Each workout ranges from 5 minutes to 45 minutes, allowing users to choose a session that best suits their time and energy needs. These workouts are accessible on iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV.
Smart Tracking with Apple Watch
If you use Fitness+ with Apple Watch or AirPods Pro 3, real-time data is displayed on the screen during workouts. This includes details like heart rate, calories burned, Activity Rings progress, and Burn Bar, allowing users to monitor their performance.
