If you buy an Apple Watch or another product from the company, they offer you 3 free months to try Apple Fitness+so if you have never used it, it is likely that if you are going to hire it, you will have at least 30 days of trial, that is, after reading my opinion, you will be able to subscribe on your own, without paying anything, to try it out.
During this time, I have used the app a lot, I am not going to deny it, however, everything it offers seems interesting to me, as long as it was free, since the payment (9.90 euros per month) seems excessive to me, especially all because of some cons and disadvantages that we will analyze below.
Is Apple Fitness+ worth it?
As I said, it is not a bad service, and if you have an Apple Watch, it can be very interesting, however, there are cons that make paying for it not worth it, at least in my case. Let’s look at them point by point, although not all of them may affect you.
- Apple Watch required: If you don’t have this smartwatch, you can forget about even trying it, since everything revolves around it, and if you don’t have one, you’d better watch any YouTube video, since you’ll achieve the same thing.
- Only in English: Although to play sports it is not necessary to know much of the original language, everything is in English, and despite having subtitles, it is pleasant to listen to a class in Spanish, something that today we do not have, not even a few, so yes If you don’t control this language well, it will be a big handicap, at least, as I said, if you also have to pay for it.
- Does not allow downloading videos: Currently, we will need a network connection to be able to use this app, something that, unlike the rest, prevents us from going on vacation for a few days and using preloaded videos to train.
There are more disadvantages, although these are more than enough, at least in my case, since in the end we have very well prepared classes with a very extensive catalog, but they do not offer us anything that we cannot find in free YouTube videos that We also have very qualified and equally interesting people in Spanish.
Therefore, in my case, if it were a free Apple service, I might continue using it, especially due to the integration of the Apple Watch, but in this case, 9.90 euros per monthdespite not being a large amount, it seems excessive to me, and I would only reconsider it if they added Spanish as the original language, and not subtitles. It is true that there are family plans, but in this case it is not very common for everyone to use the app, so it is not usually profitable.
And you, have you been able to try this service? What disadvantages and advantages do you see? Do you think the price is adequate, or would you like it to be lower? Leave us a comment with all your opinions on the matter, and see if Apple considers including more languages and types of exercises so that the rest of the world can enjoy, for the same price that an American pays, their native language.
