As one of the primary reasons many people use a smartwatch, fitness and health tracking comes in many forms. Everyone has preferences for using a smartwatch for these purposes, from initiating a workout from your favorite fitness app on your watch to automatically tracking sleep at night. Some folks need a nudge now and then to remind themselves to get up and move around. Whether it's because you've fallen into a productivity hole or you're in the zone during an intense gaming session, reminders can come in handy. They can also be annoying for some. So, here's how to change movement reminders on the Pixel Watch.
