Hi, on this route which includes “direct” routing between two points (cable car), the elevation profile has a very long perfectly flat section — improbable in the Alps 😉 . The length of the flat section is much longer than the length of the “direct” segment.

The iOS app displays the elevation profile correctly (I think)

Ah, I think I see (after some head-scratching). It doesn’t restart the elevation until after the real-life elevation has returned to something near the same level where you started the direct section. Usually this doesn’t make much difference, but in the Alps it does! Not entirely sure how I’ll fix this one but I’ll look into it.
