The Action Button is a big feature of the Apple Watch Ultra, but after finally experiencing it, I can't help but feel underwhelmed.
When Apple announced the Apple Watch Ultra last September, I was excited about it. It wasn’t something that I needed at the time, but I loved that it’s pretty much the first big change for the Apple Watch product as a whole since the Apple Watch Series 5. The design of the Ultra is completely different from the Apple Watch Series 8, and — of course — it has the Action button.
Related While it’s fairly useful, I’m a little let down by the lack of customization with it, at least out of the box. Let me explain. For example, the Workouts app has it where you can just open the app, or you can set it to a specific workout you do often when you do the first press. If you pick Stopwatch, the first press starts it, another press will mark a lap, and if you press both the Action and side buttons together, it will pause the stopwatch.
I mean, what if I want to be able to map multiple actions to the button? For example, one press to open up Workouts and a double press to start a specific workout? And then a triple press to drop a waypoint. It looks like that’s impossible, at least right now. I basically can only choose one, and I’m stuck with it — unless I reconfigure it each time, and that’s a hassle.
I expect more with the iPhone 15 Pro We’re just a few months away from the iPhone 15 announcement in the fall, and rumors suggest that the iPhone 15 Pro is replacing the classic mute switch with a mute/action button instead. I was excited about this feature, and I still am. But I hope that Apple will give us more options with it than what you get on the Apple Watch Ultra.
