Activity Challenge Badges (2024) Are Not Showing Up

(iPhone 12 - iOS 17.5.1, Apple Watch Ultra 2 - watchOS 10.0.2) In the past, I have been able to 'earn' Activity Badges/Awards for my various activities. However, even after doing qualifying activities, the National Parks Challenge and the Veterans Day Challenge have not shown up. I have gotten, for 2024, the Ring In The New Year Challenge, the Heart Month Challenge, the Earth Day Challenge, the Running Day Challenge, and just to try it, the Yoga Day Challenge. It is nice to receive the awards/badges, and it is nice to be 'recognized' for the effort exerted on a given day. (And the ones for weeks, and the ones for months.) And I think that it is nice for my heart health (which, in my opinion, is more important). So, the quandary is why did these 5 awards/badges come through, but National Parks Challenge and Veterans Day Challenge did not. (No settings were changed on the watch nor on the iPhone.)

Apple Watch Series 4, watchOS 9

Apple seems to have changed the number of available Limited Edition Awards in the recent watchOS 10 and watchOS 11 updates. And they also have been country specific in the past, Veterans Day has never been an option for my region.

National Park Challenge on August 25th has been the latest one showing up for me, I did not complete Yoga Day.


If you use the Feedback link, you can tell Apple directly about your wishes for future watchOS updates.

This is the only way to reach them, as Apple does not follow theses user to user communities.
