Fitness data not updating when not on wifi

So my Apple Watch and iPhone won’t update the fitness data when on cellular network. I’ll do a workout at the gym, but then the data isn’t uploaded until I’m on wifi. Another instance is where I’m out all day, no wifi, I’ll get home and then get all these notifications at once about my friends activity rings and workouts.

Hi David_a_s_j,


It sounds like your Apple Watch is not using cellular data for Activity. If that's the case, let's check the following.


On your iPhone, tap on the Watch app, tap Cellular and make sure cellular is activated for Activity.
