Since I upgraded my iPhone yesterday to iOS 13.5 Apple Watch Workouts (in my case walks) have stopped syncing their calories to MyFitnessPal. Any ideas of what I can do to fix that?
Also, is there a history of workouts I can read somewhere so I can enter missed ones manually?
Thanks.

I fixed the problem. It seems during the update to iOS 13.5 on my iPhone that the bluetooth connection to all my devices got disconnected. I turned bluetooth off and on and the Watch became connected and the workouts synced to the iPhone, and also to MyFitnessPal.
I wonder how many workouts the Watch itself maintains for later syncing.

Hi Doug,
You can see your previous workouts in the Activity app in the iPhone, in the Workouts tab at the bottom.
My Fitness Pal might need an upgrade to sync again, you’d need to contact them to confirm. Check it’s enabled to view your Health data. Settings>Privacy>Health
What did you discover in the privacy settings? I too am on the same iOS as you and my workouts appear fine since the update.
Hi. Looking at the Activity app in the iPhone, and clicking on the Workouts tab at the bottom, I only see workouts through yesterday morning, the last one I did before the iOS 13.5 upgrade.
I see all the ones prior to that.
Is there something else I can check to reconnect whatever got disconnected?
Thanks,
doug
Yes. It's been working until the upgrade. The problem seems to be that the Activity app on the iPhone is no longer syncing with the Workout app on the Watch.

I did that. But why does changing or setting the goal help with this problem?

Try this;
Close the Activity app on the iPhone
On your watch: go the Home screen
(single press of the Digital Crown) and tap on
the Activity app icon (coloured rings).
Press firmly on the screen > tap on Change
your Move Goal > change the goal.
Did you give myfitnesspal permission to enter data in the health app?,and you can enter workouts in the heath app manually.
