Apple’s sporty Watch Ultra just got more workout options thanks to the third-party app Slopes. Once installed, the watch will be able to track your skiing or snowboarding workout and can even identify which resort you are staying at. All of these features, however, are limited to paying subscribers.
Slopes also works with the Action button on the Watch Ultra. The key is exclusive to Watch Ultra, and Slopes is one of the few apps to take advantage of it so far. You can assign the button to start a workout through inclines with one press. To pause it you need to press the Action button and the side button simultaneously. Slopes also works with Siri, so voice commands are in the menu.
Plus, all Apple Watch devices can go into water lock mode when a Slopes workout is started to prevent accidental taps on the display with all that snow around. You can exit Water Lock mode by pressing and holding the Digital Crown for a few seconds.
