Apple Watch saying split pace instead of time per kilometre

During my walks, my Apple Watch used to say “kilometre 1, pace, xx mins xx seconds”, but since I updated it, it now says “split pace, split 1, xx mins per km” and it annoys me so much!!


This might sound like a weird question but is there any way I can get the old phrase back, because it really made a difference to my walks and this new phrase just irritates me…


If not, can I go back to the old software somehow? Thanks!

Hi, thanks for your answer but that actually doesn’t answer my question. I know how to edit workouts, but not the voice alerts, which is what I’m interested in. I just want the voice alerts to stop saying “split pace” and go back to saying “kilometre 1, pace xxx”

thanks
