Heart Month Challenge Award 2021

I went cycling for about an hour and a half this morning and within a couple minutes of getting back home it gave me the award.
Mine didn’t appear until I also closed the move ring, so about an hour after completing the challenge.
I had to wait 1 1/2hr after my workout, others rebooted their phone and watch ...
historically the heart month challenge has been closing your exercise ring 7 days in a row that's showing on the badges I still have from 2018/19/20). Now, the Unity challenge was exactly that ... and people were surprised that they got it after 1 day in Feb. I know the many thought it was because it counted the previous 6 days in January ...
I suspect that someone at Apple mixed those 2 up, Unity was supposed to be 60 min and heart month 7 days in a row and that is contributing to the weirdness we're seeing in getting those badges ...
Oh well, at the end of the day, keep doing what you're doing

Just got back from a 61 min exercise. Didn't show. Searched and found this. Yep, I rebooted phone/watch and within a few minutes got it.
Worked for my wife's watch as well (restarting phone/watch).

I'm so glad I looked here at this forum. Thanks for the suggestion to reboot the phone and the watch. Tried both suggestions and I'm not sure why but I got my badge immediately. In the past Apple has put me through hell denying me my badges so it sure was a pleasure to see that badge pop right up. Nice.
Still didn’t get mine. Their support document says it can take up to 9 days. Talk about delayed gratification!
Did 30 minutes on my erg to get to 70 minutes of exercise but no love. Rebooted both watch and phone. An hour later, zip. Maybe it will show up by next Valentine's Day.
Edited to add that I checked at 11:30 p.m. and saw it was awarded.

humans are writing the SW, and this is not mission critical, so no big deal ...
Genuinely not sure what your point is, but I’m glad for you that it’s no big deal. For me it is a big deal along with the multitude of other issues with their latest software releases.
I’m also glad the award is finally showing up for most, if not everyone.
my point/response was to your statement
"Absolutely crap software by Apple ..."
Badges for challenges to me is not a big deal in that context.
I do agree that SW QA recently has been less than stellar ...
I’ve contacted support and they put me through an hour long chat just to call me in the end to tell me the badge “will” pop up within 9 days, if not contact them back. It’s 15Feb for me now and the badge isn’t showing nor appearing in the Fitness app anymore even though I did 80 mins of exercise yesterday
Wow call back if it doesn't appear in 9 days? lol. <nods head slowly> alrighty.
Anyway, have you tried restarting? That seems to fix most of us.
Had the same issue… badge wasn‘t showing up, despite 65 minutes of training.
Thought I‘d wait until today (15th) but still nothing. After rebooting both iPhone and Watch it now shows up as completed.

Thing is. Do you ever look at the badges you have? For me keeping the move streak or double your move goal is significant. These extras don’t really motivate me or achieve anything. I do 60 minutes every day. Just saying.
Nope, just motivated to do 60 instead of 45. Win win for me
