watchOS 11 Gets 'Check In' Feature That Supports Outdoor Workouts

While this might be a step in the right direction, I really hoped for "Live activities" in the Fitness app under sharing. Currently I have a banner at the top, showing my friends completed workouts for the day - for example "Alfred Run 5,4 km". If you go in under the individual person, it updates their cirkles and daily steps and distance sort-of-live while they run. They should add the ongoing run in the feed and not just completed runs.

Would make it so much cooler, with options to live track people that are competing in a race or live track your husband/wife that are out on a long or late run to see if they are moving and are okay?

Recently had a challenge with a buddy on "First to 200 km. in June" and hikes were included. To be able to track that he was out logging miles would be cool

Ugh, I hate how people are using "Find My" all the time now to track each other. Many spouses/partners I know are doing it. Even if I was in a relationship, I wouldn't want my partner knowing where I was at every moment. Creepy. We lived just fine without this technology in the 2000s, 1990s, and before. Why is it necessary now?

Just don't use it then? Why does it matter to you if someone else wants to use it?

I don't know, it just creeps me out and is sad to see people increasingly become so reliant on technology.

Are you sure you’re in the right place, a forum about technology.
