How can I download the Apple Fitness app on my IPad Air 4th generation?

  • I recently bought an iPad Air 4th Generation and was so looking forward to using the Apple Fitness+ app. When I tried downloading the app on the App Store, it says my iPad is not compatible. I can’t believe the latest version of iPad Air is not supported but the iPad Air 3rd Generation is. Please help.

Your iPad needs more that just the app.

Here are the requirements needed to use the Fitness+ app and Watch with a iPadOS compatible iPad.

Your iPad needs to be updated to the latest iPadOS 14.3 or later.

You need a compatible Watch ( series 3 or later ) updated to its latest WatchOS version.

No options

The Fitness+ app will ask to automatically link the Watch to your iPad/ Fitness+ app, after the download of the Fitness+ app from the iOS App Store.

See the iPad/iPhone instructions here below.

Also, make sure all connected Apple devices are using the same Apple ID/password account information.


In addition, there is no TV mirroring of the  Fitness+ app, using iPad, currently.

Currently there is no direct AirPlay/screen mirroring from an iPad to any other compatible smart TV or smart device using AirPlay2.

Apple, currently has ONLY made the mirroring/AirPlay 2 feature available to owners/users of an actual Apple TV box.



Best of Luck to You!
