Workout app is not responding on Apple Watch
Every time that I start the Workout app on my Apple Watch, this happens.
- I click on the side button to scroll through apps in my dock.
- I scroll to the Workout / Exercise app and tap it with my finger.
- The Workout app comes into focus on my Apple Watch
- Attempts to use my finger or the crown wheel on the watch to scroll through exercise has no effect.
- Tapping the screen does not start the currently displayed exercise.
I can get it to work by
- Push in the crown until I get the application screen ( ie screen displaying all of my installed Watch apps )
- Selecting the Workout app again. Tap to verify that it is still not responding.
- Press the crown to go to the watch face screen
- Click on the side button again to access the dock.
- Scroll to the workout app and select it.
- This time , instead of the displaying exercises, the app icon stick figure takes up the entire screen. And a line draws a circle around the icon, which reminds me of a loading screen.
- The stick figure icon disappears. The workout app is 100% responsive and functional.
Facts:
- This happens every time. I use the app at most twice a day, so there are long delays between uses.
- I haven't rebooted my Apple Watch since the problem started. I'll do that today.
- My apple Watch is running OS 4.2 , has 2GB of available memory.
Has anyone else experienced these symptoms? If so , do you have a fix for this issue?
