Apple fitness plus not working on Apple TV

Anyone else having an issue with 4K Apple TV not being able to connect to the Apple fitness plus?

Pairing the watch to the TV doesn’t actually happen. I open Bluetooth on the Apple TV and the watch never shows up (and vice versa on the watch). I used Fitness+ successfully on the Apple TV the first time, but now it only says for me to open the workouts app on the watch to connect, but when I do that, nothing happens at all. When using my the fitness+ app on my phone it connects properly to the watch, but on the TV .... nothing. And yes, it’s the same account, same Wi-Fi network and everything across all devices.


I’ve seen other people suggesting a factory reset, but I don’t think that, considering the prices we pay for these devices, factory resetting should be the answer to so many problems. It’s a long and tedious process. Yes, it’s easier with Apple products than others, but it still requires quite a wait.


So much for “it just works” ... >_>
