The Apple Watch 2020 has taken the world by storm, offering users more features and functionality than ever before. One of the most popular features is the Stand Ring, which encourages you to move around for at least one minute each hour. The Stand Ring has become an integral part of the Apple Watch experience and is a great way to stay active throughout your day.

However, some users have experienced difficulty adding stand hours manually to their Stand Ring on the Apple Watch 2020. This is especially true for those who are not able to stand or move around for at least one minute each hour due to physical limitations or other circumstances.

We have created this blog post to provide helpful advice and tips on how you can manually add stand hours to your Apple Watch 2020.

The first step in manually adding stand hours to your Apple Watch 2020 is resetting your calibration data. To do this, open the Apple Watch app on your iPhone and select My Watch > Privacy > Reset Fitness Calibration Data. Once you have completed this process, you should be able to manually add stand hours in increments of one minute or more.

Another way to hack the Stand ring is by standing up and swinging both arms front to back about 15-20 times every hour. Doing this will close your Stand goal for each hour automatically and help you reach your daily goal in no time!

You can also turn off and back on again your Apple Watch or unpair and re-pair it with your iPhone if you are experiencing any issues with adding stand hours manually on your device.

Cheating Stand Goals on Apple Watch

Cheating your stand goal on an Apple Watch is not recommended and is against the terms of use. However, there are ways to “hack” the Stand ring. One method is to stand up and then swing both arms front to back about 15-20 times. This will close the Stand goal for each hour. Another way to cheat the Stand ring is to manually adjust the time on your watch so that it appears you have stood up for at least one minute during each hour. Of course, this method could be considered fraudulent and could result in consequences if caught by Apple.

Tracking Stand Hours on an Apple Watch

To earn stand hours on your Apple Watch, you need to stand up and move around for at least 1 minute during 12 different hours in the day. Your Stand ring will track your progress and indicate when you have achieved your goal.

To make sure you’re successfully earning Stand hours, open the Activity app on your iPhone or iPad and tap the rings tab at the bottom of the screen. Your Stand ring should show a complete circle; if it doesn’t, try standing up and moving around for at least a minute during different times of the day to fill in any gaps.

You can also use other Apple Watch features such as reminders or goals to make sure you’re meeting your daily goal. For example, you can set reminders to remind you to stand up every hour or set an activity goal with your watch that will notify you when it’s time to move around throughout the day.

If you want more detailed information about your Stand hours, open the Health app on your iPhone or iPad and select Activity from the menu bar at the bottom of the screen. Select “Stand Hours” from the list of activities and review how many hours of standing have been credited throughout each day.

By taking a few simple steps each day, you can easily achieve your daily Stand goal with your Apple Watch!
