    iOS 26 Shortcuts Logging of Workout Is Slow

    I have a shortcut that I wrote over a year ago to log a martial arts workout. I do this because I can't wear my Apple Watch during martial arts training. Once I updated to iOS 26 (now 26.0.1) the logging takes a long time, about 5 or so seconds. Specifically in the section of the shortcut that...

    watchOS 26 Smart Stack, workout suggestions, and 5-second countdown

    I like the new workout suggestions in the Smart Stack on watchOS 26. However, when I see a suggestion for my afternoon walk, and I tap on it, I don't get the 5-second countdown like I do if I start a workout from the Workout app. Does anyone know of a way for that countdown to happen?

    Cycling Cadence sensors

    Apple mentioned cycling cadence, speed and power monitoring during the WWDC keynote. I've got a cadence/speed sensor that I've been able to get working using a 3rd party app. Is this functional yet in the workout app or Fitness+?

    Custom workouts for something other than running?

    Is it possible to create custom workouts for activities other than running? Would be especially useful for swimming so that I don't have to remember every set but can simply check the watch. I could also use (free) third party apps if there is any. Many thanks in advance!

    Workout creates splits by itself?

    I cannot figure this out and hope someone can help. I take a daily walk and tell my watch 7 so. Recently IT started adding 'splits' to my walk (not me!). At random moments the screen shows split 1 or split 2. I am not sure what to do so I just click the side crown button to make it go away. I...

    iPhone Gym workout app

    I've started back in the gym but this time it is without a trainer. When I went to the gym before, I had a trainer and she kept a notebook. For each piece of equipment, she would have the settings and the weight and perhaps other notes. It also logged what exercises we did each week because...
