I want to change the haptic ‘walk’. It never records the amount of exercise I do
Although all other exercises work, walking never does. Is there any way to alter it?

you probably right, i also noticed several times that if i walk slowly, watch does not count.
i also found this:
According to apple support, for the activity ring to register your workout (for outdoor walk or exercise ring) you need to maintain a speed of approx 3.3 mph or faster and increase your heart rate to approx 75% of maximum,this is their definition of a "brisk walk"
since it's from discussions too i don't know if numbers are correct, but anyway there is a minimum definatelly
I have an Apple 3. If I set it to outdoor walk, it records where I’ve been and how long it took, but my exercise ring never closes. It doesn’t seem to score any exercise. I have replacement knees and walk slowly so it is below the threshold to count it I think. However, my heart rate is up indicating I am doing exercise. If I go out cycling it records then.
To earn 1 minute of exercise credit(green ring);
Travel a full minute at a brisk walking pace 3.3 mph or 18 minutes per mile approx.
or
5.3kph or 11.3 minutes per kilometer.
Raise your heart rate to approx 75% of your maximum.
When you're at around or above this heart rate and speed for the entire minute you'll receive 1 exercise minute credit.
If you pause or slow down during this minute then you won't get any exercise credit for that minute.

do you mean auto-start does not work or something else?
what apple watch model do you have?
