- Tap Apps
- Find SmartWOD Timer and tap it

If the timer randomly switches back to Apple Fitness workout, even with all the permissions granted:
The Watch prioritises the workout which had the last "action", so if there are notifications coming in from Apple (e.g. "move ring closed"), the Apple Fitness app will be prioritised again. To avoid that, please try to press pause and then resume in your SmartWOD workout so that the timer would be in the foreground again. If you have problems with this, check out the page: How can I pause the workout?

For the best experience, please stop the Apple Watch fitness workout before you start the SmartWOD Timer. Don't worry, the SmartWOD workout will be tracked the same way like the Apple fitness workout: You will see your heart rate, burned calories and a workout summary in Apple fitness app on iPhone. If you have problems with any of this, please check out the following page: Why is my workout not tracked in the Apple fitness app?
