Global Close Your Ring Day

Hey @denmow -

In my experience, the Limited Edition Challenge feature is a bit prone to glitching. One potentially relevant example: part of my collection of LE badges will occasionally disappear/reappear apropos of nothing.

Did your issue resolve itself, by any chance?

If not, can you confirm you do have the stickers? I’m attaching a screenshot of the ones that appear to be associated with Global Close Your Ring Day.

Hey @denmow -

Another forum member @8sotsm reported a similar issue awhile back and helpfully followed up, providing a record of how they successfully resolved the issue. For ease of reference, the text below (in italics) quotes from that post verbatim. The bulleted list is basic troubleshooting, but I added underscore to the part that you might find most useful.

Hope that helps!

I called Apple Support, did a bunch of things which I recommend you do as well. I don't know which of these worked, or if the system just needed a few days to proccess it, but I got the badge this morning.

Here's the recommendations:

• Make sure your watch and iPhone are in the latest software update
• Make sure you have enough iCloud space to sync the data
• Restart the phone and the watch after iCloud cleanup or a new backup sync

Through support, I installed some health kit to collect logs and send to Apple. That happened last night and this morning the badge was available. Maybe they could trigger something in the backgroud, or it was originally just a matter of time.

I closed the rings but have not received the badge. I've never used stickers in Messages but I think I received those for closing the rings. How do I get the badge? I worked extra hard to exceed my goals yesterday.

Can you check your stickers vs. the reference screenshot I posted? You mentioned in your post that you thought these were awarded to you. Imo, this was smart thinking on your part. Knowing this for certain is an intermediate troubleshooting step that can provide us with useful information.

If you do have them, that means somewhere within the app the badge was registered as achieved. If you don’t have them, that would point towards a different problem…specifically, that the app didn’t recognize that you achieved challenge metrics.

That’s why I attached a ‘tool’ that would allow you to confirm. Lmk if you’re not sure how to check.

Thank goodness! I really wasn’t looking fwd to telling you I got the badge and I didn’t even share the hashtag. (:

I still have not received the Global Close Your Rings badge.

I checked my stickers and I do not have the Global Close Your Ring Day stickers. I thought I had gotten them but I didn't. My sister just received the badge but I have not.

Thanks for the info. I will check it out. Hope it works. Thank you for the assistance. I’ll post again the outcome.
