Removing someone on Fitness app

Exiles87,

Thanks for getting back in touch with us.

If you tap “Hide my Activity”, you’ll remain friends in the Fitness app and you’ll still see your friend’s activity, but they won’t see your activity.

However, if you tap on "Remove Friend," that friend is removed from your list of friends, and you're also removed from their list of friends. Taking this step also removes all related activity data.

Have a great day!

Hello Exiles87,

Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities. We'd like to offer you our support.

No, if you remove a friend from the Fitness app, they are not removed from the Phone app. After you remove a friend, they simply won't be able to see your activity, and you won't be able to see their activity. Check out the section "Stop sharing" in the Apple Support article below to learn more about your options:

Share your Activity and compete with friends with your Apple Watch

We hope this information is useful. Kind regards.
