Motion & Fitness - iPhone 5 compatibility?

Built in 'Motion and Fitness' features of monitoring steps, distance, and altitude change works very well on my iPhone 6. I evangelized it to my family and they were excited to use it. That seems to be fine and good on iPhone 5 s of my mom. But the feature seems to be missing my father 5 iPhone. To check it out I went back to my old iPhone 5 too and didn't find the same thing - no option to activate this feature despite us all to be on iOS 9.2.

Could someone please confirm or deny for me definitively if 5 is able to use these features?

And if it CAN how I would you he get up and running?

All the * and input appreciated!

Jeez. That's happened. One allows to get a real contribution on just about everything, but the stoopidest of questions in this community. even THE questions have been answered back when.

I guess that nothing good lasts forever...

  • iPhone 5s does not save the steps of Apple Watch

    Just bought a brand new Apple Watch 42mm and paired with my iPhone 5 s. When I go to the activity app on my iPhone recordings of activity in the colorful journey circle and documents the calories. When I scroll through the steps it shows 0 steps. Missing however on behalf of digital not posting on the color chart. I tried to stop the iPhone and watch, but that has not worked. The Apple Watch IS indicating all the correct information.

    Now, I first bought the watch of 38mm and referred to this larger. I have not matched the old watch and paired it again. Not sure if it was a problem.

    HI - try the following steps:

    On your iPhone in the app shows, go to: Watch My > General > wrist Detection - make sure it's open.

    On your iPhone, in the application of the watch, go to: Watch My > privacy > disable Motion & Fitness - Fitness track (or, if it is currently disabled).

    Restart both devices by turning the two first set, and then restart your iPhone before restarting your watch:

    -To switch off your iPhone: press and hold the sleep/wake button until the Red slider appears. slide it to turn off. To restart, press and hold the sleep/wake button.

    -To switch off your watch: press and hold the button side until you see the cursor off the power; slide it to turn off. To reactivate: press and hold the side button until you see the Apple logo.

    If you disabled followed fitness in step 2, now return to the configuration and turn it back on.

  • Apple Watch Stand objective does not

    Sunday, September 17, 16, I've updated my Apple Watch (only a month) to the latest version. My goal of settlement worked very well on Saturday. It records now is no longer the time am I standing. I am a teacher and have been standing in my class since 09:00 this morning. About two hours of the judgment and it has not been saved. All the other goals in my application of activity are working perfect. Solutions or thoughts out there?

    Hello

    Try the following steps:

  • Health & exercise of data does not.

    My Apple Watch buggy since midnight Sunday, August 20, 16.  I work nights so I noticed right when he appeared at midnight when data movement/booth/exercise usually resets this night data reset and then automatically Move 708 following statistics / fiscal year 0 / Stand 5.  It is not possible that I could have won those move kcal in this short period of time. Throughout the day Saturday the watch continued to follow all three goals as usual never correct itself.  I continued to fulfill the purpose of the position of 12 hours, but on the phone app that he has highlighted 12 hours but I stood only 10 hours of reading.

    I've set up a chat with apple support and they walked me through the "non-appairage" and "re-pair" my watch to the iphone, there is nothing.  At midnight Monday, August 21, 16 the watch reset statistics as usual and I thought it was just a one time bug, no! Exactly the same thing happened Monday night in midnight Tuesday.  As soon as it's turned out midnight Tuesday morning read data Move exercise 708/0 / 5 Stand.  With the data of the value false, it lost my data from the day before.  It's just frustrating because I'm really big on the pursuit of my move to streak (81 days) which is now lost do to the data to be erased.

    I have a Genius Bar appointment in a few days hopefully can reslove this, otherwise the watch is still under warranty, but if someone else is having similar problems and them had corrected please answer.  Thanks for your help.

    Hello

    Saving workouts through the app to drive using others as the type of activity, active calories are 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.

    The following steps can help to improve the accuracy of the estimates made by your watch:

    • Estimates for calories and other results depend, in part, your personal information. To verify that it is accurate:
      • On your iPhone, in the application of the watch, go to: My Watch (tab) > health > Edit (top-right).
    • While training, to optimize the performance of the heart rate sensor (data from which is used when estimating calories), make sure you wear your watch fits on top of your wrist. Apple suggests that consider you the clamping Strip before starting a workout and it loosen again thereafter.
      • Note that the heart rate sensor is likely to give better results for the workouts that involve rhythmic (such as running) rather than the irregular movements.
    • Calibrate your watch can improve the accuracy of various estimates related to the activity, including estimates of calorie. To calibrate your watch, follow the instructions in the link below support article. You can reset your calibration data and start the process:
      • On your iPhone, in the application of the watch, go to: Watch My > privacy > Motion & Fitness > tap reset Calibration data.
