As the subject and location suggests, my watch during the middle of a workout has started repeatedly pausing the workout and saying "Seems like you've stopped. Finish workout?" And it does not matter how much I'm moving, how high my heart rate is, or how many times I tell it to resume. The watch did not do this last month and it does not matter what workout I'm doing. Whether I'm walking, running, lifting weights, rowing, doing a dynamic workout, about every 20 seconds to 2 minutes this notification pops up.
I've done everything I can from restarting the watch, resetting the watch, checking for updates, going into each exercise choice and turning off "Auto Pause", going into the settings and turning off "Activities to detect" on both the phone Samsung Health app and in the watch. I've even called Samsung tech support and the man I talked to was saying that it must be an app causing it but i've turned off all app notifications except messaging apps.
The only thing I can think that might be going on is I cannot change "Auto detect workouts" in the Advanced option of the Samsung Health app settings.
Once an update came out around May my watch does not detect my wrist thru tattoos causing this error.I have fixed this by turning off wrist detection and it has been working fine for months. I have created multiple forums on how I confirmed this and Samsung keeps taking it down or combining them with this forum that says" resolved".
Yes. It's something with there sensors and tattoos. I ran troubleshooting tool on the watch and confirmed when it is over tattoo it will not register....
Same thing happened to me. Turned off the wrist detection and it seemed OK but then did it on "other workout" when I was on a treadmill and then "rowing workout" whilst mid row on a rowing machine. Sort it out samsung!
I have the same issue It is very very annoying, especially when I'm doing yoga and I'm having an old poses for a minute or two. Please allow us to turn this off! I have a Samsung watch5
