I have to double my move goal 30 times this month. Doable but will take effort.
 
Nothing yet!

Still hoping it’ll give my March award, I hit the calorie target on the last day and nothing yet.

I always get the badge the day after doing what it ask. Restart the app and maybe even your phone and see if that helps.

I usually get the badge the next day. The problem with hitting the target on the last day of the month is that the badge can disappear before it’s awarded. That happened to me in October. I never got the badge but my November badge shows as having been achieved in the first (it wasn’t; it actually appeared towards the end of the month).
[doublepost=1522599832][/doublepost]Oh and no April challenge for me as yet.
 
Close all my rings 23 times.

What do you guys do that double your move goal so often? Do you have very physical jobs or is it just set that low?? The only days I double it have been days I’ve run 10+ miles!

I have to close my ring like 10 times or something. I have not been very active for the past 30 days between jobs. Serves me right, but I have to start somewhere.
 
The watchOS update must have reset the coaching data on the Apple Watch. I updated my watch on Friday and went to the gym both Friday and Saturday and this is my April challenge.

Yeah, I've got a notification this morning that my April challenge is to close Move ring 1 (!!!) time. I closed it 20+ times in March, so that was unexpected. I thought it's April Fool's joke. But apparently you got it - I've updated my watch (S0) to 4.3 last night, so right at the end of month. I guess it thought I've completed 0 Move rings that month.
 
I just bought a Nike+ Watch Series 3 yesterday. I got out of bed this morning and the watch congratulated me for standing up. Trolled big time. :D
 
I have to record 11 workouts that are 15 minutes or longer each. That one is too easy for me. I will have it by the 11th. OK, maybe not till the 15th. But I will do it.

I got ripped off in March big time. My challenge was to go 140 miles. I kept an eye on it throughout the month and was pacing pretty well. On the day before It ended I was up to about 136 or 7 miles. I even looked at it mid afternoon on the last day, and for some reason it was then saying that I had only gone 110.7 miles. I went through the entire calendar and added up all my miles this that I had done throughout the month of March. It added up to the 137 or eight-ish miles at that point. I made it A point to get in enough mileage to exceed 140 for the month. It’s still hasn’t given me the badge. I’m pissed.!
 
Still not got an April challenge yet. My March one was broken from the beginning.
Stayed like this the whole month (note that it also states February challenge )

My April challenge is to close my exercise ring 19 times this month. Not too hard compared to march when it was to have something like 720 average active calories per day. Its a little too over for me.

On another note, I read elsewhere that if you do the perfect month badge (closing all your ring for all days of the month) you can't unlock the challenge badge. Its something like one or another (the challenge badge is more like a "consolation prize") but not both, is that true ?

You can get both.

Are you running the latest version of iOS and watchOS? All of my previous challenges have had that same issue, where it was incorrectly getting the "progress so far" data from the previous month instead of the current month (thus the total would never change), and was showing the correct icon but incorrect title.

After installing the latest iOS and watchOS updates a few days ago, this month the challenge appears to be working properly, requiring me to close the exercise ring 22 times, and it correctly shows I've closed it once so far.
 
To close all 3 Activity rings 30 times this month... No rest for me...

No rest and a good chance you won’t actually get the badge: it’s impossible to get it before the last day of the month and these badges often aren’t awarded straight away so it might disappear at midnight on the 30th before it fills in. The month I completed the challenge on the last day is the one I don’t have the badge for.

Yeah, I am on latest version for both.

My April challenge has come through - earn 1086 minutes.

Cool - I suspect that existing challenges (prior to upgrading to the latest versions) remained as they were and challenges going forward will hopefully work properly. I guess we'll find out for sure after this month and next month...

My April Challenge is "82 workouts of 15 minutes or more." This will definitely be a challenge between work and school, but I'll give it a shot!
