Activity rings not syncing to phone

The rings on my I watch are not syncing to my iPhone. I have tried to re”pair” the two but it never connects. This is all since I got a new iPhone. Watch won’t connect to Wi-Fi either.

Do I need to hard restart my watch? Will I lose my workout history?

Thx!

Watch Activity Not Syncing to Phone Hi! The activity I do that registers in my Apple Watch (Series 5) has stopped syncing to my phone (11). It stopped properly syncing about a week ago. Watch tracks and shows days of closed rings accurately, but Activity app in iPhone shows zero activity since it stopped syncing about a week ago. Yesterday I completely un-paired/re-paired my watch to phone, but the issue persists. Not sure what else to do at this point. Any ideas? Is there a setting somewhere in Settings, Watch or Activity I may have inadvertently turned off? Thank you.

You should not loose your workout data, I never have and have done this a few times.

Unpair your watch from your iPhone
Then delete the watch app
Restart your iPhone
Download and install the watch app from the app store
Pair the watch back to your iPhone, setting it up as new.
