Apple Watch Workouts - I want to disable "Move Ring Closed" or "Exercise Ring Close" announcements

During an Apple Watch workout, I hear "Move Ring Closed" or "Exercise Ring Close" audibly from my watch. This is distracting and I want this to stop. Even with my Apple Watch focus setting at Do Not Disturb, these voice announcements still come through. How do I disable these!?


** Solution:** Go to your iPhone, then the Watch app, then scroll down to Workout app, then scroll down towards the bottom and find "Voice Feedback". Disable this! Note: there are other types of notifications that can be enabled or disabled on this Workout page.


Also note, if you are hearing other Apple Watch voice announcements for Mile Split, etc, you can disable these on the Apple Watch but tapping the three dots menu on the specific workout (outdoor jog for example), then going to preferences and disabling the split notifications.
