Weight lifting improvement

I'm new to COROS watches (Apex 4), so some of my concerns may already have solutions that I'm unaware of. I created a custom workout in the app and thought it worked really well. I do have a few suggestions that I think could make logging gym workouts better.

  • After finishing a set, the rep count should automatically default to the number of reps entered when creating the workout. Most of the time you should hit your target reps, so having to manually adjust the rep count after every set is annoying.
  • I find the frequent vibrations during workouts (and some other activities) a bit distracting. I'd still want it for notifications like calls and texts, but it would be great to have more control over it for activities or to control vibration settings through the Control Center.
  • I use metric units for distance and speed, but pounds for weights. Add weight unit preference in the units setting.
  • I noticed there's an option to skip an exercise and restore defaults to regain that exercise. However, when the gym is busy, I can almost never do my exercises in the right order. When starting a workout, I should be prompted to select an exercise; once all sets are completed, I should be prompted again to pick the next exercise.

The custom workout feature is nice, but it could use some slight improvements.
