Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference to kick off June 10 at 10 a.m. PDT with Keynote address

The Keynote will be available to stream on apple.com, the Apple Developer app, the Apple TV app, and the Apple YouTube channel. On-demand playback will be available after the conclusion of the stream.

Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

does the Apple Watch calculate total calories burned for a day?

When I had my fit bit HR it would tell me the total amount of calories I burned for the day. Does the Apple Watch do that also? If so how do I find it? Thanks!

Hi


Yes, it does.


Active calories are reported via the Move ring in the Activity app and can also be viewed via the companion Activity and Health apps on the paired iPhone.


Total calories (active calories + resting calories = total calories) can be viewed via the Activity app on your iPhone:


On your iPhone, in the Activity app, go to: History (tab) > select a day > scroll down to the Move chart > swipe left on the chart to view Total calories.


Active and Resting calories can also be viewed via the Health app on your iPhone:


On your iPhone, in the Health app, go to: Health Data (tab) > Activity > Active / Resting Energy.


If you would like to submit a feature request to Apple in respect of being able to view total calories on your Apple Watch via the built-in apps, then you can do so here:
