About Apple Fitness+
Apple Fitness+ is a subscription service of trainer-led video workouts and meditations, found in the Fitness app on iPhone and also available on iPad and Apple TV. It covers 12 workout types, including strength, HIIT, yoga, Pilates, cycling, rowing, treadmill and dance, with new sessions added every week ranging from about 5 to 45 minutes. Custom Plans build a schedule from your favourite activities, trainers and session lengths. With an Apple Watch, AirPods Pro 3 or a Bluetooth heart rate monitor, live metrics such as heart rate and calories appear on screen during a workout. An iPhone is all you strictly need, and a subscription can be shared with up to five family members. It is a paid monthly or annual service, also sold in the Apple One bundle, with a free trial for new subscribers. It only works on Apple devices, and it is a class library rather than a GPS activity tracker.
Best for: iPhone and Apple Watch owners who want guided home workouts tied into their Activity rings.
