Is it possible to get Workout intervals and data from third party app via HealthKit or WorkoutKit?
If a user selects custom structured workout in the apple watch Workout app and records a run with intervals, how can my third party app pull in that data? I can obviously get the workout and health stuff like heart rate, but I cannot find how to save the intervals and the relevant data. The workout events are not seemingly helpful - segments are not obviously related to this. Is it possible? Is it only possible to have the third party app create a customworkout with metadata and then our third party app parses the interval distance/time based on our own structure? I think this stuff should be able to be accessed.

HKLiveWorkoutBuilder begincollection freezes in sim
When calling beginCollection on HKLiveWorkoutBuilder the function never completes and gets stuck. (On the second workout session, the first session works flawlessly) To reproduce: Run the MirroringWorkoutsSample on WatchOS https://developer.apple.com/documentation/healthkit/building-a-multidevice-workout-app. Start the workout and then end the workouts it should work perfectly fine the first time. Start the workout and end again, and you should see the problem, the workout doesn’t end.

Can 3 party apps obtain Intervals information created using WorkoutKit?
I am developing a running training app that coaches can use to create interval workout plans. I can use HKWorkout to get information about Splits similar to that in Fitness app, but I can't get information about Intervals. My idea is to show interval details when users view their completed custom interval workout plans. Can I use Healthkit (or another feasible method) to get the actual distance or time of exercise in intervals workout ? (I know the workoutPlan property, but it doesn't reflect the segments of a real interval training workout.) Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Enrollment Stuck in "Processing" for Organization
Hello everyone, I’m currently enrolling as an Organization from Albania and I’ve been stuck on the "Enrolling" status for 8 business days now. I have my D-U-N-S number sorted and everything was submitted. I sent an email last week to the support but I haven't heard back yet. I’ve already sent another support message 2 days ago but no reply so far. I’m curious to hear from others who have enrolled recently (especially in 2026): How long did your organization verification take? Did you receive a verification phone call, or was it just approved via email? For those in the Balkans/Europe, did you have to provide extra local business registry documents (like the QKB extract) manually? I’m trying to time my launch with my Google Play release, so I’m a bit anxious about the "black hole" of waiting. Any experiences or "nudge" tips would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

HealthKit Background Delivery and Device Reboot
I researched Apple HealthKit Background Delivery documentation but I couldn't find any information about does HK background delivery stay persistent after restarting the device? Do I need to enable background delivery for each health data type on a reboot? Can you enlighten me about this topic.

Watch SE OS 26.2 haptic heart rate monitor with live waveform.
Was able to use ai to help code my idea for a haptic heart rate monitor using watch se‘s ppg and accelerometer. Now if I could just get it on the App Store…
