After completing a workout of type “Other” I don’t have the option to name it. Has Apple removed this? Using a series 4 with latest OS
I’ve been trying to figure out what was wrong for months. Apple should remove the support article on naming a workout, or at least give the OS versions that it applies to.
Better yet, why even remove the option? Another case of Apple removing things that are perfectly fine to begin with.
This option has been removed in watchos6,what you have to do now is go into the workout app on the watch and scroll down to the bottom and tap on "add workout" when you tap a list of 78 workout types is displayed and the idea being that you choose the workout type that is closest to the one you are doing.
I found this out the hard way,here is a list of the 78 workout types.;

archery
athletics
australian football
badminton
barre
baseball
basketball

I just tried that out on mine (Series 3 OS 6.1.1) and it is just like yours.
I am not able to name the workout.
Bug maybe?
Thank you, I've learned something new today!
Yes I'm surprised that that support article hasn't been updated,I had to find out for myself the hard way but glad I did,at least 78 workout types isn't a bad list to choose from.
Your welcome.
