Fitness Focus Turning itself off each night, Not turning on for workout

Same for me on my Apple Watch Series 6 running watchOS 9.2 (20S361) + iPhone 12 Pro on iOS 16.1.2.

For what it’s worth, it’s the default Fitness focus mode that was created when focus modes were introduced. Enabling the option as seen in the screenshots makes it work for a (seemingly random) amount of time, but eventually I’ll start a workout and my phone & watch will _not_ be in Fitness focus anymore. Upon checking the option in the settings, it has then been disabled.

I don’t have any shortcuts or automations triggering when I start or stop a workout, and the type of workout does not seem to affect it.

I am experiencing the same issue. I do not have low power mode during a workout set to on. For me it started after upgrading from iOS 15.x to 16.2 and watchOS 8.x to 9.2. I did both on the same day so I’m not sure which upgrade is the culprit. This bug makes the feature practically useless! Hope Apple fixes it soon.

I suffer from this, too, and have created two automations in the Shortcuts app: one to turn Fitness focus on when I start any workout, then a second to turn it off when I end any workout. That should suffice until Apple decides to fix this particular bug.

Im having this same issue. I set fitness focus to turn on with workout and the next day it’s back to off. Super annoying!!!

I have the same issue that the toggle for turning on the focus turns off nightly. Seems to correlate to updating phone to iOS 16.2 from 16.1 and the watch from watchOS 9.1 to 9.2.
