I am not sure if my watch is syncing with my phone properly, when ever i exercise for more than 30 minute it always record less, and also the calories burned is never accurate, is there anyone else having this same issue.
Apple Watch, watchOS 2.2.1
Try updating your Apple Watch, if you're still experiencing issues, just reply
Hi
When comparing calorie data between other devices and their apps, keep in mind that Apple Watch reports active energy / calories, whereas many other fitness apps report total energy (resting + active calories).
To help improve the accuracy of steps and other activity-related estimations made by Apple Watch, you can calibrate your watch:
On your iPhone, in the Watch app, go to: My Watch (tab) > Privacy > Motion & Fitness > tap on Reset Calibration Data.
Calibrating your Apple Watch for improved Workout and Activity accuracy - Apple Support
For the best performance from the heart rate sensor (data from which is also used when estimating calories), during workouts ensure that you wear your watch snugly on the top of your wrist. Apple suggests that you consider tightening the band before starting a workout and loosening it again afterwards:
Your heart rate. What it means, and where on Apple Watch you’ll find it. - Apple Support
Activity estimations also depend on your personal information. To check that this has been entered accurately and to update it over time:
On your iPhone, in the Watch app, go to: My Watch > Health > Edit (upper-right).

In order to credit progress towards your daily Exercise goal, the Activity app aims to identify activity that equals or exceeds the intensity of a brisk walk. This applies both during general daily wear and when recording workouts via the Workout app. It is possible that your exercise (whether recorded via the Workout app or just via the Activity app) is not meeting this requirement for the full duration of your activity.
The definition of a brisk walk varies by person and depends on your personal information. To check that your personal information is accurate, follow the steps in my previous reply.
Calibrating your watch improves the accuracy of activity-related estimations including Exercise goal progress - my previous reply again refers.
If you would prefer to receive Exercise credit for the full duration of a workout, regardless of its intensity level, track it via the Workout app and choose Other as the activity type. This will credit one minute of Exercise for each full minute of the workout. Active calories will be estimated at a rate equivalent to a brisk walk or based on data recorded by the heart rate sensor, whichever is higher.
Thank you hon, I will
Now you have broken it down , this make sense. I am use to Microsoft band, this is a little different. I will do what you suggested thank you so much
You are most welcome! 🙂
Daily workout
