Active Energy metrics not adding to Move Ring

Good Evening. I own an Apple Watch and an Oura Ring. I am unable to wear my Apple Watch during the day time but am able to use the Oura ring. I noticed the Oura ring updates many fields - specifically for me, Active Energy, Steps, and Sleep. I feel like the data updated in Active Energy should be closing my Move Ring but it is not. I have prioritized the Oura Ring in the Data Sources & Access section in Apple Health but this still doesnt move the move ring.


Am I doing something wrong or any guidance would be appreciated. TIA.

You may try some of these steps, please check after each step...


  1. Sometimes, a simple restart can resolve temporary software glitches. Turn off your iPhone, wait for a few seconds, and then turn it back on.
    1. Restart the device. That's it.
    2. Still not solved --> Force restart iPhone - Apple Support
  2. If the issue persists, you can try resetting all settings on your iPhone. This will not erase your data but will reset all personalized settings to their default values. Go to Settings > General > Transfer & Reset > Reset > Reset All Settings and confirm the action. Note that you will need to reconfigure your settings afterward. All settings—including network settings, the keyboard dictionary, the Home screen layout, location settings, privacy settings, and Apple Pay cards—are removed or reset to their defaults. No data or media are deleted.
    1. Reset All Settings: Return iPhone settings to their defaults - Apple Support:- Return iPhone settings to their defaults
    2. You can return settings to their defaults without erasing your content.
    3. If you want to save your settings, back up your iPhone before returning them to their defaults. For example, if you’re trying to solve a problem but returning settings to their defaults doesn’t help, you might want to restore your previous settings from a backup.
  3. Make sure you have the latest updates installed.
    1. Update Over-the-Air (OTA) —> Update your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support (IN)
    2. Update using iTunes/Finder —> Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support (IN)


If none of the above steps resolve the issue, it is recommended to reach out to Apple Support or visit an authorized service center for further assistance. They can provide specific guidance based on your device model and iOS version.

Fitness app fetches the Resting energy from the health App. If you do not want them you may delete them. See the pics below



If you are measuring the Active Energy then you ought to know the Resting Energy too. I would recommend that the best for you is not to use the Health or the Fitness App itself.



However, your may read below to understand what it means for you.


Total Energy used by your body = Resting Energy + Active Energy: You may get more insight into the Total Energy --> Energy Consumption Of The Human Body - Stanford University



Resting Energy

This is an estimate of the energy your body uses each day while minimally active. Additional physical activity requires more energy over and above Resting Energy (see Active Energy).



Active Energy

This is an estimate of energy burned over and above your Resting Energy use see (Resting Energy). Active Energy includes activity such as walking slowly, pushing your wheelchair and household chores, as well as exercise such as cycling and dancing. Your total energy use is the sum of your Resting Energy and Active Energy. 



Tap on Show all Health Data

Total 1,990 Cal (Shown in the Pic posted by you) = Active Energy + Resting Energy (From the Health App)


An example from my iPhone given below
