Fitness App won’t open

I upgraded my iPhone to a 12. I had to reinstall some apps for it to work. The Fitness App will not open on my phone. It works on my watch. I tried to reinstall it but it won’t open or come back to my Home Screen.

Hello CJMinor,


Thank you for reaching out in Apple Support Communities. We understand you're unable to access and use the Fitness app on your iPhone. We'll be happy to help and point you in the right direction.


We recommend to verify that you have the latest version of iOS 14.5.1 and watchOS 7.4.1 installed on both devices. Here's two helpful articles on how to perform each step:


  1. Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
  2. Update your Apple Watch


Then, you'll want to make sure that there's no content and privacy restrictions turned on for the Fitness app. To verify that, please go to Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > Allowed Apps. You'll want to have, "Fitness" toggled on.


Please keep us posted with the results.


Kind regards.
