BUG: Exercise app time not showing in Activity app

Hi Rebecca

See my replies above, both regarding Exercise credit and how workouts are tracked when Other is selected as the activity type.

Many recommend using the workout app in "Other" mode. Today I tried that and it worked perfect on the treadmill . When I usedon the stationary bike, the problem was reintroduced , was to "pause". Then I remembered that I had advised to block thescreen with "force touch ", once done that began to run perfectly. In short, I can´t define well what is the source of the problem but at least i'm finding ways to make it work properly.

Before this , I calibrate the clock for 20 minutes walking outdoors as Apple recommends.

Anyway we should clarify that the app should work correctly in all modes and not only in " other " ...

Another conclusion I draw after using the app " workout " is that it works much better outdoors than indoors. The next day having worked perfect on the treadmill and stationary bike in the gym , he turned to go wrong again. When outdoor use appears to be much more precise and not be put into "pause " without any reason.

I walked 1.93 miles. It took 38.37. The avg pace was 19'56"/Mi (a tick under 3 miles per hour so that blows the theory that you have to walk faster than a 3 mph pace) and my Avg. Heart Rate was 124 BPM. If I use the calculation the other person posted it should get within the 70-85% range. I'm 48 years old. So 220-48 = 172. At 70%, I hit the mark because my average heart rate would need to be 120.4 (my average was 124). At 85%, I didn't hit it because 146.2. Mine didn't register a single minute for that walk. It has measured 13 minutes elsewhere throughout the day but I'm not sure. Perhaps I don't swing my arms enough...I'll try that tomorrow.

I had the same problem, switched to 'other' and now it works fine. I upgraded from the Apple Watch 1 to the newest generation (2), did not have this problem with the old watch...

I am also getting this. I have just done a 30 minute Outdoor Cycle logged as a Outdoor Cycle with timer set at 30 minutes in the workout app on the watch and when I ended the workout I had 24 minutes of exercise. 5 of those minutes were credited for walking to the local coffee shop and back for my skinny latte this morning! So a 30 minute Outdoor Cycle with a average HR of 140BMP got me 19 minutes of exercise on the exercise ring.

On my next Outdoor Cycle on Thursday I will log it as Other. I also do Yoga and log this as Other and I am always credited for the time I do it for.

My Dad, who cycles with me, also has a Apple Watch Series 1 and he is missing exercise minutes as well.

I was showing exercise minutes up until yesterday. I just walk and it was doing fine now today it isn't registering the exercixe minutes but everything else is working fine.
