Hello fandeef,


We want to make sure you're able to find all the exact information and guidance you need. More information about your device and situation may help.

Best wishes!

Hello fandeef,


That looks like an unclosed activity ring. Since it is appearing in that same area, it looks like not much activity was recorded that day. For further assistance, we would recommend reaching out to Apple for further support.

Hi fandeef,


That is an indicator as to how close someone is to closing their Move ring. Here's some additional information that might be helpful:


"Move

The Move ring shows how many active calories you've burned so far. Complete your daily Move goal by burning active calories every day. Active calories, unlike resting, are ones that you burn by standing or moving around. Get help earning Move and Exercise credit.

For users 13 years and younger, the Move ring shows how many minutes the user has spent actively moving around."


You can take a look at the full resource here: Use the Activity app on your Apple Watch


Take care.
