Has anybody been having trouble with their exercise ring not closing correctly? I walked for 70mins today and it only recorded 13mins of exercise. Then, I rode my bike outside yesterday for 45mins and it only recorded 15mins of it. So annoying.
Apple Watch Series 4, watchOS 5
Your watch has the detect your heart rate raise. So lets say you went for a walk for 15 minutes on flat terrain and your heart rate didn't go up a lot, you're only gonna get like 6 minutes of that recorded into the exercise ring. Now if you went for a hike up a hill and you were getting your heart rate racing for the full 70 minutes then you would get the 70 minutes of exercise recorded.
Hope this makes sense.
Please note that I'm not totally certain that this is how it works but please read the following article from apple for more info.

Thank you! This makes sense was very helpful!!
The same thing happened to me today. Up until today, it has been working great. I rode the bike for 32 minutes. The exercise app showed it and I selected done but my ring only showed 10 minutes.
