Apple Watch Workouts + Shortcuts

[Itinj24]

I suppose this can go in either forum but I guess I’ll start here.

If anyone is using Shorcuts automations when starting an Apple Watch workout, do you see the full list of workouts in the Shortcuts list? I’m only getting about 1/4 of the full list in Workouts and the majority of the options aren’t even added to the Workouts app on my Apple Watch. For example, I wanted an automation to turn my TV on when I start a Traditional Strength Training workout but it’s not an option for me. It is added to my Apple Watch though.

Yeah it’s the same for me, it seems like Apple offers the automation only to a fraction of all the workouts. You can always select Other training, but it will automate with any workout that isn’t on this list.

Ok thanks for that and letting me know I’m not alone. Almost unpaired my watch for this.

I thought about doing it for “any workout” but really I wanted to create a HomeKit scene when I lift in my home gym. However turning all that crap on (lights, TV, etc) makes no sense when I’m in the pool or running outside lol.

This list makes no sense. Should give you the list of the workouts you added to your watch.
