Hello,
I recently got an Apple Watch series 6. Today i closed the all activity rings for the first time. When i closed the rings i didn’t get the fireworks animation any of the times that i closed a ring today. Previous days when i had closed the stand ring i had got a animation for that ring. The reason my be because i updated to watchOS 7.1 from 7 but i don’t know.
I would very much appreciate your help
Thanks,

I believe I cracked the code of why the fireworks won't show when you complete the three rings, at least in my case. It is not simply a bug. It is a systematic design failure that's too subtle for Apple to notice and fix.
First of all, I have turned on all settings that should allow the fireworks to show. So it's not about the settings.
The real reason is that, when you complete all three rings, if you also have a streak record, or achieve a 200% 300% or 400% move goal completion, the systems sends out an additional notice along with the three-ring completion notice, which cancels the fireworks.
That means, if you, for example, are on your longest streak of your workout, it's very likely that you won't see the fireworks because the system will rush to tell you that you achieve a streak before it tells you that you completed your three rings, and pooff... your fireworks won't show!
My own customized solution for to this is that, which is unfortunate, I set my Move goal to 10 calories a day, which is extremely easy to achieve, so that I can complete this goal and 200% 300% or 400% move goals in like an hour or so, as well as the longest streak, so that the systems sends out all these notifications way before I complete the rest of the rings. While my actual move goal is 600 calories a day. I then complete the stand and exercise goals later. I set the exercise goal as one hour, but I'll keep the timer of exercising even when it goes beyond one hour, until I burn 600 calories, and then I end the exercise. If by then I already complete my stand ring, then the system will show the three ring complete notice while playing the fireworks animation.
They told me to reset all settings. well that didn't work except took me time to update my touch id. Is there a face that u use regularly that works? I wanna try. Today i didnt get the red ring.
I use this Utility one ...is kind of optimized for fitness😂
I love the utility face, but I yet have to see all 3 rings close consistently😔
I will try the infograph again and see what happens
did you have to hit this reset fitness calibration first? Do you lose any fitness data? Kinda not sure about this. Did not get the red again today.
I was prepared to lose the data I had though cause my watch was still fairly new and I wanted the rings to work soooooo bad!!!
I used these steps only. I didn’t do the part in the app. I didn’t have to do any of that. When I walk, it’s always 5 miles, so I was good with the 20 minute walk.
Awww man! 😡😤😠 I was really hoping it was going to work! I really hope they figure it out soon too cause it’s beyond ridiculous!!! It’s not fair for us as Apple customers and they need to make it right!
I’m hoping that possibly in about a day or 2 it starts working like mine did because it definitely wasn’t immediately that same day.
EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!!! The notifications can kick rocks! 😤😠😡 The animations is what is needed point blank period!
Rarely rarely get the red one. I haven’t noticed any at all for a while. That said I’ve been very lazy and not paying as much attention! I shall re-focus and see where I am with the animations
Thanks for posting, this solved it for me, too
Haha, I’m in South Africa and it’s pretty late here now 😁
I’m waiting on my Move ring now. Let me do some walking and “move” that along 😂
Hopefully, I’ll have an answer soon!
Ah, ok😀
Haha! Hopefully Apple will see the desperation amongst all of and fix it 😂
Thanks for the wishes! All the best to you too!
