Apple Offers New Apple Watch Activity Challenges for Earth Day and International Dance Day

There are a pair of Apple Watch Activity Challenges set for April. In addition to the usual annual Earth Day Challenge, a new International Dance Day Challenge will be offered for the first time.

The new dancing-related challenge comes in the wake of Apple’s launch of Apple Fitness+, which offers a category of dancing workouts.

Apple Watch users will be notified about these two Activity Challenges prior to when they begin. The details on the two challenges are as follows:

• April 22, 2021: Earth Day Challenge: Let’s get out and celebrate the planet on Earth Day, April 22. Do any workout for 30 minutes or more to earn this award. Record your time with the Workout app or any app that adds workouts to Health.
• April 29, 2021: International Dance Day Challenge: Let’s groove! April 29 is International Dance Day. Earn this award by doing a Dance workout of 20 minutes or more. Record your time with the Workout app.

The Apple Watch Activity Challenges are designed to promote the use of the Watch for fitness. Completing any of the challenges with any workout app that saves information to Apple’s Fitness app will unlock the achievement on the Apple Watch, iPhone, and in Apple’s Messages app.
