Apple Watch Ultra Heart Rate During Workout I’ve been having problems with my Apple Watch ultra. basically as seen in the photos I’ve attached, every workout I do starts with the Apple Watch reading my heart rate and then for the next 5-10 minutes it doesn’t read at all. I’ve looked everywhere and read different forums and tried every setting possibility out there but none of it seems to work because it looks like I’m the only one with this problem, I’ve tried loosing and tightening my strap but it doesn’t effect the process. I’ve came to conclusion that this is a bug in the workout app because the heart rate sensors work and as seen they read my heart rate through the other half of my workout. if anyone else has this problem please let me know.

Apple Watch dies after every outdoor workout, regardless of battery charge or workout length Over the past two weeks my Apple Watch Series 5, watchOS 9 / 9.1 has consistently died every time I return home from an outdoor workout and end that workout. It seems to be related to the Apple Watch reconnecting to WiFi but is also Fitness-related, as this does not occur when I return home normally - i.e. without a workout involved. The watch battery starts close to 100% for every workout, and the length of the workout does not matter - I have had the same experience with 5K, 8K, and 16k runs. After a 7K run this morning, I checked battery life while 200 meters away from my house - it showed 87% left. When I walked onto the front terrace, it died and then gave me the Power Reserve message, showing suddenly only 10% battery life remaining. I have restarted the watch, tried upgrading to the latest watchOS, and even changed the Fitness app I was using (from RunKeeper to Strava) to no avail. This is a particularly impactful bug, as my workouts, while saved on the Apple Watch, don't then sync to the third-party app, and I am unable to track progress, routes, etc. Thoughts? Fixes? Anyone else encountering this?

This is happening to me as well and it started on September 23rd! I don’t understand what is wrong with it! It was fine beforehand
