I signed out of my Apple ID and lost all of my fitness activity. How do I retrieve it? I am missing years worth of activity and when I tried to re-pair the watch from the back up they only had a 2019 back up available.

How do I get all of my lost activity back on my Apple Watch? When I signed out of my Apple ID on my phone I lost all the activity history.

Apple Watch Series 4, watchOS 5

Hello blove89,


Being able to retrieve your activity data is important and you've come to a great place for help! To confirm, have you signed back in to your Apple ID on the iPhone? If not, you'll want to sign back in via Settings > [Sign in to your iPhone]. Once signed in, any content synced to iCloud would return to your iPhone and Apple Watch. You'll also want to verify if the activity is shown correctly in the Fitness app on the companion iPhone. You can also find great information about the Activity app on your Apple Watch and the Health apps via the following links.


Use the Activity app on your Apple Watch

Use the Health app on your iPhone or iPod touch


If the activity data doesn't show in the Fitness app on the companion iPhone after those steps, you'll want to reach out to Apple next. You can find their contact details via the following link.

Take care!
