Activity sharing not working at all

I fixed this issue by going to my iCloud/Apple ID on my iPhone.

I found that an email address I was using as secondary wasn't verified for use with iCloud. Once I activated it for iCloud, my sharing synchronised and I was able to add friends.

That sorted my issue personally but thought I would add this solution to the discussion.

The second step here does work it would appear to be an issue us @mac.com legacy users have! I've managed to fix it by signing out of iCloud and back in but as @icloud.com instead of @mac.com and all is good strange! Hope they get this sorted out soon, as a basic email suffix shouldn't cause such an issue!

With yesterday's software updates to iPhone and Watch, everything is now working again! Interesting enough, my sharing was blank on the Activity app on the phone after the update. It was reset. So, just had to add my sharing contacts again and that was it! No errors, no issues since! Yay!! Thanks Apple!

I am getting the same thing. My wife is getting the same thing. We both have unpaired our watches and paired as a new watch. She also got a message stating that my apple ID does not have a watch. I checked my cloud account and it seems to be fine. I spent 1.45 hours with apple care yesterday and problem is not resolved. I have an appointment this morning with upper tier support. Well let you know if successful.

I have the same issue. I've unpaired and repaired my watch. I've reset my phone. I have a gmail iCloud account sign in. What else is there??!

I can see 2 people on my iPhone, but they see 0% for me. I can send an invite to my wife and I never receive her invites. Please fix this Apple

Actually, I disagree... it's not the best comparison, but having the exact same goal doesn't make it a fair comparison either... I'm 5 ft tall, 110 lbs, so my goals are always less than my friends, and making them the same would be crazy... I'd never make it!

I have the same exact problem. We've tried everything. My husband's having no trouble at all. And he and my friend are still connected. But I became disconnected from them and can't even get an invite to go through. Frustrating!

I tried un-pairing and repairing multiple times with no luck. I updated the software on my phone and watch and again no luck.

Logging out of iCloud on my phone and logging back in was what finally fixed my issue.

Hopefully this helps others as well!

This is exactly what to do to resolve. I already shared activity with my partner however as soon as i updated to software version 3.2 this had dropped off. Trying to send a share request always then caused an error. My partner sent me one, i could see it but could never accept it. i tried unpairing (About an hour process) and that never worked. However the simple sign out of icloud that had @me.com then sign back in to iCloud again but this time with @icloud,com resolved the issue perfectly and now I can send and accept requests no problem and recommend anyone to do this.

Thanks for posting this resolve 🙂

THANK YOU THANK YOU! I have been to the Apple Genius bar twince now and no one could offer any help, but to send my watch in. Thought I would google the issue first before sending it off. Appreciate you posting your resolution.

I have this issue as well. Both iPhones on iOS10 and both apple watches on OS3 and it only works to see the other person progress on the iPhone activity app but it doesn't show at all on the watch...

Tried resets, delete share, add share again, nothing works so far...

Having the same issue...

On my phone/watch I see the two people I have added. Yet both show no activity on either device. However, one of those people, who only has me on their end, sees my activity just fine.

When he toggled the 'show/hide activity' on and then back off, I saw him go to Hidden, but now he stays there no matter what his toggle says. While he sees me on the phone, on his watch, my name doesn't even show up.
