The fitness app on AppleWatch stopped tracking distance several days ago

As of a few days ago only calories are being tracked when Outdoor Cycle is selected on Apple Watch. I have checked all of the settings as per other threads and there is no issue with privileges. In fact, the route is properly mapped.


When an outdoor walk is recorded, the distance is accurately tracked. This seems like a bug that was introduced recently specifically with that Workout.

Hi wischr,


Have you restarted both your watch and iPhone? Sometimes restarting can help with minor software issues. If that doesn't help you can you try calibrating the watch. Doing so can help lead to more accurate tracking. You can learn how here: Calibrating your Apple Watch for improved Workout and Activity accuracy

Take care.
