When I start a fitness workout in Fitness+ on my iPhone, it is not finding my watch. It says "Apple Watch Unavailable". Both my phone and watch have the latest software updates, the watch is unlocked and Bluetooth is on.
i am having the same issue. My Apple Watch is connected to my iPhone. Even all metrics from Fitness app are updated. Even if I select a fitness program, the Apple Music app is also launched and synchronized.
I have restarted both my phone and watch and is not working.
Yeah, same issue here. I get the prompt to connect on my watch but then it just spins for a long time. I tried hitting cancel on my watch and "work out without watch" on my phone, which works for a while, but then the whole thing stops because "connection to the watch is lost".... which means the workout is done. Annoying because then you can't pick up where you left off in the workout. Way more trouble than its worth.
This was happening to me. I saw a few responses but my situation was a little different so I’m writing out in case anyone else has a similar situation.
My watch wasn’t paired correctly with my phone (may have happened when I got a new one) so I had to unpair the watch, pair it again, then make sure both my phone and the watch were updated. After these steps I was good to go!
I had this issue when I first started using Apple Fitness as well. I spoke to the support team and they suggested I uninstall the Apple Home app and reinstall it then restart your iPhone/iPad - it worked for me after I did this. I'm not sure what the technical connection is between this but it worked for me. Hope this helps!
Solved this by restarting the watch and phone. I had to restart twice.
I have this issue too and also can’t get restarting to fix it.. any help would be appreciated! Thanks
This worked for me on first attempt. Thank you
I have tried restarting no luck, I have tried unpairing and complete data wipe and reset of watch but still no luck. Updates have also been done. Any other ideas out there?
Same problem here! It connects just fine to iPad and AppleTV but it will not connect to the actual iPhone that it's already paired with it.
What do you mean by “ log out of icloud on the watch”, i do not see any way to log off in the watch. Thanks!
Went round and round with this one. What finally worked for me:
im still having this issue, any new ideas?
For some reason my Apple Watch just received the Watch OS update this morning, December 18th. After updating, I restarted both my iPhone and Apple Watch, and finally, Fitness+ works!
this happened to me too, the only thing that worked was unpairing the watch from my phone and wiping all the data from the watch and restarting it // factory restart.
then it worked.
Oh it worked on the AppleTV! Thank you!
Same issue. It works fine on my iPad Pro, but weirdly doesn’t register / find my watch when trying to start a workout from my iPhone.
