Workout pausing during workout

Hi,


I couldn’t respond to the other thread as it’d been closed.


Subject says it all. Halfway through a run and my exercise is paused. I followed all instructions on the other thread and it still happens.


Brand new top spec Apple watch (can’t remember what it’s called but it’s the latest one).


Coming from a fitbit to this is a MASSIVE disappointment. I want to be able to tell it when to stop recording. Literally nothing else should stop it recording other than me having to tap in some safe/locked way to stop it. It’s quite pathetic from Apple.

Apple Watch Series 7, watchOS 8

Did you try the steps in the 'Get reminders to end your workout' section of:

Use the Workout app on your Apple Watch - Apple Support

If you don’t respond to the notification or you dismiss it, your workout continues until you choose to end or pause. To turn this setting on or off, open the Settings app on your Apple Watch, tap Workout, then go to End Workout Reminder.
