How to View Your Activity Rings in Your Health App Dashboard


If you have an Apple Watch paired with your iPhone, you're familiar with Activity rings. On the Apple Watch, your activity is represented by three concentric circles that track how much of your daily goals you have met. There's a red circle for your Move goal, a green one for Exercise, and a blue one for Stand. However, you can also view these Activity rings in graph form in the Health app and include it as a part of your health Dashboard. Here's how to view your activity rings in your health app dashboard.

  • Open your Health app

  • Tap on Health Data at the bottom of the page.

  • Select Fitness

 

 

 

  • Tap Activity. Here's where you'll find the visual representation of the three metrics from your Activity rings.

How to Use Your iPhone's Scientific Calculator



I'll be honest, I don't think I've used a scientific calculator since college. But my teenage daughter uses one every time she does her math homework. The problem is that she's constantly losing her calculator. On the other hand, she has never once lost her phone. I suspect that her priorities in this matter are similar to those of most teenagers.
