WatchOS11 Quick Action annoyance

[FMUK]

So I have the Action Button set up to Launch Workout, with a First Press of "Open Workout".

But if I use the long press to change Action Button to something else, and then later switch it back to Launch Workout by long pressing again, then the First Press action defaults back to "Start a Workout". Is this a bug, or an annoying feature?

I think I am having the same issue as you.

I have/had the action button set to "open workout app"

With OS11, I decided to play around with the long press action button and change it to something else.

I changed it back to "open workout app", but it doesn't just "open workout app" it immediately starts an outdoor bike.

I have to "end" that outdoor bike to get back to the workout selection and then select the workout I want.

Is this whats happening with you as well?

This makes the "quick action" anything but quick. It doesn't even default to open the last workout I did. It just keeps opening the damn outdoor bike.

So I did some digging around in the Watch app on my phone and kinda fixed it.

Watch app -> Action Button-> First Press -> Open Workout

Now if I use the long press on my watch to change what the action button does, it defaults back to start outdoor bike again.

But at least there is a temporary fix to get it back to open workout and not start workout.

I am not sure how to send a bug report to Apple but that should know about this as it seems like its a bug.
