Current issue on watchOS 7: Whenever you have "Exclude data from other apps" enabled in Settings of Meditate app on the Apple Watch, the meditation data is not shown. This does not happen on iPhone app.

Temporary Workaround: Set "Exclude data from other apps" switch to OFF on the Apple Watch app.

• Major change:
1) Due to API changes in watchOS, we are using Mindfulness Session Extended Runtime to keep the app running when user lowers the wrist which has a limit of 1 hour. So keeping the app running beyond 1 hour is not possible as of now.
2) If app goes to background, the meditation would get interrupted.
3) The app has a meditation time of 45 minutes as of now.

(If you have any requirement of running the meditation beyond 1 hour, do let us know so that we know the number of users affected by this.)
