I'm very exciting about the Apple Watch Ultra, and I'd like to build in support for the action button in my app. There seems to be no information available, any idea how to do this?

Documentation should be available soon! If your app is a workout app, you'll be able to use the AppIntents API to start a workout and offer subsequent actions as well.

Any update on this documentation? I have seen a change in the HIG that mentioned it but nothing in the developer documentation.

Also, as the AppIntents API is Swift only, how would I use the button with an app written in Objective C? Thanks.

Seems like the documentation is online now: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appintents/actionbuttonarticle?changes=latest_maj_5
