UPDATE
Apple Fitness+ expands to 28 new markets
In the largest expansion since launch, the service will be available in Chile, Hong Kong, India, Japan, the Netherlands, Singapore, Taiwan, and more, and adds dubbing in Spanish, German, and Japanese
Apple today announced Apple Fitness+, the award-winning fitness and wellness service, is expanding to 28 new markets — including Chile, Hong Kong, India, the Netherlands, Singapore, Taiwan, and more — on December 15, with Japan launching early next year. As part of the service’s largest expansion since it was unveiled five years ago, hundreds of Fitness+ workouts and meditations will be digitally dubbed with a generated voice in Spanish, German, and Japanese, with more dubbed episodes added every week. Fitness+ is also introducing a new music genre to the service, K-Pop.
“Through its seamless integration across Apple devices, Fitness+ has helped inspire users to live a healthier day,” said Jay Blahnik, Apple’s vice president of Fitness Technologies. “From seeing real-time, personal metrics right onscreen with Apple Watch or AirPods Pro 3, to the ability to bring the service with you wherever you go on iPhone or iPad, we’re delivering unmatched motivation to users. We couldn’t be more excited to bring this experience to even more users around the globe with our biggest expansion yet.”
With this expansion, users in 49 countries and regions around the world can access the service’s 12 different workout types — including Strength, Yoga, HIIT, Pilates, Dance, Cycling, Kickboxing, and Meditation — with episodes ranging from five to 45 minutes on iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV. Users can supercharge their Fitness+ workouts with Apple Watch, or use AirPods Pro 3 and view personal metrics directly onscreen,1 such as heart rate, calories burned, progress on their Activity rings,2 and the Burn Bar,3 which lets users compare their effort to others who have done the same workout. With Custom Plans, Fitness+ automatically creates a personalized schedule based on users’ workout and meditation preferences, including their top activities, durations, trainers, music, and more.
Dubbing in Spanish, German, and Japanese
To help make Fitness+ even more welcoming to users around the world, the service is introducing digitally dubbed versions of workouts and meditations in Spanish and German, with Japanese dubbing to follow early next year alongside the availability of the service in Japan. The dubbed workouts and meditations feature a generated voice based on the actual voice of each of the 28 Fitness+ trainers.
Each week, users can find new episodes dubbed in these three languages, along with the original English versions. Users can choose their preferred audio language in the audio controller after starting a dubbed workout or meditation. Additionally, if users select Spanish, German, or Japanese in the Fitness app’s settings, the episode will automatically play in that language if dubbing is available.
Get Ready to Move with K-Pop
Fitness+ is turning up the volume with a new K-Pop music genre that will be available across all workout types with global hits from top artists. K-Pop joins existing music genres including Upbeat Anthems, Latest Hits, Hip-Hop/R&B, Latin Grooves, and more.
