the issue of the step count increasing without actual exercise. Please choose the corresponding exercise mode according to the correct environment. For outdoor activities such as outdoor walking, cycling, and running, select the outdoor exercise mode. For indoor activities such as running and swimming, select the indoor exercise mode.
