OK. No joke.

I literally just updated to watchOS 26 yesterday, and did my first workout with it today.

Seriously, I may stop using the Apple Watch over this

@marcoarment @caseyliss it's mind-bogglingly bad

@jsnell @marcoarment @caseyliss I’m not sure where all the hate is coming from. I double click the crown, pick the workout app, then start my workout. It’s not great (the app takes forever to start up) but that’s nothing new.

What am I missing?

@hokiewalrus @jsnell @marcoarment @caseyliss same here, but maybe I’m not concerned about getting that much info out of it? Just start workout, end workout, fill rings haha
@chris_colvin @hokiewalrus @marcoarment @caseyliss waiting to start the workout is where it fails though. I guess if you never change workouts.

@jsnell @chris_colvin @marcoarment @caseyliss Ok, so I just did my workout and I noticed I do something to account for this subconsciously: I open the workout app on my watch, then start the treadmill, then go back to the watch and start the workout. So I was accounting for the delay without realizing it.

Is it possible for your brain to outsmart you? Cause that's what this feels like.

But now that I'm paying attention to it, yeah the delay sucks and is bad.
