I am seriously at the end of the line with the Apple Watch. I just received my 3rd watch, this time upgrading to the ultra, and while I love the size and look and all that, I have a massive issue with this product.
I can’t even get 15 seconds into a workout without the watch pausing the work out. I do have some tattoos but my previous apple watches worked much better than the Ultra iteration. I don’t understand why apple doesn’t just put out an update that tells the watch, hey don’t fucking pause constantly during work outs.
It’s such bs because if I start a run and don’t initiate the workout on my watch, it will prompt me at the end of my run to record the workout, and all the data is recorded perfectly. But if I try to start the run on my watch at the beginning, every 10 seconds it pauses.
Seems like an easy fix to me, just eliminate feature that pauses workouts constantly, there is literally no use for auto pausing a workout, if we want to pause I will look down and press pause.
Boggles my mind they haven’t fixed this yet. I’ve seen some threads on reddit about this but I am curious to know how many others are affected by this issue?
I appreciate the thought out response but I don’t know why they can’t just program it not to pause. I already went through and adjusted the settings.
It doesn’t make sense to me that the workout just pauses after 10 seconds when I start it, but if I go on a 30 minute walk eventually it will prompt me asking if I’m on a walk and want to record it. When I press yes, it has all 30 minutes and then the watch just pauses 10 seconds after I accept.
If tattoos are the issue how did it record the previous 30 minutes? I’m convinced Apple could patch.
