Cardio recovery not showing on health app

Is anyone else having an issue with cardio recovery not showing on watch OS 27.0.1? All other metrics seems to be showing fine, but when opening cardio recovery and checking data sources, it shows none? It’s so frustrating!

Try this:


  • Health ->Heart ->Cardio Recovery -> Data Sources & Access
  • Make sure Fitness Tracking is ON.
  • Restart both the Watch and iPhone.
  • Do an Outdoor Walk/Run workout, then end it normally and check again.



Cardio-related measurements depend on the Watch collecting proper heart-rate data during workouts.

I am having the same issue after upgrading to AWU4 from series 8. Three runs so far. I show the heart rate drop graph post workout, but no cardio recovery showing in the health app. Fitness and heart rate are already enabled and other metrics showing just fine.

Hi, thanks for the reply. Tried this already last night, this is what shows despite heart rate data being collected and all other metrics being recorded as the should….
