After the last update the screen stops updating and will go blank during updates. It takes several seconds after turning wrist for it to come back. IF you press button or tap screen it comes back. Basically, made the watch useless during the workout. I want to roll back update or get a fix from Samsung. I have also seem multiple other threads on reddit and other forums with same complaint.

I saw this on a reddit and tried it earlier and still having the same issue. Did it work for anyone else?

Disabled AOD and it fixes the issue for me... Hopefully a bug fix corrects this problem though as I much prefer leaving AOD on.

Kinda defeats the purpose to disable the aod if you are try to track your time and such

Yup, but it's up 5 seconds faster than waiting for the timer to update. Just a wrist flick away.

I have Galaxy Watch Ultra, updated it yesterday to the latest updates and, oh boy, how do i regret it. The workout function is totally useless now to monitor anything when AoD is turned on. It freezes and takes at least 5 seconds to unfreeze. It is so annoying that it makes me mad. The behaviour is exactly as described here, and i'm not going to spend hours trying every little fix community is looking for to fix what SAMSUNG devs broke with the update. So dissapointing.

I have the same problem, it's driving me crazy. I bought this watch just a month ago and I already regret it. How can they ruin a basic function with an update? 😞
