Apple watch open water swim app My open water swim app pauses after 10 seconds. I have removed the auto-pause. Do I need to have it next to my skin? it has been over my wetsuit. I need this to work, this is why I spend $300 on the watch!

Selected swimming option accidentally When selecting an activity I was moving and accidentally selected the open swimming activity. Now, I can't get back to the main watch screen and it's asking to remove water, which there is none since I wasn't swimming. I tried draining my watch's battery and that didn't work. Not sure what else to do.

Turn the digital crown continuously in one direction until the water lock releases.
