Smart Stack activates without user input

[robertcoogan]

Smart Stack activates often and frequently on my Apple Watch Ultra. It turns on even though I am not double-tapping my thumb and index finger. I just appears whenever I bring up my watch face to check the time.

Is there a way to turn this off? I love Smart Stack, but I can't get it to stop turning on randomly.

watchOS 11 brought the ability to automatically open to the start stack for live activities and media apps (media apps used to open by default before watchOS 11.)

On the iPhone, Watch app, Smart Stack. Either turn off "Auto-launch live activities" or go through the apps listed below that and turn off live activities for any of them that you don't want, including media apps.

Yup, been bugging me since watchOS 10, I get this several times per day still but back in 10 I found this setting described in the link below that helped
