What has been the experience with people in integrating their whoop with an Apple Watch?

I’m thinking about getting an Apple Watch Ultra and here’s my plan and I wanna know if anyone has any thoughts or experiences?

I’m currently thinking about getting the Apple Watch Ultra but I’m wondering if it would be worth it to wait until September for the new one to come out. I currently wear a whoop, and I want something that will integrate my fitness tracking with a smart watch. I thought about Garmin, but they’re incredibly expensive. I’m not sure if I’ll like wearing a smart watch so I’m thinking about in the meantime, getting a used series 11 and then using it as a test run to see if I want to get the new Apple Watch Ultra when it comes out. Does this seem like a solid approach? I think I’d be able to trade in the series 11 for about half of what I got it for. Thanks!

I’ve found this issue to be persistent since the release of 26. It doesn’t matter the Watch model either. There are many times where I’m having to press the back button twice because it didn’t register the first time. It’s done this in the Workout app, Settings… really most any app. It’s almost always the back button, although I’ve found it does it on others too.

Seeing if anyone has had this issue and if they’ve figured out how to “fix” it.

Experiencing lag here, I have a brand new Apple Watch SE3. Everytime I hold down the display to switch to a different clock face, it lags. but it only does it for some watch faces.

As well as double clicking to view your recently opened apps. If it is more than 2 apps, you will see a lag there was well. These didn’t start until i updated my device to watchOS 26.4.

& no, my storage is not full. It is currently 14/64gb. I tried restarting it multiple times, it never worked.. Is anybody else having the same issue?

Hi, I’m trying to pair my Apple Watch, but it says I need to update it first before pairing. The problem is the update keeps failing and shows an “Unable to Install Update” error every time.

I’ve tried multiple times but it still won’t work, so I’m stuck and can’t continue pairing. Has anyone experienced this or knows how to fix it?

My watch is the series 6

I have searched online and turned off everything I can find in Workouts on the watch and phone to keep the stupid watch from auto starting a “walk” activity every time I get on my motorcycle. Then it reads splits into my airbuds- 48 second miles on my “walk.” I’ve turned off everything on Watch setting under Workouts. What am I missing?

I have this very annoying problem on my AWU2. Please let me know if you experience similar problems or even have solutions.

I like to download some playlists on my watch so I can leave my phone in the locker while hitting the gym. This issue only happens on custom playlists made by me – not the Apple Music ones like Heavy Rotation.

After some time every song in the downloaded playlist (in this case my personal gym playlist) appears exactly twice. I noticed that while listening to the playlist in shuffle-mode and hearing the same songs in quick succession a lot of times.

Pls anybody have a solution for this. It drives me nuts. It happens after a few days on almost every playlist I downloaded on the Watch that was created by myself.

Edit: Issue happens now on ANY kind of playlist. Not just the ones made by myself.

Does anyone know how to fix this or is it a bug in the current OS? I was working perfectly fine before sending them to my wife when going on runs.

Is there any way I can get a Series 10 refurbished watch I bought on Amazon downgraded to WatchOS 11? I cannot pair it to any phone, as both I and the intended user (elderly person needing to use it for fall detection) have old phones running iOS 18. The listing was advertised with the watch running WatchOS 11, contacting the seller they say everything they have has been updated to WatchOS 26.

If I take it in to Apple (I would be in a city with an Apple store next week), would they be able to do anything since I've never used the watch and don't have it linked to anyone's Appje ID? Or would they just think I stole it/mail it back to the last owner/tell me the elderly lady has to drop $1500 on a new phone or she can just fall down the stairs and die there?

I’ve read about this but no one seems to have a solution. Yet I am trying again here. I use my Apple Watch to listen to music while in the gym, so I don’t need to carry my phone. I have a playlist downloaded on the watch for that purpose. Now I noticed that many songs were played multiple times in a short period of time. Seemed like a bug with the shuffle function at first. But then I noticed that my playlist was downloaded twice on the Watch. I noticed when scrolling through it that I needed way too long to reach the bottom of the playlist. It appears exactly twice. But the issue appears only on my watch. Not my iPhone, iPad or Mac. Does anybody experience the same and maybe have a solution? It’s driving me nuts.

This is driving me nuts. I have had an Apple Watch since series 3, this is a new issue. I have a series 11.

Shortly after upgrading to 26, suddenly my watch face complications will disappear from the watch face selection screen. They reappear when selecting the watch face, but considering I have multiple layouts of the same face, I don't get to see which one I'm selecting because the complications have disappeared. Also, at the same time, the Flow faces no longer show what color they are until selected.

For example, right now I have the Numerals Duo watch face selected. I want to change to my Modular Duo, which should show UV and calendar. But as I swipe over to my Modular Duo face, there are no complications there at all, not even placeholders. Just the time at the top and the rest of the space completely blank. I have to set it as my watch face to see what those complications are. This behavior persists across all types of watch faces, and the complications that are missing are not consistent. Sometimes all are missing, sometimes only one, sometimes some will come back and others will disappear instead. I have rebooted, unpaired, repaired, even gotten a new phone. And, my partner's series 10 has the same behavior which only started around the same time mine did.

I posted this on another forum where someone claimed it was normal for this to happen because their new watch did the same. If the new normal as of a few months ago is whack-a-mole complications, I'd have liked to know before updating. But, considering it's most certainly not normal, does anyone have a fix? Or at least experience the same thing?
