Changing activity goals using voice over

watchOS and Apple Watch Apps

Yet another question. I wanted to try to change my goals, they are a bit loftier then first desired. Anyone know how to change them? If i go into the activity app on the watch, it's about sharing, how many calories I've burned etc. If I use the watch app on my phone, It's all notifications and things. what am I doing wrong? again? lol thanks.

Did you check it in your phone? It might be in there to change.

As i wrote, I can only group notificatins and if i go by page, it's only sharing and how many calories i've burned per hour etc. Thanks for trying.

Nov 8, 2022Change your goals Open the Activity app on your Apple Watch. Swipe up, then tap Change Goals. Tap to increase or decrease the number of active calories for your daily Move goal, then tap Next. Tap to increase or decrease the number of minutes for your daily Exercise goal, then tap Next.

Hi. Use voice over key, so caps lock or control option, command, then shift right arrow. Do this one at a time. You'll hear Rate, pitch, volume, when you want the rate, let go of the keys. Then use voice over, shift, command, up arrow or down arrow. do it will go form 50% to 45% so it's much easier to understand. Hope that helps, watching a movie so not paying attention lol.

Hello,
According to my watch, just received by the way, you should probably wait and change your goals when the coach "visits." of course, this is assuming you have active coaching turned on. I managed to change my moving goal on the phone, but I've not yet dealt with this on the watch itself. Keep in mind I'm a newby at this watch stuff with Apple. However, I really love it so far ... despite the possible bugs I'm finding/much older watch than you all have/much older OS too.
