OutRun VS spotube

Ive had a similar problem to you, but I have mostly solved it by using the Outrun app (which is free and open source), and going into the settings and turning up the GPS smoothing. I mostly run in central london, and it seems to work with the tall buildings here.

Shout out to the app "Out-Run" that I use to track my rides. Privacy focused way to track your rides without all of the bullshit social media that comes with Strava. No account, all data stored locally, can easily export your rides, no data collected. Have exchanged a few emails with the dev and he's a super cool dude, so I shout out his app at every opportunity. All open source as well.

This is the GitHub page.

Spotube might be the answer if you don’t have an iPhone.

Using it on Windows and the client is good enough.

Spotube allows following artists (and listening to music, creating playlists…) using Spotify's API, wuthout the need to have a Spotify account.

Reading through some of the code, it seems that it uses Spotify as a means to grab additional data such as lyrics, playlist information, and more. It streams the audio from YouTube, but a lot of the rest looks like it's Spotify alright. For example, the code snippet linked there shows it matches YouTube URLs to Spotify IDs and merges data from both. Not quite sure it's misleading, but it's definitely an interesting approach.
