I've seen instructions on how to track cadence with Apple Watch that says to open the watch app on iPhone and find workout and find the cadence setting but there is no cadence setting there in my app. What am I missing? After a workout it shows ave. pace but not steps per minute which is what I am looking for. All apps and IOS version(16) are current as of today.
I know...MATH. I just want to save some time calculating.
Apple Watch Series 6, watchOS 9
Sorry, I should have checked those instructions more closely.
Yes, you can set up cadence as one of the metrics ahead of time.
On your watch, go to Workouts>Outdoor Run. Tap the three dots at the upper right. Pick an option. Tap the little Pencil. Tap Workout Views, then Edit Views. Cadence is included in one of the default options (Metrics 2) but you can edit those.

So it appears that you need to be actively moving in order to pull up the cadence steps per minute option rather than being able to pre select as a default? Seems like a bother while you’re trying to workout. As I mentioned there are no options within the app referring to cadence but my assumption was it could be added as a default and I couldn’t see a way.

I don't know that it exists for an outdoor walk. However, I don't think there's any reason you couldn't use Outdoor Run when you're walking.
