# appleMoveTime

The amount of time the user spent performing activities that involve full-body movements during the specified day.

```
var appleMoveTime: HKQuantity { get set }
```

## Discussion

Move time measures every full minute where the watch detects active, full-body movements, like walking, running, or playing in the playground. For younger users, HealthKit’s activity summary can track move time instead of active energy burned. For more information, see [`HKActivityMoveMode.appleMoveTime`](/documentation/HealthKit/HKActivityMoveMode/appleMoveTime).

The [`HKQuantity`](/documentation/HealthKit/HKQuantity) object for this property must use units of time, such as [`hour()`](/documentation/HealthKit/HKUnit/hour()), [`minute()`](/documentation/HealthKit/HKUnit/minute()), or [`second()`](/documentation/HealthKit/HKUnit/second()).
