Inability to stop workouts when wet

I’ve gone back and forth with smart watches over the past 2 years. I work out a lot; and when I do, I sweat...a lot. I love most of the features offered with the Apple Watch. But I refuse to wear it to work out because I cannot get the touch screen to do anything at the end of my workout. When I swim, I cannot get the screen to respond to complete the workout until I get my finger and the screen completely dry. How can a company so technology advanced suck so much at this? It’s so frustrating to not be able to complete a run and have the clock still going after I’ve crossed the finish line. I cannot possibly be the only person with this issue.
