how do I only get the move ring and get rid of the standing and exercise rings

I recently got an Apple Watch and I used the fitness app on it and I don’t like the standing and exercise rings because they feel inaccurate so how do I remove them?

Hi ezrat, unfortunately you cannot completely disable the Exercise and Stand rings. You can try some/all of the following:


Set activity reminders

  1. On your iPhone, open the Watch app. 
  2. Tap the My Watch tab, then tap Activity.
  3. Change your notifications and reminders. For example, you can disable stand reminders, daily coaching and goal completions reminders.

Change your Exercise and Stand goals

You can set large Exercise and Stand goals, which will ensure that you don't get Goal Completions reminders.


Sorry there isn't a more straightforward answer right now. You can suggest this to the team using the Feedback - Watch - Apple page. If a lot of customers want that option and communicate it, there is a higher chance you might see it on a future watchOS update.
