Apple Fitness+ is now available in Japan as of January 21, 2026, marking a significant expansion of Apple’s award-winning fitness and wellness service to the market. The service delivers 12 types of workouts and meditations — including Pilates, yoga, dance, strength training, and core—ranging from 5 to 45 minutes. Content requires little to no equipment, suiting small spaces and busy schedules. Sessions feature 28 inclusive trainers, Japanese subtitles, and digital translation audio generated from the trainers’ actual voices. New episodes with Japanese audio arrive weekly. Music plays a central role, with playlists spanning upbeat anthems, latest hits, chill vibes, and pure dance, incorporating global genres like K-Pop and J-Pop. The “Artist Spotlight” series highlights Japanese duo YOASOBI, featuring workouts set to their songs. The “Time to Walk” series includes episodes with comedian/actor Nao Watanabe (available now) and “Drops of God” actor and musician Tomohisa Yamashita (starting next month). Fitness+ integrates seamlessly with Apple devices via the Fitness app on iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV. Compatible setups include iPhone 8 or later (iOS 16.1+), or older models paired with Apple Watch Series 3 and later. Real-time metrics—heart rate, calories burned, Move ring progress appear onscreen with Apple Watch or AirPods Pro 3. A calorie burn comparison bar is available for select workouts like HIIT, cycling, and rowing. Custom plans personalize schedules based on preferences for activity, duration, trainers, and music. Playlists save to Apple Music (subscription required). Pricing in Japan is ¥980 monthly or ¥7,800 annually, with Family Sharing for up to five members. Jay Blahnik, Apple’s Vice President of Fitness Technologies, stated: “We are thrilled to bring the Fitness+ experience to Japan. With seamless integration with iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV, Fitness+ makes it easy to work out or meditate anytime, anywhere… When users have an Apple Watch or AirPods Pro 3, personal fitness metrics appear in real-time on the screen, further motivating them.” Promotions include up to three months free for au/UQ mobile subscribers, Benefit Station members, and eligible device buyers; two months for new Anytime Fitness members (Fitness+ is included in Anytime Fitness memberships); and one month standard for new subscribers. This launch follows a December 2025 announcement of Fitness+ expansion to 28 markets, with Japanese dubbing, bringing the total to 49 countries and regions.
