This will allow users to filter out specific Apple Fitness+ workouts by allowing them to choose which body area they want to target. For example, you can filter out all the ‘Upper body’ related workouts or Filter all workouts that require ‘Dumbbels’ for the workout.
You can use ‘No Equipment’ as a filter to only check out the workout videos that do not need any specialized exercise equipment.
Here is how you filter workouts in Apple Fitness+
- Open Apple Fitness app and navigate to the Fitness+ tab
- From the top, select a category for the workout. You can choose between:
- HIIT
- Yoga
- Core
- Strength
- Treadmill
- Cycling
- Rowing and more
- Now on the next screen, tap on Filter button
- Make your selections using the filter presets
- In this example, we selected ‘Upper Body’ focussed Strength workouts that use dumbbells and use Hip/Hop Music.
- This will show you all the workouts that meet your criteria
Tap on ‘Clear All’ at the top to reset all the filters.
You can also sort the workouts now by music, time, trainer or most recent workouts to see the new workouts that were released by Apple.
Apple Fitness+ also released the new season for its popular ‘Time to Walk’ series. If you have not checked out the new content, feel free to check it out. If you are new to Apple Fitness+, you can check out the ‘Season 1 Highlights’ from Time to Walk.
Now, If we can get support for Multiple users and curated schedules, Apple Fitness+ will become even more feature-rich and useful for its subscribers.

I have been using Apple Fitness since May and is clear that Apple wants to learn how to walk before they start running. I would love to be able to see the following:
– programs curated to hit specific targets. Ie 5k run, half marathon, ect
– longer workouts
– ability to schedule workouts
– ability to filter out workouts already completed
– be able to compare workouts already completed, to see if you did better/worse
– get more clarity as to what a workout is targeting, IE strength, what muscles
I’m sure I have more, but these are the ones that come to mind at the moment.

Would love to see them have more programs (4 week kickstart program) like the Nike Training app.
