Anyone else having a problem with activity app on the Apple Watch not syncing with iPhone Activity app? My apple watch is recording my activity but when I open my activity app on the iphone, it's blank. I even uninstalled every tweak and it's still not syncing. Please help!
 
Strange that two people have the same problem and one doesn't. You have 9.02 and not iOS 8 jailbroken?

Yes, I am on iOS 9.0.2 jailbroken iPhone 6s+. I do have an encrypted backup that may be helping sync the data. I know you have to have an encrypted backup to sync back over health app data if you ever do a restore.
 
iP6 on jailbroken 9.0.2 and syncing fine here too.

I also use an encrypted backup, but I don't know what that would have to do with the sync between the phone and watch.
 
I encrypt my backup and still have this issue. I even repaired my watch and it's still not syncing.

On the Watch app have you tried, General > Reset > Reset Sync Data? Sometimes my calendar appointments don't sync to the calendar complication and this solves it for awhile.

I just tried clicking it. It just highlights and doesn't do anything else. Is it suppose to open a popup window that warns you that you will reset your data? I know if I click reset home screen layout or erase apple watch, a popup window appears to confirm my action.

No, it doesn't open any window, it just does it. There's no warning since it's just resyncing everything.

Ok. Well that didn't work either. Argh! My iPhone activity app is still blank while my watch app is still recording my daily activity.
