I know that there are numerous threads, both here and on other forums, regarding similar problems, but I have not found anything about my specific situation, so I thought I'd ask here. I recently set up a new iPhone and a new Apple Watch, both as 'new devices', as I was told that all my Fitness records are saved on iCloud, so by signing into my Apple ID on the new devices they would be restored.
However, after setting up my devices, all my Limited Challenge Badges were gone. I found out that it might take a few days for them to reappear and sure enough, after a few days of use, almost all of them reappeared on my iPhone. However, I am still missing one challenge badge (National Parks Challenge from August) and my badges for completed competitions (the one saying that I completed a competition and the one for me actually winning it). Both competition badges show up as greyed out on my phone as if I didn't complete them.
Now, I wanted to ask for your advice: It has been about eight days since setting up the new devices. Is there any chance that these three missing badges will still somehow show up? Did any of you experience something similar? Can I do any steps to make them reappear (stop and start iCloud sync of my Health app, ...)? Do you have any other advice? Especially the missing challenge badge was very dear to me, as I achieved it on a day that was important to me personally.
