How We Pause or End Workouts on Apple Watch Changed? Or Glitch?

I can no longer swipe right on my Apple Watch S11 to pause or end a workout. Nothing seems to work. It’s on 27.0.1. Anybody know what chnaged since the last update?

If swiping doesn’t work on your Series 11, try pressing the Side button + Digital Crown together to pause. Then restart the Watch and test again.


More Info: Apple Watch workout controls

I have the same problem. Sometimes it won't even start a workout. I can start it by saying, "Hey Siri," and I can end it by saying that.
