Activity ring not moving with daily workouts

I got a new Apple Watch Series 5 about a month ago. Activity App Exercise Ring does not count minutes accurately. Ring does not fill despite 2 hour workouts.

I followed all of the instructions in the Start Here suggestions above. I also unpaired and repaired the Apple Watch Series 5 GPS Cellular and the iPhone 11 Pro. My Apple Watch Series 1 had no problem with the Activity app an the iPhone 11 Pro. Very discouraging to purchase a high end watch and have poor Activity App results.


Walking again today and will see if Activity minutes register.

Thank you for your input.

Tried all fireyjack suggestions again after I first found those suggestions on the support pages. They DO NOT WORK for me! 80 minutes of steady exercise using the Outside Walk option on the Activity App results in 6 minutes of exercise? You could get that result sleeping wearing the Apple Watch. I am apparently unable to follow instructions or the software needs an overhaul.

VERY DISAPPOINTED,

Stephanie
