Monthly Activity Challenge

I got my Apple Watch for Christmas and haven't received a Jan 2021 challenge! I never got one in Dec either, which made more sense as I didn’t set up my watch until the end of the month. But I assumed I’d get one for Jan. Anyone else? Both my watch and phone are updated. Does it need to get to know my trends before creating a personalized monthly challenge?

The first (and simplest) thing to try if something isn’t working right is to restart your Apple Watch and its paired iPhone. If necessary (device not responding), try a forced restart. Both methods can be found here:

If that doesn't help, the next steps would be to unpair and pair your watch again and restore from the backup just created. This deletes all temp and corrupted files and re-indexes the file system.

You may just have to be patient.
