apple watch asking to end session After the latest update the watch constantly asks to end the session, even when I'm very obviously still moving, walking, etc. This is a new developent and seems to have happened after the latest update 9.5.2 Auto pause is turned off (and was previously). This is very annoying to have it constantly interruping during a class or on a walk.

Apple Watch not recording outdoor cycling automatically Until a few weeks ago my Apple Watch SE automatically detected walking and cycling and recorded the distance in the background. This is a really nice feature because this data also transfers to my health insurance app and I did not need to start a workout for everyday casual bike riding. A few weeks this stopped working. I checked every setting on my phone and watch related to this and tried resetting the watch and restoring it from backup, resetting and not restoring from backup and deleting the "Fitness Calibration Data". Sometimes when I go cycling the watch gives me a notification that it detected that I am cycling. When I start a workout from that notification it displays zero distance. Previously it also recorded the distance already travelled when starting a workout this way. How can I fix this so my watch starts recording cycling distance in the background again? iPhone SE iOS Version 17.5.1 Apple Watch SE Version 10.5

Hi Kerry1000,

We'd love to help with your Apple Watch. Can you explain what you mean by it is giving you segments? Are you using the Workout app? If so, more info on the Workout app can be found here: Use the Workout app on your Apple Watch - Apple Support

Best regards
