Troubleshooting Apple Watch Friends Not Showing

If your Apple Watch isn’t showing friends in the Activity app, it could be because you haven’t updated all your watches to the latest version of watchOS. To fix this issue, first sign out of iCloud on your iPhone and then sign back in. To do this, go to Settings > [your name], or on iOS 10.2 or earlier, tap Settings > iCloud. Once you have signed back in, update all your watches to the latest version of watchOS and then the Sharing tab should appear in Activity.

Then tap on your friend and select Remove. After that, go back to Sharing in the Fitness app and tap Invite a Friend to re-invite them. This should help sync teir activity with your Apple Watch.
