Contacts missing after Apple Watch 3.0 app update

I just updated my Apple Watch to 3.0, and the Contacts app disappeared.  It shows on my iPhone, but not in the small icons on the watch and Siri on the watch says that I don't have a Contacts app.  Messages on my watch are coming through, but as numbers instead of names.  I tried a hard reset of the watch with no luck.  Any ideas?

Hello

Under watch OS 3, the friends feature (which was available in previous versions) comes over and there is no direct replacement for it.

When making calls or sending of new messages, contacts instead can be selected via the phone and Messages applications or using Siri:

  • Synchronization of contacts not all Apple Watch

    Hi Tyler

    Friends on Apple Watch can be organized into several groups, each of which can be named. To see the next group within the friends on your watch, slide sideways.

    Friends can be organized on your iPhone in the app Watch: Watch My (tab) > friends. Touch and hold the icon of a friend to drag them to a new location. To move between groups, drag an icon on the edge of the screen.

    In the Contacts app on your iPhone, make sure the contact of each friend card includes their coordinates. After all the changes, it may help re - sync your contacts:

    -On your iPhone in the app shows, go to: Watch My > General > reset > press reset sync data (you will not see anything that happens after typing - the process runs in the background, invisible to the user). Wait a minute or two before continuing.

  • Can the Apple Watch of training app take "tricks" during your workout?

    The application of the workout on the Apple Watch can loosely last "tricks" during your workout?  Can you do you run?

    -Thanks!

    Hello

    To mark a segment (for example one lap) during running exercise using integrated workout app, you can double-click the screen. The display briefly shows the stats for this segment. Segments can be examined after training through the activity on the matched iPhone application:

    You can also find that a third-party application meets your needs. To learn about the characteristics of third-party applications, I suggest you consult the descriptions of app developers and their support resources. For example:

    If you don't find the specific information you're looking for, you can ask the developer directly. This is usually possible through their support resources (you may need to create a free account in order to be able to connect). They may also be open to feature requests.

  • Perform the actions that I record with my sync to Apple Watch to health app on the iPhone

    I've always wondered to this topic, so lets say go for a walk with only my watch and without my iPhone. Once I get home I synchronize my watch with my phone, all the steps I did without my phone will be on my dashboard health app or not? If it is anyway I can do synchronize?

    Thank you

    Mike

    Hello

    Yes, steps recorded by your watch will be shared to the health app automatically after your watch has reconnected to your iPhone.

    Health and fitness data from any other source you can add over time (for example, blood pressure monitor, scales, etc.), the iPhone and Apple Watch are grouped within the health on iPhone app. Combined data is reflected in the application of health dashboard, which also adjusts the results (for example, the number of steps) to avoid any double counting of data from different sources.

  • App Apple Watch of training app vs Strava screen refresh speed

    Why the app Apple Watch of training refreshes the display faster than the app Apple Watch Strava?

    When I lift my arm to see my race/bike speed display shows workout app much faster when I do the same thing using Strava. Is it because Strava is an application of part 3 for the Apple Watch?

    Hello

    Strava advises the following:

    There is a delay for updating my stats when I put my wrist, what happens?

    We are aware of this problem and agree that it is a problem. Unfortunately the Strava app is not allowed to run in the background, that is why there is a delay in the update of your stats when you raise your wrist. We did not feel that it was useful to show you the old values for us currently gray on the stats, until the application can be updated.

  • Apple Watch question on apps

    Hi I have a Apple Watch. And whenever I put my wrist down or does not use my Apple Watch during a certain period it turns black. But when I type the watch using the app again, I have to go all the way back in my apps and reopen it. Y at - it a faster way to go back to the app I had open. Or are you always go back and reopen? Thank you

    Wake up, the screen saver then will show always the activity or the last used application.

  • Apple Watch - ring exercise not updated

    Hello. Just today, I had problems with my Apple Watch Sport (series 1) watchOS3, which included the workout and the App running activity.

    Today, I went for a Cycle in the open air which I followed him on my Apple Watch (I brought my iPhone with me). I finished training and saved. In total, I had worked for 53 minutes, however, he wasn't to my activity.

    In business, he told me that I've only made 26/30 minutes of exercise, even though at the bottom it says 'Outdoor - 8.67 km Cycle'.

    I called the Apple Support, but he just told me to disable the pairing and re - pair my watch, which did not help. I was told that they were "redevelopment of their tools" and therefore could not diagnose my problem, so they told me to call back tomorrow.

    Why I write here today, it's just to see if someone has had this experience, and if you know how to solve this problem. Any help is appreciated.

    Thank you!

    Hello

    Progress toward your daily goal of exercise of credit, the application of the activity aims to identify the activity equal or exceed the equivalent intensity of a brisk walk. This requirement applies for general daily use and during the recording of training through the app to training sessions.

    Appropriations for the financial year is awarded for each full minute during which this condition is fulfilled. It is possible that not all of your cycling workout meets this requirement.

    The definition of a brisk walk varies from one person to another and depends on your personal information. To verify that this is correct - and update over time:

    • On your iPhone, in the application of the watch, go to: My Watch (tab) > health > edit - tap and adjust the settings, then press on in fact.

    Apple Watch uses different sensors and data sources to track the results of training sessions, depending on the type of activity. For example, with Apple Watch (first generation) and the models of series 1, the watch can access data matched iPhone GPS if it is taken along during the walk outdoors, running and cycling training. (Series 2 has built-in GPS).

    Calibrate your watch can improve the accuracy of the estimates made by the activity and workout app app. More information and instructions for calibration of your watch are available via the link below. The article also includes instructions for resetting the calibration data and leave.

    If you prefer to receive credits of exercise during the duration of your training sessions, regardless of their estimated intensity levels, follow them through the application of the training session using 'Other' as the type of activity. This credit a minute of exercise for each minute of the workout. Active calories will be estimated at a rate equivalent to a brisk walk or based on the data recorded by the heart rate sensor, according to what is higher.
