Fitness + app not available

I updated my iphone x to the latest iOS but still canā€™t get fitness + app and see the message ā€˜This app requires specific features not available on this deviceā€™ help!

Sadly I learned through Communities, that the reason you cannot download the fitness+ app is because you donā€™t have an Apple Watch attached to your phone. Apparently, it is a requirement.

The Apple phone support agent I spoke with had no knowledge of this and wasted (literally) hours of my time trying to troubleshoot a problem that had a simple answer.


im surprised no one else responded to your post. Itā€™s hard to believe that you and I are the only ones with this question. I hope Iā€™ve answered it for you.
