Or better yet, we could post how many consecutive days we have gotten our stand goal. I'm sure the OP would love that. I'm at 382 days since I restored my phone as new last year. But in reality, I have not missed it once since launch day of the original Apple Watch (917 days).
I've never missed the stand goal since first getting an Apple Watch. It is the easiest one to get. Wear your Watch and get off your butt once and a while. Mission accomplished!
Interesting - if my math is correct that means you would have had to get a perfect stand achievement every week since roughly the first week of September 2014 to be at 164 now, but the original Apple Watch went on sale in April 2015, so unless you are an Apple employee who tests pre-release hardware I don't get it? Bug maybe?
I'm curious how you were able to complete the Stand goal at 11:00 AM? It would seem that it would have to be at least 11:01 AM for it to register, since it requires you to stand for a full minute each hour. Assuming you started standing at 11:00:00 AM, that would take until 11:00:59 until it completed and then for the ring to fill would take at least another second.
It doesn’t actually take a full minute. More like 20-30 seconds tops.
What if I‘ve been walking (without sitting) for 2 straight hours? Will I get a “standing credit” for each of those 2 hours? I have a feeling that I don’t…
I think it's buggy. I get up to get water and go to the bathroom multiple times in the night but don't always get credit. Also, the exercise ring is complete BS. I've gone on 5 mile hikes and/or walks and not closed the exercise ring.
I had to use “other” instead of the exercise options to get credit.
Call me “naive”, but I find it a bit disappointing that you could be standing and moving around (at least a little bit, so that you are not completely “static”) for a whole hour or more, and the Watch won’t recognize that. Is it just a bug, or is the Watch simply designed in a way that you HAVE to have been sitting for a while for it to take into account the fact that you’re now standing?
I'll be honest with you; I'm on my 4th Apple Watch (series 0, series 2, series 3), a stainless steel 5 in the smaller size. It is one of my favorite accessories, and I wear it every day. I really, really like it and would never get rid of it.
I just got my first Apple Watch (SE) a month ago, and I love it too! But I was a bit curious about the way the number of standing “moments” was calculated. I guess I’ll just have to accept the fact that some aspects of the Watch might be more or less reliable… as long as they’re not critical components. Oh well… that’s life! 😉
I could just have the worst luck in the world. It's supposed to credit you 1 standing hour for every clock face hour in which you stand and move around for at least 1 minute
Mmhh...164/52 are three years and a bit.
It seems to just be inaccurate. I've found it usually won't detect you're standing unless your arm is completely vertical. I've been in my kitchen cooking and I'll get a stand reminder despite having been standing for a long time because my hands are raised up to a counter or the stove or whatever. However I've found my S6 is actually a lot more accurate in this regard than my S3 was so maybe there's some improvement in the latest sensors. I rarely get reminders to stand when I've been standing now.
"Stand" is measuring motion and maybe angle. I got tired of not getting credit, so I found that you can satisfy the requirement by shaking the watch for about 40 seconds. That doesn't do your body the good standing is supposed to, though.
this. I do try to get up every hour though but sometimes have to report to that method 🙂
