what watch model is this and OS version?
never seen anything like this, I bike every day and my rings update maybe with a few seconds delay, but that's it. When I end my workout I get notifications like long move streak etc also within seconds, never seen it any different.
how long has this been going on?
I don’t get that at all. They happen together for me.
Hi. This is what came up on mine.
PS. It's hard to believe the model I'm wearing in 2021. My current Watch comes from the very first batch from 2015 series (and the battery is amazing still!).

AW4, current OS on everything. It all used to update the rings pretty much immediately, and then something happened. Nothing updated for about a week, and I went into the Health app, and was able to get things to update again, but it's now late, usually. It freaks me out when the Move ring update happens quicker now. If I ride outside, it seems to update quicker, but I can't find any reason why or how that could happen. All of the apps I rely on are sources for the Health app. When I'm done riding, and the Exercise ring is updated, the apps I use are listed int he bottom of the Activity app. It's getting *something* from them, but why the Move ring isn't budging is odd. Often, if I go into the Activity app on my iPhone, it pops across and Move is updated, but also regularly, lately, it doesn't. So damned frustrating... I don't get it... What changed a year or so ago? It used to be *BING* *BING* *BING* Strava, Garmin Connect, Activity rings... Now? *BING* Strava *BING* Connect *BING* Exercise ring, and the wait starts...
so you are using the Strava or Garmin app on your watch to track your ride?
Here is what I would do:
Track a workout with the indoor or outdoor cycling app, the native watch workout app and see what behavior you're seeing.
I suspect that your 3rd party app is the cause, maybe not the app itself but possibly there is some corruption in your health data. For reference, I have 5 years of workout data with my watch and my heart data on the phone is ~ 2.1GB so there is a potential for corruption.
For my indoor cycling, I just use the indoor cycling app on the phone, works fine for me.
for my mountain biking, I've used Mapmyride for at least 7 or 8 years on my phone, when I started using my AW 5 years ago, I used the outdoor cycling app on the watch AND the mapmyride app on the phone, simultaneously, cause I wanted to keep the record in mapmyride updated.
What I do now is, on the phone, after the ride, I'm telling the app that I'm done. Because I have no cell connection where I stop, I drive home and then "save" my workout. after saving, when I open the fitness app on the phone, both workouts show up, without any noticeable delay ...
And. I assume you are aware that you can change which app writes to your health data and in which priority within your Health app? That's something to check the settings too to see if there is something not right.
Actually neither. The ride is tracked by either Zwift, or TrainerRoad. Outdoor rides are tracked by the Garmin bike computer.
I haven't ridden outdoors in three months, or more. I probably need to do an outdoor ride to see what happens. I swear they did update quickly, but it's been so long...
Third party apps? I can't tell where some of the data is coming from; I think. When the data was totally not showing up, I enabled multiple sources, as least I think I did. I haven't been able to find and definitive document that tells how to setup, and maintain the data sources that the Activity, and Health app use, and need.
Which 'cycling app'? Do you mean the 'indoor cycling' activity, oh, you are using the iPhone? I used to use the Indoor Riding(?) selection in the 'Workout' app on the watch. It doesn't read the telemetry from my bike. If it did, it might work better.
MapMyRide works great for outdoor rides...
So, the rest of your post, that I value for sure, I don't want it to seem I'm dismissing it at all, but in the pre-pandemic daze, I would arrive, turn everything on, make sure things are synced with my Garmin bike computer, start the ride on the Garmin, ride my ass off, or not, but afterwards 'close' the ride, and by the time I got home, I had attaboys for the ride.
Riding inside, as I said, the rides don't show up in the Activity app, but actually do show up in the two apps that the 'Heath' app is supposed to be using for data sources, which doesn't make sense. The data *should* be there, the sources are listed. *shrug*
I have wiped the iPhone, and wiped my Apple Watch too. I'm kinda stumped. Apple would have me do the same stuff I've done, so not very helpful. I guess I need to just get used to it. Mystified...
On my watch it says double your move goal 24 times, yet on my phone it says close all 3 rings 17 times. ?♂️
anyone else notice this?

I’ve gone from 3.8 to 2.7 average miles a day this month, so ahead of schedule. Good luck everyone.
This dropped in this morning when I was up the hill
Nice. Well done. Is that 2000 consecutive days? Or just total?
I feel it should be silver if it’s total, gold if it’s consecutive. But either way it’s a nice goal to achieve. Having only got an AW recently I’m years away from this.
Having waited a long time to achieved this I don't care what f****** colour it is???
For consecutive, there’s this:
I’m still over 100 days away from extending my prior streakMy previous Longest Move Streak was 883 days and I then had to be without my watch and phone for a few days.
I am now on 1117 as of today.

Again - brilliant work @jz0309? - keep it going - hoping there will be a few more showing up soon.
Got mine today. Although my watch has a different challenge than the iPhone?♂️ Watch says double my move goal 24 times.
