#2I wouldn't want to be Peleton, Mirror, or one of those similar companies. Is it worth the extra $1000+ up front and $30+ monthly for the Peleton and Mirror trainers to mention your name?

#3I think Apple Fitness+ will be fine as a standalone product, but I believe this is a stepping off point for more fully fledged fitness products from Apple.
Using their AR technology (iPad/iPhone/etc), they can replicate a lot of the same functionality a multi-thousand dollar product like the Tempo provides. They can automatically correct form, recognize weights, etc.

#4What I dream of is a health monitor watch that's built from open hardware and gives me complete control over and ownership of my data. I don't trust any profit-driven company, even Apple, with such private information.
EDIT: thanks to obenn, who pointed me towards [1]. Still in development, but looks promising.

If Apple did this for home workouts I would subscribe to Fitness+ in a heartbeat. I currently practice yoga at home, and the worst part is I don't have an instructor to correct my form.

#6While I'm certainly annoyed that this is a blatant ripoff of so many services out there already - more than anything, it just looks like a real snoozefest of a product. Beyond that, where does the App Store insanity stop? Is Apple going to pull a Fortnite and kick exercise apps off next for "duplicating core Apple products"?

Even if Apple is directly aligning their profits with the protection of your private data?

I trust Apple... enough, to use their Health app, but I don't like the watch. An Apple Watch, without the screen and apps, which can store data and just sync with your phone next time their in range of each other would be nice.
If you don't where a watch, and don't carry your phone with you everywhere, there doesn't seem to be any good fitness tracker, which also integrate with Apples Health app.

#9So there wasn't a new iPhone announcement today?? I only saw bits and pieces of the announcement but it seems no one is talking about this.

How hard could it be to synthesize that with deepfakes?
