Track daily activity with Apple Watch (2024)

The Activity app Track daily activity with Apple Watch (1) on your AppleWatch keeps track of your movement throughout the day and encourages you to meet your fitness goals. The app tracks how often you stand, how much you move, and how many minutes of exercise you do. Three rings in different colors summarize your progress. The goal is to sit less, move more, and get some exercise by completing each ring every day.

The Fitness app on your iPhone keeps a record of your activity. If you’ve tracked at least six months of activity, it displays daily trend data for active calories, exercise minutes, stand hours, stand minutes, walk distance, cardio fitness, walking pace, and more. In the Fitness app on iPhone, tap Summary, then scroll to Trends to see how you’re doing compared to your average activity.

Siri: On supported models, say something like: “How far have I walked today?” or “How are my Activity Rings?” (Not available in all languages or regions.)

Note: Your AppleWatch is not a medical device. For important information about using the wellness apps safely, see Important safety information for AppleWatch.

Get started

When you set up your AppleWatch, you’re asked if you’d like to configure the Activity app. If you choose not to, you can do so later when you open the Activity app for the first time.

  1. Go to the Activity app Track daily activity with Apple Watch (2) on your AppleWatch.

  2. Use the Digital Crown to read the Move, Exercise, and Stand descriptions, then tap Get Started.

Check your progress

Go to the Activity app Track daily activity with Apple Watch (3) on your AppleWatch at any time to see how you’re doing. The Activity app displays three rings:

  • The red Move ring shows how many active calories you’ve burned.

  • The green Exercise ring shows how many minutes of brisk activity you’ve done.

  • The blue Stand ring shows how many times in the day you’ve stood and moved for at least one minute per hour.

If you specified that you use a wheelchair, the blue Stand ring becomes the Roll ring and shows how many times in the day you’ve rolled for at least one minute per hour.

Turn the Digital Crown to see your current totals—keep scrolling to see your progress for each of your rings, your total steps, total distance, flights climbed, and activity history.

An overlapping ring means you exceeded your goal. Tap Track daily activity with Apple Watch (5) to see how you’re doing for the week.

See your weekly summary

  1. Go to the Activity app Track daily activity with Apple Watch (6) on your AppleWatch.

  2. Tap Track daily activity with Apple Watch (7).

  2. Tap the Activity rings, tap Track daily activity with Apple Watch (8), then tap a date.

Track daily activity with Apple Watch (9)

In the Fitness app on iPhone, the Trends area shows you daily trend data for active calories, exercise minutes, stand hours, walking distance, stand minutes, cardio fitness, walking pace, and running pace. Trends compares your last 90 days of activity to the last 365.

To see more detail, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the Fitness app on your iPhone.

  2. In the Trends area, tap a trend to see the history.

If the Trend arrow for a particular metric points up, then you’re maintaining or improving your fitness levels. If an arrow points down, your 90 day average for that metric has started to decline. To help motivate you to turn the trend around, you’ll receive coaching—“Walk an extra quarter of a mile a day,” for example.

See your awards

You can earn awards for personal records, streaks, and major milestones using your AppleWatch. To see all your awards, including Activity Competition awards and awards you’re making progress towards, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the Activity app Track daily activity with Apple Watch (10) on your AppleWatch.

  2. Tap Track daily activity with Apple Watch (11).

  3. Tap an award category (like Monthly Challenges), then tap an award to learn more about it.
