It's a bit strange. Apple watch Series 8 Cellular and GPS received near the end of October. My November Challenge is to close the Move ring a certain number of times. Okay, no problem as I close it every day. But for some reason, since November 1, it isn't being applied to my challenge. In the "award" area, it shows 0 days completed. This did not occur in October.
Any ideas?

Thank you for the reply. Unfortunately, I've done that several times.

Strange, I also had that happen once and rebooting both devices fixed it for me…

Weird. Last night, for some odd reason, the November Challenge was updated with the actual move ring closures. I don’t get it.
I don’t know why I care about these stupid monthly badges. I really dont, but I guess I do. Hmmm

UPDATE- it went back to zero this morning.

Same thing for my November challenge. What seems to work for me is closing the Activity app on the phone completely by swiping it up. After re-opening the challenge is updated.

I usually do that. Funny it went back to zero this morning. I don’t get it.

I power off both Apple Watch (Ultra) and iPhone every night. My challenge is 8.4 miles per day for 14 days.

I ran 4 miles yesterday, my 55th birthday, and that brought me to 8.42. It wasn't counted. Still 12 of 14 instead of 13 times if yesterday counted.

I had the same issue last month with it not updating correctly. Ultimately it gave me the awards as it should’ve and I remember it being on the correct day as well.

My November challenge is (and has been) stuck at 6 of 14 days. The challenge I received was 2.0 (or greater) miles/day for 14 days during November. I’ve completed 2 (or more) miles per day for 12 days, but the counter remains stuck at 6. I’ve restarted both the Phone and the Watch, and have swiped up, as suggested above.

Rarely, opening the Activity app on the watch then opening it on the phone too has updated my stats on the phone. Sure you've tried it, but if not maybe give it a go.
