Activity Awards Not Appearing After Latest Apple Watch and IPhone Update

Hello... First time posting in community.


After updating the apple watch to software version 7.6.2 suddenly the activity awards are not appearing... All the badge awards stopped short after the update (which happens to be Sep 16th in my case). I've tried to restart both iphone and apple watch to no avail. Anyone experiencing this after the update too?


Thank you.

Apple Watch Series 6, watchOS 7

The first (and simplest) thing to try if something isn’t working right is to restart your Apple Watch and its paired iPhone. If necessary (device not responding), try a forced restart. Both methods can be found here:

If that doesn't help, the next steps would be to unpair and pair your watch again and restore from the backup just created. This should result in no loss of data. It deletes all temp and corrupted files and re-indexes the file system.
