Happy birthday 🎈 to both of my Apple Watch wearers! Are y’all both going to preorder new Apple Watches or iPhone 17s for your birthday? Or will be celebrating with something else that is special?

To keep things on topic y’all, I am 10 out of 14 days in my activity challenge for 63 Exercise minutes over 2 weeks. I am on track for completion, will be back in my home gym on Monday as the gym pass will be done

September is done.
I upgraded to watchOS 26 already so hopefully October will bring something different than "14 times ..."

I had installed the RC on both watch and iPhone last Friday and the the official version of the 26 this morning ... never seen this for my longest move streak - anyone else on watchOS 26 seeing similar? I did hit my move goal this morning

Edit: this is under the "go for it" section, the longest move streak was not in that section previously.It also still shows in the "awards" section ... had me confused ;)

Edit 2: this is on the phone, on the watch longest move streak does not show under go for it ...

9/16 Edit 3: today the longest move streak does not show anymore under go for it on the phone, so must have been a glitch after updating to OS 26...

Wait what happened? Did you break your streak after the update?

I saw a thread similar to this and I got plagued by it too. Not common after huge updates but it happens when you restore from an older backup

Oh dang now I know. It is a bug; on my end when I hit new records for my runs or walks and get the achievement it doesn’t even count as an additional achievement. Instead only shows the first one I got.

Not with the move streak though but that gives me an idea

What is interesting to me about this challenge is the fact that it is 22 days. Nearly all of my challenges in the past year have been of the 14 times variety, so how did Apple come up with 22 days? Interestingly, if you look at my calendar, it shows I'm leaving the country tomorrow and will be gone the rest of the month. Is it possible the challenge algorithm took that into account? That would be both fascinating and a little scary.

Haven’t had that before. Mines was usually two weeks given to me to do it

in my book I'd call it creepy ;)
was this your first yoga challenge? I seem to recall some people getting non 14 times challenge on their atypical workouts. Like I think @Apple fanboy got some elliptical challenge that was not 14 times, but can't remember exactly
