Apple Fitness+ wins special prizes in iOS 16


iOS 16 now offers special awards for Apple Fitness+ workouts, as of the third developer beta.


iPhone Awards Feature2
In iOS 15, activity awards are earned by completing specific challenges, such as achieving a new Move ring record, having a perfect week of training, or reaching 100 Move goals. The awards can be won with or without Fitness+ workouts, but in ‌iOS 16‌, Apple offers users a new way to celebrate their Fitness+ achievements.


The new awards, added in the third developer beta of ‌iOS 16‌, relate to specific Fitness+ workouts and categories and are recognizable by their unique shape.


It is not yet clear how many Fitness+ awards there are to win, but MacRumors has received new awards for completing Fitness+ workout milestone numbers, both in terms of total workouts in categories and individual categories, Fitness+ workout stripes, and best workouts for individual categories, as well as awards for the first time a new Fitness+ workout category has been completed.


Awards are retroactively available for completed Fitness+ workouts that meet an award's criteria, but users may not see the new awards on their devices until they complete their next Fitness+ workout.


In addition to the new Fitness+ awards, Apple has also added new standard awards for milestone running distances, starting at three miles.


In addition to new activity awards, ‌iOS 16‌ brings the Fitness app to all iPhone users, even if they don't use an Apple Watch, allowing them to set a daily Move goal and see how their active calories help close their Move ring.


Thank you, Dominic!
