Pace range alerts (custom outdoor running workouts) issue after 9.2 WatchOS update Weird obscure issue started happening after the upgrade to 9.2. I would like help on this in case I am missing something (to be clear, Apple, this is not a poll). When i go into workout settings for an outdoor run and try to set my pace range alerts, i only have 4 options under the Upper Limit. When I look at my previous settings, it show's for example that my Upper Limit was set to 11'00" But when I click on Upper Limit and go to that screen, the scrolling selection options are only 3'00", 3'10", 3'20", 3'30" --- doesn't matter what lower limit is set to. I've restarted the watch (and iphone) and tried creating new run workouts without seeing this behavior change. I've got a support req in and waiting for a callback but figured I'd post, as well. Phone is 14 pro max and is also on the latest OS update.

Setting Sleep focus alarm in iPhone won’t alarm on Apple Watch I have been using sleep focus and the associated alarm for several weeks now and have been trying to get the alarm (vibrate specifically) on my watch while I wear it sleeping. The alarm sounds and vibrates on my iPhone in the morning, but not my watch. What am I missing? Thanks!

Apple Watch Ultra: workout app weird bug - cannot set upper limit for pace range When trying to select a pace range in the Workout app in the Apple Watch Ultra, it only allows me to do so in the "Lower limit". When I select "Upper Limit", the options are blank. The curious thing is that this worked before, but now it is stuck like that. I have tried rebooting the watch, removing the pace range, trying to create a different, custom workout but nothing works. I did not try unpair/resetting the watch given the hassle of redownloading music etc. - any ideas?
