RE: ANOTHER QUESTION ON THE WATCH
I could see how any other workout but an outdoor walk would kick in sooner, for a walk it is most difficult to figure out whether it's an outdoor walk for exercise or just a walk where you go from point A to point B although Apple could maybe lower the threshold a bit since I really have to walk fast for it to kick in. I'm not a slow walker, but even walking normally for me will not trigger it after 15 minutes, I have to deliberately walk fast. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Anna Dresner Sent: Sunday, November 11, 2018 9:41 AM To: VIPhone Mailing List Subject: Re: ANOTHER QUESTION ON THE WATCH Hi, I have also heard that not asking for 15 minutes is intentional.

RE: ANOTHER QUESTION ON THE WATCH
Hi Anna, maybe the newer watches are better at this, but my series 2 watch will only detect an outdoor walk after 15 minutes and I have to walk quite fast for this to work, if I walk normally it doesn't kick in. I read that this is done intentionally so it doesn't necessarily ask if you are working out if all you do is walk to the store which is 5 minutes down the street. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Anna Dresner Sent: Saturday, November 10, 2018 9:54 AM To: VIPhone Mailing List Subject: Re: ANOTHER QUESTION ON THE WATCH Hi Carol, The easiest thing is to ask Siri to start the kind of workout you want.

Re: ANOTHER QUESTION ON THE WATCH
Hi Carol, The easiest thing is to ask Siri to start the kind of workout you want. However, with Watch OS 5, the watch will usually detect when you've started a workout if you forget to tell it ahead of time. It will make a guess as to the kind of workout you are doing, and you can accept that guess or pick the right kind. It can also detect when you've stopped working out and ask if you want it to stop recording one.
