I don’t know why any of you are advocating for this always on exercise nonsense, the battery would die in an hour - and Apple isn’t going to give you the option to kill your battery that fast.
Using GPS and streaming music to bluetooth headphones also kills the battery in about an hour. And yet some people happily do that. Other people want to preserve the battery, and don't. Isn't it nice to have options?
 
I use it for many, many things, most of all Apple Pay. It's awesome. But why oh why we don't have toggle to keep display always on while working out? I'll never understand. They should just enable it for Workout app if they want control. Cmon Apple give it to us. I still don't understand...

Agree. They have Do Not Disturb While Work Out which working really well so why not Always On While Work Out? I would turn that on no doubt.

Love my AW3 too, really love it, but idk why we don't have option to keep it always on while working out, it should be our decision.

What kind of workout? Running I have no issues. It turns on soon as I flick my wrist.
