HKWorkoutSession.sendToRemoteWorkoutSession doesn't report success or failure
We are seeing an issue where sending data using the asynchronous method HKWorkoutSession.sendToRemoteWorkoutSession(data: Data) will never return in some cases (no success nor failure). This issue is happening for roughly 5% of Workouts started and will stay broken for the whole workout. The other 95% of the workouts, the connection works flawlessly. This happens on both watchOS 10 and 11, and with phones running iOS 17 or 18. The issue is quite random and not reproducible. Our app has thousands of workouts a day that use the workout session workout data send, with constant messages being send every few seconds. In some of those 5% cases the "sendToRemoteWorkoutSession" will throw way later, like 30+ minutes later, if the watch app is awake long enough to capture a log of a failure. Our code uses the same flow as in the sample project: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/healthkit/workouts_and_activity_rings/building_a_multidevice_workout_app Here is some sample code, which is pretty simple. Setup code: let workoutSession = try HKWorkoutSession(healthStore: healthStore, configuration: configuration) workoutSession.delegate = self activeWorkoutSession?.startMirroringToCompanionDevice { success, error in print("Mirroring started on companion device: \(success), error: \(error)") } workoutSession?.prepare() then later we send data using the workout session: do { print("Will send data") try await workoutSession.sendToRemoteWorkoutSession(data: data) print("Successfully sent data") // This nor the error may be called after waiting extensive amounts of time } catch { print("Failed to send data, error: \(error)") // This nor the success may be called after waiting extensive amounts of time } So far, the only fix is to restart the phone and watch at the same time, which is not a great user experience. Is anyone else seeing this issue? or know how to fix this issue?

Stands not detected
I have FB12696743 open since July 21, 2023 and this happened again today. I get home at approx 10 mins after the hour, walk appox 50 ft across my yard, up 5 steps into my house, let the dog out and pace on my deck watching the dog, go back in the house walk around the kitchen while preparing dinner. A total of about 200 ft. I sit down about 35 past the hour and start to eat and at 10 mins to the next our and I get the reminder to stand. On the other side I wake up at 5 mins to hour. Walk 8 steps to the bathroom and successfully achieve the stand for that hour. WHY!?!?!? 😁🤣

Adding workoutEffortScore to HKWorkout
I'm trying to hook into the new workoutEffort score supported in iOS 18, I am collecting this information from users when they submit their workout and trying to add a sample to the HKWorkout in the same manner as I've been adding other samples like bodyweight, calories burned, etc. I'm receiving the error: HKWorkout: Sample of type HKQuantityTypeIdentifierWorkoutEffortScore must be related to a workout I tried adding the samples using HKWorkoutBuilder.add([samples]) as which has been working perfectly for calories burned & bodyweight, but I am receiving the above error for workoutEffortScore As a second approach, I tried adding the sample after I called finishWorkout on the HKWorkoutBuilder and received back the HKWorkout object using HKHealthStore.add([samples], to: HKWorkout) and am still receiving the same error! I don't know otherwise how to relate a sample to a workout, I thought those were the APIs to do so? I'm using Xcode 16.0 RC (16A242) and testing on an iOS 16 Pro simulator

HKAnchoredObjectQuery updateHandler stops working with error
Hi! I am using the HKAnchoredObjectQuery to first get a snapshot of the initial results, and then trigger an updateHandler. I need to handle the initial results and the updates separately, which is why I implemented two completions. When I test the code, it works for a while. New and deleted samples trigger the updateHandler. However, after a while there appears an error: [connection] nw_read_request_report [C2] Receive failed with error "Software caused connection abort" Followingly, the updateHandler will stop getting triggered when I add updates in Apple health. Anyone have experience with this? func getMostRecentSample(for sampleType: HKSampleType, anchorKey: String, completion: @escaping (HKQuantitySample?, Error?) -> Swift.Void, updateHandler: @escaping (HKQuantitySample, Error?) -> Swift.Void) {     // If it is the first initialization, anchor is passed as nil     var anchor: HKQueryAnchor? = nil // Check for previous saved anchor in userdefaults     if UserDefaults.standard.object(forKey: anchorKey) != nil {       let data = UserDefaults.standard.object(forKey: anchorKey) as! Data       do {         guard let newAnchor = try NSKeyedUnarchiver.unarchivedObject(ofClass: HKQueryAnchor.self, from: data) else {           print("Could not parse anchor to HKQueryAnchor type")           return         }         anchor = newAnchor       } catch {         print("Error retreiving anchor from UserDefaults")       }     }     let query = HKAnchoredObjectQuery(type: sampleType,                      predicate: nil,                      anchor: anchor,                      limit: HKObjectQueryNoLimit                       ) { (query, samplesOrNil, _, newAnchor, errorOrNil) in       guard let samples = samplesOrNil as? [HKQuantitySample] else {         fatalError("*** An error occurred during the initial query: \(errorOrNil!.localizedDescription) ***")       }       if let anchor = newAnchor {         do {           let data = try NSKeyedArchiver.archivedData(withRootObject: anchor as Any, requiringSecureCoding: false)           UserDefaults.standard.set(data, forKey: anchorKey)         } catch {           print("Error retreiving anchor from UserDefaults")         }       }       completion(samples.last, nil)     }           // Setting up long-running query     query.updateHandler = { (query, samplesOrNil, _, newAnchor, errorOrNil) in       guard let samples = samplesOrNil as? [HKQuantitySample] else {         fatalError("*** An error occurred during an update: \(errorOrNil!.localizedDescription) ***")       }       if let anchor = newAnchor {         do {           let data = try NSKeyedArchiver.archivedData(withRootObject: anchor as Any, requiringSecureCoding: false)           UserDefaults.standard.set(data, forKey: anchorKey)         } catch {           print("Error retreiving anchor from UserDefaults")         }       }       if let sample = samples.last {         updateHandler(sample, nil)       }     }     self.healthStore.execute(query)   }

[WatchOS] Error while trying to insertRouteData into HKWorkoutRouteBuilder
I've ran into an error with the insertRouteData function of the HKWorkoutRouteBuilder that I can't seem to find any information on. The error is "Unable to find location series 1A193D3B-AFF5-41D8-A967-B1BE08D9F543 during data insert.". It seems to only happen when trying to insert very long routes, in the most recent case it was a 5 hour bike ride with 5900 samples. I save all the route data in a sqlite table as backup and after checking out the data there isn't any red flags as to why it would not insert correctly. Has anyone seen this before and could offer some insight or point me in the right direction to find the source of the error?
