I have an Apple Watch 1st generation running watchOS 4.3.2, and an iPhone 5s running iOS 12.5.7 paired to the Watch, How do I change all three of my ring’s goals? My exercise goal and stand is not right, neither my calorie goal, Is there no way to change my goals except the calorie goals?

You can't. The ability to change exercise and stand goals wasn't until watchOS 7.

Did you try to change the settings in the Activity App?

This article describes the steps in watchOS 5, I did not find the user guide for watchOS 4.

Did you try to open the Fitness App on the iPhone, tap on the part where it shows the summary and your Activity Rings. There you might see the option next to each ring to adjust the goal by taping on the " - +" icon.

Thanks for the additional clarification. I thought that raising your activity level in older watchOS versions in the settings will also increase your daily goals.

My first Apple Watch 5 came with watchOS 7 preinstalled, so checking the older user guides was my only source of information in this case🙂

Lots of people complained about it for a while which is why I remember it.
