The Braille drivers for all displays come from Apple. The hardware developers have very little control. So if something isn’t working right, you need to go to Apple. It doesn’t hurt to talk to both of course, but Apple has totally control. From: viphone@googlegroups.com

I have two major problems with my Apple Watch since updating both my Iphone 8+ and the series 3 watch. First, I cannot adjust any increments in the workout app. So, if you're going to do something for ten minutes, you can't use the picker item to adjust it to 15 or 5. It just does nothing.
