How to switch Apple Watch Activity distances from km to miles
- Open up the Health app on your iPhone
Rather than this being managed by the Activity app, it’s actually done via Health
- Head to the Walking & Running Distance screen
Click on the “Browse” tab at the bottom, then select “Activity” and then the “Walking & Running Distance” card
- Find the options
Scroll to the bottom of this screen, where there is a section named “Options”.
- Change the units
At the bottom is one named “Unit”. Click on this, and change from “km” to “mi”.
- Check Activity
Head into the Activity app information and you should now find your distances show as miles.
