Activity rings on your HUAWEI band

To use this feature, first update your band 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: Access the home screen of Huawei Health, touch the Activity rings card to enter the Activity records screen. Touch in the upper right corner and then Edit goals.

On your band: Navigate to the Activity rings app, swipe left to view This week's statistics or swipe up to view Today's data and then up again to touch Edit goals.

(1) : Move measures the calories you burn through physical activity. You can increase Move calories by engaging in activities such as running, cycling, household chores, and walking your dog.

(2) : Exercise measures the total duration of moderate- and high-intensity workouts you engage in each day. 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 enhance cardiopulmonary endurance, improve strength, 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.
