Hi, You are correct in that you did not say about triple-tapping on the screen. That was someone else who was trying to help, so I mentioned that so you did not try to do it and find out that it wasn’t what you were looking for. Yes, using Siri as Dave mentioned is totally an option. Alternat

Hello, Many thanks for the feedback on this. The option which works best for me is Mary Otten’s idea of using Siri to end the workout. I start VO on the watch, say Hey Siri, and when Siri responds say End Workout. So far this has worked every time and Siri even congratulates me on finishing the
