Why don’t I see Wellzone App icon on my watch app?
If you have Wellzone App installed, the watch app icon cannot be changed after install in the same way as the iOS app. Apple only provides the ability to customize the iOS app icon.

There are two ways to reset HealthKit permissions in iOS 14.
iOS Health App:
- Navigate to the iOS Health App
- Select your profile icon on the top right side
- Select “Apps” under the Privacy section
- Select the Wellzone App
- Ensure all categories are turned on and showing green
iOS Settings App:
- Navigate to the Health section

- Ensure all categories are turned on and showing green
Does the Apple Watch app count towards my Activity Rings?
When using the Apple Watch App to record workouts, your information will sync to Apple’s Activity and Health Apps. This information is recorded and broken down into three goals: Move, Exercise and Stand, which make up the Activity Rings on your Apple Watch.
