Why don’t i get weekly summary in Apple Watch?

Answered by James Kissner

There could be several reasons why you are not receiving the weekly summary on your Apple Watch. Let’s explore some possible solutions:

1. Ensure Wrist Detection is turned on: On your iPhone, open the Watch app and go to the My Watch tab. Tap on Passcode and make sure that Wrist Detection is enabled. This feature allows your Apple Watch to detect when you are wearing it and provides accurate tracking data for your activity.

2. Check Health settings: In the Watch app on your iPhone, go to the My Watch tab and select Health. Make sure that all the necessary permissions and settings are enabled for the Health app to collect and display your activity data. Additionally, verify that you have granted permission for the Health app to access your motion and fitness data.

3. Update your Apple Watch software: Outdated software can sometimes cause issues with certain features. Ensure that your Apple Watch is running on the latest version of watchOS. Open the Watch app on your iPhone, go to the My Watch tab, and select General. Tap on Software Update to check for any available updates and install them if necessary.

4. Restart both your iPhone and Apple Watch: Sometimes a simple restart can resolve minor software glitches. Try restarting both your iPhone and Apple Watch by turning them off and then back on again. This can help refresh the connection between the devices and potentially fix any issues that may be preventing the weekly summary from appearing.

5. Check your activity goals and settings: Make sure that you have set up your activity goals correctly. Open the Activity app on your iPhone and navigate to the “Today” tab. Tap on the three rings icon at the bottom to view your goals. Adjust them if needed. Additionally, check the settings for your Move, Exercise, and Stand goals to ensure they are configured to your liking.

6. Reset sync data: If none of the above solutions work, you can try resetting the sync data between your iPhone and Apple Watch. Open the Watch app on your iPhone, go to the My Watch tab, select General, and tap on Reset. Choose the option to Reset Sync Data. Note that this will erase any unsynced data, so make sure you have a recent backup of your Apple Watch data before proceeding.

If you have tried all of the above steps and are still not receiving the weekly summary on your Apple Watch, it may be helpful to contact Apple Support or visit an Apple Store for further assistance. They can provide personalized troubleshooting and help resolve any underlying issues that may be causing the problem.
