Runners: Does the auto-pause feature work for you?

[AndrewPf]

I've got the auto-pause feature turned on for my runs, but I'm not sure if it's actually working yet.  Obviously city running hits a bunch of lights, and it would be cool to have the auto-pause feature working as well as it did on the Apple Watch series 2.  I've given my Ionic up to 5 seconds before pausing a run using the side button.  I've restarted and synced several times, just to be sure mine is up to date. 

How long do you typically have to wait until it detects a pause in your running??

Hopefully it's not a crime to re-up my own post...

The auto-pause/start feature has not been working at all.  The auto-pause never happens, and the auto-start will go if I'm waiting at a light moving my hands to my hips.  

Has anyone tried to use this feature, and was able to use it successfully?

I had Auto-Pause set to "On" during my first two runs; I didn't pause during the first run and saw no issues.  I did pause during my second run and instead of subtracting the time I was paused from my total time, it actually split my run into two separate runs.  I turned it off immediately after the run and haven't had an issue since.  🙂

I didn't even realize they'd finally added this feature! This is an available feature on the Blaze? If so, where do you find the setting to enable it?
