How to pause a workout on Apple Watch

If you're in the middle of a workout with Apple Watch and something comes up, you can easily pause it.

For most of us, our workouts are timed and we want the data our Apple Watch collects to be as accurate as possible. But what happens if we get a phone call, or something urgent comes up that interrupts the middle of a workout? If you're using the built-in Workout app, pausing your workout is just as easy as completing it. Here's how!

How to quickly pause a workout on Apple Watch

  2. Tap on Pause.
  3. You can confirm your workout is paused by looking in the upper left hand corner.
  4. When you're ready to resume your workout, press firmly on the screen again.
  5. Tap on Resume.
