You guys are impressive!
Thanks Annie. I thought this streak would be easier to keep once I retired, but I travel so much now that it's gotten harder. But, it's something I'm very committed to maintaining.
After more than 15 years covering everything Apple, it’s with a heavy heart we announce that we will no longer be publishing new content on iMore and the iMore forums will be closing as of November 1st, 2024.
You guys are impressive!
You guys are insane. My longest is 336 days, and my current streak is 47 days.
Good for you! Of course, we've only been able to reach these awards because we were able to buy the original Apple Watch shortly after it came out and then take the Activity app to heart. In my case it was about 6 weeks; I wonder if there are any non-Apple-employee customers who got a watch sooner and kept up with move goals.

I bought my first Apple Watch 6/20/15. It took me about a month to decide what I wanted for a move goal. This decision was tricky because I felt I could average around 800 calories a day but could not do that on an everyday basis. Since Apple won't let you set anything other than a daily goal, I set one that would force me to do at least SOME exercise, even on days where I was traveling all day or just otherwise had no time to do a workout. I realize for some of you, setting a lower goal that's achievable may seem like cheating, but for me its motivating.
My 2500 day move streak started 7/25/15. Since that day, I have run 8500 miles, walked 12000 miles, and averaged 883 calories per day. The really surprising part of this is that it means I haven't had a single day where I couldn't get in some exercise. I'd be happy with 2500 more!
If you made it this far, thanks for reading.
This is weird. My longest move streak was reset to 34 days

Before the reset, were there days when the Longest Move Streak notification didn't show up? I've have had that happen numerous times in the past, but as Annie said, it eventually corrected itself. Fingers crossed!
I lost my move streak twice, so that counter would have reset. I was around 200 days in my longest move streak. I suspect these values come from the fact that I had to restore an iCloud Backup last night

Was there an option to restore an older backup and would that fix the incorrect move streak or just cause other problems?
It was the only backup for my iPhone.
I'm a little disappointed, but hey, I will be reminded how amazing I am daily for a while, so not all is lost
Well, it recalculated and everything is back in order, with my longest move streak being 336 days
