Removing Apple Watch Activity Goals I mistakenly set an activity goal on my watch on the “outdoor walk” workout. It’s now permanently set at 1hr 14 mins. I can change this to different times or calories or distance. But I can’t workout how to remove a workout goal. Please help.

How to delete an Apple Watch activity goal I am not even sure how this happened, but my watch set a 5 minute activity goal for strength training. Now, it pings me when I am halfway to that goal and achieve that goal, but I consistently do way more than 5 minutes, so this is annoying to me. I cannot figure out how to delete this goal on the watch or in the Health or Fitness apps on my phone. Any advice on how to fix this issue?

How to reset OPEN GOAL in workout app. My Apple Watch insists on 4 miles for my outdoor walk. How do I change back to "open" goal? I hit the three little dots in the upper right corner, and then the "distance” option, (then I can scroll the distance up or down) but it just resets for that workout, then defaults to 4 miles for the next workout. This is a problem mentioned many times in this support community, but none of the answers understand the problem. Very frustrating.

Make sure you are wearing the watch;

On the workout type tap on the 3 dots in the top right corner and then tap on "Open" then start a workout and let it run for at least a minute then when you've finished tap on "End".

Scroll down to the bottom and tap on "Done"

The watch will return to open goal.
