## What is Activity Rings+?

Wish it were easier to see whether you’ve met your Stand Hour yet?  This app uses your HealthKit data to offer complications for your favorite Apple Watch faces that show your Activity Rings, plus a Stand Hour circle to show whether you’ve already earned it at a glance.

Note:  If the app is missing on your Watch after purchase, go to the App Store on your Watch to install.  (Scroll to the bottom, click Account -> Purchased, and tap the download cloud next to Activity Rings+)

- APPLE WATCH APP
In the app, see a quick view of your Move/Exercise/Stand data and your familiar Activity Rings, with an added indicator showing whether you've met the current Stand Hour.  Also see today's Steps at a glance—no more scrolling down to interpret your activity data!  Tap the screen to switch to percentage view or Calories/Minutes/Stand Hours remaining.

- COMPLICATIONS
On newer Apple Watch faces (Meridian, Infographic, California, etc.), you can add complications that feature your Activity Rings with an added stand indicator that illuminates when you've met the current stand hour.

On older Apple Watch faces, (Breathe, Modular, Colors, Simple, etc.), you can add a Stand Indicator that will be colored solid if you've met the current stand hour or will be a hollow outline if you still need to stand up.


Note:  Complications refresh in the background as often as Apple permits.  Tap the complication to open the app if you'd like to refresh the data immediately.  Your Stand Hour will always clear at the start of the next hour, so if you see Activity Rings+ lit up, you'll know you've hit it.

## Key features

- Activity Rings display
- Stand Hour indicator
- Daily Steps at a glance

### 5/5 — Very good

*2026-02-23*

It works very well, and I’m surprised by the frequently that the complication updates. I think it could use a little work for the Activity Rings face. I didn’t like that I had to use the more valuable circular complication slot for this app. I would’ve appreciated a slim date complication that said “⬆️ Monday, February 9.” Also, because the watch face shows the number of stand hours, it would be nice if the complication did as well so that I could tell when it’s showing stale data. Like I said, it does update surprisingly frequently, but that doesn’t mean it never shows stale data. I understand there’s nothing you can do about that.
It’s a great app though. I’m happy with it as-is, and for the amount of money I paid, I don’t expect any of these fixes to be made.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2024-09-22*

Great app. Would be good if the complication could also be added to the widget drawer when you swipe up from the bottom of the screen.

### 5/5 — Definitely worth the $1

*2024-05-21*

Usually by the time I’m looking to see if I’ve got my stand credit, the complication shows it - if it doesn’t, it’s an easy tap away. Activity will remind you to stand if not, assuming you have that enabled. Even at a one-time $3 it’d be worth it. I’m sure if the developers had the ability to make it refresh more often they would, it’s just not something Apple allows to 3rd party apps.

### 2/5 — Love the Idea - doesn’t update automatically?

*2023-09-28*

I like the indicator, it’s slick and easy to use. My only issue is it doesn’t update automatically once you hit your stand goal for the hour - you have to click it to open the app for it to realise you’ve hit the goal… 

Still nice to have but slightly less useful.

### 1/5 — Asking for HealthKit access

*2022-10-17*

Whenever you open it up it asks for HealthKit access even though it has access to the Health app already

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2022-10-17, version 1.4*

I confirm the other comment: the app doesn’t work at all. The popup asking for permission never appeared and the app is not on the privacy section. 

Too bad. The promise was good. I asked for a refund.

### 4/5 — Almost Perfect

*2022-10-10*

Works well, especially since watch os 9 ruined the activity complication for the modular watch face. Displays the rings and numbers nice and cleanly. Only issue I have is with the move calories. I have mine set to 1,000. When I reach my goal, it displays at 1,000 / 1,0…     Wish there was a way to shrink the text or something so it fit better.

**Developer response:** Wow—high calorie goal! Thanks very much for the feedback. Will work on an update that fixes that display bug (though it may take me a little while). Appreciate the review!

### 3/5 — Clever way to see the hourly stand goal

*2022-10-04*

However, for complications, there needs to be a way to select units. It’s defaults to calories but my country uses kj.

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2022-10-03*

Thank you for making this very niche app, and the beautiful complications to go with it. Well made apps like this really improve the Watch experience when the widgets are not only so well designed but also functional. It’s a delight to have this on my regular watchfaces, keep up the good work!

### 5/5 — Add support for iOS 16 Widgets

*2022-09-13*

Would be cool if you could somehow add support for iOS 16 widgets on the lock screen to show standup.
