Track excersise tile not working?

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

My track excersise told on the app used to show a triangle then tell me how many days excersise I've completed, now it's just showing a running man!

 

if I go onto it it's showing no excersise this week!

 

if I go onto the Lightning tab you can see I've completed my 3 days excersise this week!

 

how can I fix this? I have reset my charge 2 many times already!

There is a bit of a difference between the "Lightening" tile which is Active Minutes and the "Running Man" which is the formal Exercise tile.

 

When I say "formal" I mean exercise that was either manually entered or "auto-recognized" by the app as an exercise period.

 

I have actually gotten credit for 10 active minutes for a nearly 11 minute treadmill session, but no exercise period because it takes a little over 1 minute to recognize the activity and that recognition period is not counted in the total minutes for the activity. Therefor the exercise period was considered less than 10 minutes and not booked. Not booked means no section of fence to enclose the running man.

 

It becomes more of a difference if you have changed your active minute threshold to less than the default 10 minutes. I have recently changed mine, to 5 minutes as I have a desk job and want to be able to celebrate even a 5 minute slice as a motivator. I personally consider the step count and calories burned more important, at least to me, but everybody needs some motivation

 

Anyway, having active minutes doesn't always mean an activity will be booked for you.

 

So I guess the bottom line question is "Were you exercise periods the last three days relatively short as compared to previous exercises?" If so, then that may very well be your answer.

 

Good luck and welcome to the boards.
