I've been using the Cyclemeter app for a while to track rides, based on great reviews by other cyclists. I also use typical handlebar mount cycling computers on most of my bikes. It's a great app in many respects -- low cost, provides all sorts of riding statistics, maps, elevation gains, etc.

However, the quality of data that Cyclemeter records seems to be very inconsistent and at times inaccurate. The elevation gain/loss data is next to useless. I get widely varying results for elevation gain from day to day, riding the exact same commute route. It has shown daily elevation gains ranging from 200' to 1000'+ on the same route.

More troubling to me, however, are the inconsistencies in mileage and time. Compared to the cycle computers on my handlebars, the distances shown by Cyclemeter are almost always longer and the times shorter. For example, on my commute yesterday, my cycle computer showed 32.0 miles in 2:11 hours. Cyclemeter showed 32.7 miles in 2:08 hours.

Has anyone else noticed similar results using Cyclemeter?
