[BUG] - Activity-Names get translated (in a strange way) #42

Describe the bug
Workout-Names seem to get translated.
This breaks API integrations that rely on consistent English workout type identifiers for data processing and categorization.

Steps To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Create a REST-API Automation
  2. Set Export Datatyp to "Workouts"
  3. Set Exportversion to "v2"
  4. Set Exportformat to JSON
  5. Take a look at the resulting JSON
    Before iOS 26 - a running workout resulted in a Workoutname like "Outdoor_Run" -
    Now with iOS26 the same activity results in "Outdoor_Ausführen" ("Ausführen" is German for "run" but in the sense of "executing/running a program", not running as a sport activity. The correct sports term would be "Laufen". But as mentioned before i think thees terms should not be translated.)

iOS/watchOS (please complete the following information):

  • Device: iPhone 16 pro
  • OS-Version: iOS 26.0.1 (23A355)
  • App Version: 8.3.2
  • OS Language: Deutsch

Additional context
The Problem started after upgrading to iOS26.
This affects multiple workouttypes (I observed Pool_Swim - got to "Schwimmbad_Schwimmen"; Outdoor_Cycling -> Outdoor_Radfahren)
