Peloton\u2019s making it easier for Apple Watch users to close their rings. Today, the company announced a new Apple Watch integration for the original Bike, Bike Plus, and Tread. <\/p>\n

According to a Peloton blog<\/a>, the Peloton watch app will notify users any time they start a class on the Bike, Bike Plus, or Tread. It\u2019ll also work for classes started on the app. Users can also choose to proactively start recording workouts. If enabled, the Apple Watch can also double as a heart rate monitor so you can view Peloton\u2019s Strive Score feature. The Strive Score is a metric that tells users how much time they spend in a specific heart rate zone. It\u2019ll also make it easier to log Peloton workouts in Apple\u2019s Activity app. <\/p>\n

The integration isn\u2019t automatic, however. You have to go through a one-time setup process. First, make sure the Peloton app is on both your phone (or tablet) and the Apple Watch. From there, open the Peloton app on your phone and tap the \u201cMore\u201d tab. Select \u201cApple Watch,\u201d then \u201cSet Up,\u201d and \u201cConnect to Health app.\u201d That should then bring up the Health app. Grant whichever health permissions you\u2019re comfortable with \u2014 keeping in mind that if you deny any metrics, it may affect how well the integration works. After that, head back to the Peloton app and hit \u201cDone.\u201d Finally, when the Apple Watch app asks for notification permissions, tap \u201cAllow.\u201d<\/p>\n

That might seem like a lot, but it\u2019s fairly typical for integrating a fitness app with Apple Health. This also isn\u2019t the first time we\u2019ve seen this sort of feature. It\u2019s similar to how GymKit, Apple\u2019s proprietary fitness API, allows you to record workouts on NFC-enabled exercise equipment on the Apple Watch. The ability to start recording from your wrist is also reminiscent of Apple\u2019s own Fitness Plus service.<\/p>\n

Previously, only the Bike Plus supported any kind of Apple Watch integration via GymKit. However, there was a dustup when Peloton removed GymKit support<\/a> for its Bootcamp workouts. Technically, GymKit wasn\u2019t able to support Bootcamp workouts<\/a> as they switched between cardio and strength training. However, that was a GymKit-specific issue. Peloton says that the new integration will allow users to track all workouts on every Peloton machine. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
