Watch not recording exercise times correctly since upgraded phone.

Anyone else experienced this, gone from iPhone 8 to 11. Synched my watch back up, exercise times is way out compared to before. Today I did a 48 min walk, that’s recorded. However on the exercise ring it saying I’ve done 27 mins. Missed 20 mins somewhere 🤷‍♀️

help I use the exercise app a lot!!

Apple Watch Series 5, watchOS 7

To earn 1 minute of exercise credit(green ring);

Travel a full minute at a brisk walking pace 3.3 mph or 18 minutes per mile approx.

or

5.3kph or 11.3 minutes per kilometer.

Raise your heart rate to approx 75% of your maximum.

When you're at around or above this heart rate and speed for the entire minute you'll receive 1 exercise minute credit.

If you pause or slow down during this minute then you won't get any exercise credit for that minute.
