Apple Fitness+ costs $9.99/month or $79.99/year. It was originally included free for 3 months with Apple Watch purchases — which is how most people ended up subscribed and forgot about it. The workouts are polished, but YouTube has thousands of free workout channels that are just as good. Here's how to cancel.
Fitness+ is designed to sell more Apple Watches — real-time heart rate on screen, Watch-based metrics, Activity Ring integration. But you don't need any of this to work out. Your phone's health app tracks steps, and free apps like Nike Training Club do guided workouts without an Apple Watch.
Fitness+ is included in Apple One Premier ($36.95/month). If you have Apple One, canceling Fitness+ means downgrading your entire bundle. Check Settings → Subscriptions to see if you're on Apple One. You might save more by switching to the Individual ($19.95) or Family ($25.95) plan and dropping Fitness+ entirely.
The Apple Watch fitness tracking that most people care about (rings, steps, heart rate, workout logging) is completely free and doesn't require Fitness+.
