Force-quitting the Workout app and re-launching it let me then end the workout normally.
Is that force quitting the app on the iPhone? I'll try that next time. I wasn't sure how to force quit an app on the watch?
 
My S10 is on beta 4. The battery life is beta than on 3 with any doubts but it seems it charges slower.
Anyone observed the same behavior?

I’ve noticed odd behaviour on fitness/health monitoring on my Ultra 2.

My Cardio Fitness as reported in the Health app hasn’t moved in a week despite doing a lot of exercise in that period. I’ve reported via Feedback. I’m posting in here as I assume the issue is with WatchOS.

The VO2 max, right? Mines just gradually increasing.

Y’all got the splash screen when you updated your watches? Seems like they added it on my S6

Also my cyclists has the cycling bug been sorted ✔️ on beta 5?

Any of my Hermes Apple Watch beta users seen it’s still going well?
 
And can we all take a moment to think about how much the WatchOS update process sucks.

I could install every version of MacOS since 10.0 in the time it takes to install a WatchOS update.
Trying Beta 5 on my hermes S10, and its been downloading for an hour, and says about 4 hours remaining, wonderful.
 
I'll be cycling tomorrow so I'll find out then.
Got it lmk how it goes! Hope no more glitches!

Everyone is agreeable! It took me three hours to download, and I wasted time pressing the install button to get it to install beta 5. It’s not as fast as it used to be when I first started wearing an Apple Watch. It finished when I just started working.
 
This beta has totally broken Carrot weather for me.
Same for me, just spins and crashes.

Same here. I'm gonna have to use the Apple Weather app until Carrot releases an update.
Does the iPhone app still work for you guys on iOS 26 beta 5?

I’m still seeing the 85 Degrees app on iOS 26 beta since beta 1 doing that same exact behaviour which renders the app unusable, so in order to use the monthly Sweet Rewards coupons and mobile order I have to temporarily use the website.

No issues with the iPhone app.

Tip from several threads ago: Turn off Bluetooth, which forces it to download via WiFi. Silly that it has to be that cumbersome, but it works.
 
Anyone else have issues with battery reporting the last charge cycle accurately? This was also a bug on an older watchOS version.

Charged my watch twice to 100% since installing this beta but it’s showing that I last charged it to 84% on Tuesday which was the last charge before installing this latest beta.

Mine is accurate. Did you try rebooting your watch?
