If you're using an Apple Watch, the data that comes through to The My Virtual Mission App is either daily steps or workouts.

An outdoor cycle "workout" will come through to the app as cycling. This is so cycling workouts can be distinguished from other workouts.

Other workouts that are distance-based activities will come through as a distance. These won't be visible in the pending distance section.

If you are completing more than one mission, you can set different posting preferences for each. You will need to follow the steps below for each mission.
