Breathe Animation doesn't animate!

Hi,


I use the Breathe animation on my apple watches, versions 4 ,5, and 6 a lot.


Sometime months ago the animation stopped working on all of the watches. I don't recall if it the animation stopped working on all of the watches at the same time.


I went to the Apple Watch app on my iPhone 11 and then went to the Breathe settings and it is set to "prominet".


I really like the animation and want to get it back. Any suggestions appreciated.

Apple Watch, watchOS 4

Hello Patrick Murphy,


We understand that the Breathe application on your Apple Watch isn't providing the animation to indicate when to breathe out and in. Good job adjusting the haptic intensity to Prominent, and we're glad to provide assistance.


Test the issue after each pair of steps:


Restart your Apple Watch and paired iPhone starting with the iPhone first

Restart your iPhone - Apple Support

Restart your Apple Watch - Apple Support


Make sure both your Apple Watch and iPhone are up to date

Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

Update your Apple Watch - Apple Support


Unpair your Apple Watch from your iPhone, then set it up again

Unpair and erase your Apple Watch - Apple Support

Set up your Apple Watch - Apple Support


Feel free to get back to us with any questions or problems you may have.


All the best.
