Activity rings on your HUAWEI watch

To use this feature, first update your watch to its latest version.

Activity rings track your daily physical activity with three types of data (three rings): Move, Exercise, and Stand. Reaching your goals for all three rings can help you lead a healthier life.

To set your own goals for Activity rings:

On your phone: Go to Huawei Health > Health, and touch the Activity rings card to access the Activity records screen. Touch in the upper right corner and then Edit goals.

On your watch: Navigate to the Activity rings app, swipe left to view This week's data, swipe up to view Today's details, and swipe up again to find and touch Edit goals or Reminders. In Reminders, you can disable Stand, Progress, and Goal reached.

(1) : Move measures the calories you burn through activities like running, cycling, or even doing house work or walking your dog.

(2) : Exercise measures the total duration of moderate- and high-intensity workouts you've engaged. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends that adults get at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity or 75 minutes of high-intensity exercise per week. Fast walking, jogging, and moderate-intensity strength training can improve cardio endurance and boost overall fitness.

(3) : Stand measures the number of hours during which you stood up and moved around for at least one minute. For example, if you have walked for more than one minute in a given hour (such as between 10:00 and 11:00), this hour will be counted into Stand. Sitting for too long is harmful. WHO studies indicate that sitting for long periods of time is linked to higher risks of high blood sugar, type 2 diabetes, obesity, and depression.

This ring is designed to help remind you that staying seated for too long is damaging to your health. You are advised to stand up at least once per hour and score as high as you can for Stand every day.
