Apple Watch workouts don’t show on iPhone

Hey,

I can’t get my outdoor runs, that I recorded using only my Apple Watch, to show up on my activity app on my iPhone.

Can someone help me out?

Thx in advance

The activity ring on my watch is full and on my phone it's completely empty, the health app doesn't show my activity either..

I don't know if this helps or not but I also can't unlock my phone with the apple watch, if i try to enable this feature, it just keeps loading and finally shows the message: unable to communicate with apple watch

Well that is a curious situation then. You can still see all of them on your watch, right? How is the ring closure looking then between them, is that different also? Finally, is the Health app showing the activities correctly?

You could also restart both devices, and then further check the following:

On your iPhone, go to: Settings > Privacy > Motion & Fitness - check that both Fitness Tracking and Health are enabled.
On your iPhone, in the Watch app, go to: My Watch > Privacy > check that both Fitness Tracking and Heart Rate are enabled.

If everything is already enabled, try toggling the option OFF and then back ON, just to make sure that the right value is really stored away and in active use.
