My Vo2 max stopped updating several months ago.
All the correct settings are in place.
is there a way to completely reset health from scratch?
i don’t mean recalibrate, I’ve done that.
I’ve also unpaired my Apple Watch and re paired to no avail.
I’ve done plenty of outdoor walks and runs over 20 minutes so it’s not that.

Which Apple Watch are you using?
Did you also try to delete all health data on your iPhone in Settings -> Apps -> Health -> Data -> Data Access & Devices -> Health -> scroll down -> Delete All Data from "Health"?
If this does not work, contact the official Apple Support and ask them to look into your personal data and settings.

Did you already report your issue directly to Apple Techs by using the Feedback link?
I'm having the same issue. I run 4 days a week and my series 7 stopped updating V02Max and advanced metrics like ground contact time, vertical oscillation and stride length at the same time.
I spoke with apple support. The tech looked at diagnostics for the hardware and confirmed no issue there. Since I had already checked all the permissions and restarted everything, he recommended unpairing the watch and setting it up new. I ran this morning and the advanced metrics are still not showing. V02max would take some time to update but the other stats SHOULD be available in real time while running. So something is broken. Tech thought it might be a software issue - nothing to do but wait it out. I'm just bummed because it's racing season and I used those stats to dial in my running form.
Did you already try the suggestions mentioned in this discussion?
Reset activity on watch - Apple Community
Apple can only made aware of issues, if all effected users provide Feedback directly via the Feedback links.
And, posts in these communities will be closed automatically after a certain time, no matter if a question has been answered successfully and the problem has been solved or not.
I have the same problem since August 19th on my Apple Watch. Elevation gain also stopped being tracked in my runs.
A lot of people are reporting this issue and no one found a solution. I tried everything except factory reset of my phone (iPhone 16 Pro now running on iOS 26.0.1)
Searching the forums I can see we’re far from the only ones.
i even went as far as deleting all history including back ups of workouts which meant I lost a 3yr streak but it still doesn’t work.
it’s like Apple know about the situation but are unwilling to investigate as I regularly see these posts locked without a resolution.
Yes I’ve tried that, no luck unfortunately.
Unfortunately, try again. What is the app you are looking into, I haven’t see the VO2, application and what you are seeking for. BUT THE SOS was noticeable!
I’m using Apple Watch Series 7 paired to iPhone 17 pro max. It was previously paired to iPhone XS Max which worked for 3 years then stopped updating Vo2 max.
It’s never worked on the new phone.
This could be related to the new iPhone 17 Series as well.
Has your watch already been upgraded to watchOS 26.0.2 ?
