I'm afraid there is a complete misunderstanding on what is going on here. Your last statements have confused me. Now you are referring to a number of different things with activity and health. I though you were referring to a single complication in that photo, however it seems you are looking at much more. The Watch face you are looking at in the photo is the Infograph. Do you have the 40mm or 44mm case size? You are looking at numerous complications displayed, in all 4 corners of the Watch face, then the 4 areas of the inner Watch face. These can be complications for Apple apps or features, or they can be for 3rd Party apps if they are programmed for complications.


I'm no longer sure if you are referring to a single complication, which is what you seemed to ask at first, but then in your last post you mention something about an app getting things from activity and health. If you have the Watch, which it seems you do, go to your Face Gallery and take a look at the different complications available for that Watch face, and then you can check out other apps in the App Store to see if they offer other complications you feel are necessary.


And you can share with Apple your distain with their developers by going to the Feedback link at www.apple.com/feedback/watch.html

Sorry I missed this earlier, seems the AQI has been added for Canada for iOS 14.7 so it may be available in the new watchOS as well although the release notes for watchOS 7.6 does not indicate it. This is from the iOS 14.7 release notes.


  • Air quality information is now available in Weather and Maps for Canada, France, Italy, Netherlands, South Korea, and Spain

The photo that you shared is the Infograph face. If you go to the Watch app on your iPhone, you can find it there. I just tapped on the first one, in the list. Understand I'm in the US, so we have the Weather complications. If you tap on a complication, scroll down to Weather and AQI is there. But in finally adding the complication to a face and putting that on my Watch, it isn't the one you are showing. This one that is marked Air in the photo is obviously something else. Unless you are referring to something different. Is that the complication you are referring to, or did I guess wrong?
