(Here’s more on how you can use the Action Button on the Apple Watch Ultra). The Action Button solves this problem - you can pause an activity by holding the Action Button and either the side button or the crown.
I found trying to swipe the touchscreen, or manually press the side button and digital crown at the same time impossible with sweaty fingers, or when wearing running gloves. One of the main reasons I never loved running with my Apple Watch 7 was the lack of physical buttons.
And I was surprised to find that I didn’t miss my Garmin all that much. I swapped my Garmin Fenix 7 out for the Ultra, wearing it for all my activities for the week. Once I’d convinced my control-freak mind that the two watches were giving me similar readings. You can see the data below.ĭespite all my running friends commenting on how big the Apple Watch Ultra was, I soon got used to the large screen and loved how bright and clear the screen was, even in direct sunlight.
