Apple designed the brand new Fitness+ service to work with a paired Apple Watch because the Apple Watch is supposed to permit you to monitor your metrics when you observe alongside on a exercise, however because it seems, an Apple Watch is not strictly essential to make use of the Fitness+ app on an iPhone or iPad.
When beginning a Fitness+ exercise on iPhone or iPad whenever you’re not sporting an Apple Watch, the app asks if you wish to start a exercise with out the watch. You can do your entire exercise sans watch, however after all no metrics present up on the iPhone or iPad’s show.
This is just not, nonetheless, doable on Apple TV. When utilizing Fitness+ with the Apple TV, Apple requires a synced and related Apple Watch. Attempting to do a exercise on Apple TV with out the watch will solely allow you to preview a exercise, fairly than start one.
It’s not clear why Apple is permitting exercises to be finished on an iPhone or iPad with out an Apple Watch whereas that very same performance doesn’t work with the Apple TV, however the service was meant for an Apple Watch and is not ideally suited for non-Apple Watch homeowners.
