I have an Apple Watch 5. In some recent update, a bug seems to have been introduced and time does not update when the screen is visible but not activated using the workout app taking an outdoor walk. So it could be 8AM but the darkened but visible screen on my watch shows updated workout data but an old time such as 7:15AM. This has caused me to be late for a meeting… can this be changed/fixed? It was not this way before.

I am very surprised that a reboot seems to have fixed this situation! Thank you. I thought I had tried this, but a reboot has fixed it. That was a most helpful suggestion! Thank you, and thank you for patiently answering my question.
