Apple Watch not recording jog in latest beta
PSA: I know it is beta (7.4 (18T4169f) ) but wanted to give people a heads up.
Every morning for the past 5+ years I take my dogs on a morning "walk". I always record it as a walk workout.
Typically it consists of walking briskly about 1/4 a mile to the greenbelt, where then I let the dogs roam a bit while I jog/run 1-1 1/4 miles back and forth. I then take the dogs for another 1 1/2 - 2 mile walk after that. It ends up being a bit over 3 miles and about 55 minutes total each morning.
Typically at the end of the "walk" I end up recording about 40 exercise minutes and about 300 movement points. However yesterday after the update I noticed it recorded less than 25 minutes exercise and about 180 movement points. So today I paid closer attention and saw that basically the jog/run it didn't record any exercise minutes or movement points - the active calories didn't change (looking at the watch right before I started and right after I finished). Something must be off/changed with the algorithm and it is not recording that as activity. I guess it assumes I'm going too fast for it to really be "walking" and ignores it. It does still record the steps and the distance though.
Anyway - just thought I would mention it. Maybe tomorrow I'll actually split it into 3 workouts (walk, run, walk) to see if it records each - but I've been doing it as a "walk" workout for a long time without any issues.
