Workout profiles available for Apple Watch
The Wahoo app for Apple Watch offers a variety of workout profiles for activity recording, including
- Cycling (outdoor, uses GPS)
- Indoor Cycling
- Running (outdoor, uses GPS)
- Indoor running
- Strength, and
- Other.
Some workout profiles available for use in the Wahoo app for iOS are not available for the Apple Watch app.
Workout Profiles linked to your Wahoo account are shared between the Wahoo app for iPhone, the Wahoo app for Apple Watch, and (where relevant) any ELEMNT computers you have paired to the Wahoo app.
Because of this, any change you make to workout profile settings or page configurations will affect the workout profile in each of those contexts. If you plan to use a ROAM computer while cycling sometimes, and other time use the Wahoo app for Apple Watch, but want to use different settings or page layouts in each context, you may want to duplicate the Cycling workout profile, rename one of them, and customize it for the Apple Watch.
Workout Profiles Settings on Apple Watch
A limited number of settings for each workout profile can be changed on the Apple Watch. To access the Settings menu on the Apple Watch, select the gear icon in the upper right hand corner of the Ready to Record page.
Within the Settings menu, you can enable or disable the workout start Countdown, Auto Pause, and toggle Auto Lap between Distance and Time intervals.
For instructions on configuring Auto Lap for Distance or Time, see Recording an Activity on the Wahoo app for Apple Watch.
You can also edit individual page data fields on the Apple Watch. This is done by selecting the Settings button (gear icon) in the upper right hand corner of the Ready to Record page, and scrolling to Edit Pages.
Once selected, you will be taken to the stack of data pages. Tapping on an individual data field will bring up the list of data field types to choose from. Swiping left or right on then screen will scroll through the data field stack.
The maximum number of data fields per page is 6, and the minimum is 1. Using the digital crown (dial) on the Watch will zoom in or out.
