See activity and health reports for family members
After setting up daily activity goals, you can see how active your family member was each day. With your family member’s permission, you can also view their health information.
Set up activity goals for a family member
For children with a managed Apple Watch, move goals are based on move minutes instead of active calories. The exercise goal focuses on minutes of brisk activity (such as running, jumping, and playing), and outdoor run, walk, and cycle workouts are tailored to children under 13.
If you manage an Apple Watch for a family member, you can change from an under-13 to over-13 fitness experience, regardless of the family member’s actual age.
On the iPhone used to manage the watch, open the Apple Watch app.
Tap All Watches, then tap the watch under Family Watches.
Tap Done, tap Activity, then turn “Under 13 years old” off or on.
The family member can also do this on their Apple Watch by opening the Settings app on their Apple Watch, tapping Activity, then turning “Under 13 years old” on or off.
