Workout bug

[Usma36]

While using the exercise app while on the Apple Watch 3 cellular I noticed that it only tracks elevation if I leave my phone behind. If I bring my phone the exercise app won’t track elevation. Am I missing a setting someplace?

Mine tracks elevation without my phone present. Not sure whats going with yours, do you frequently shower or get it wet in some other way? They put the barometer under the area where the bands connect to the watch. Maybe you have some water stuck in there?
