- Fixed an issue where editing a class format through the builder could silently clear the description - When your first live preview ends, we now point you to the Library tab to make the class format your own.

- Getting started is faster and easier than ever. Pick a ready-made class template to customize, or start from a blank format like always. - The first time you preview a plan as a live session, a quick guided walkthrough shows you around. - New class categories, including Barre and Kickboxing with fresh exercises to match. The library now has over 800 exercises. - Various small fixes and polish throughout.

- Fixed a bug where finishing an abandoned or incomplete workout could incorrectly trigger the completion celebration and an App Store rating prompt. - Fixed the warning shown when starting a class with unassigned exercises so that it now correctly counts how many slots are empty. - Added a heads-up before starting a class with unassigned exercises, so you know what to expect going in. - Streamlined the welcome experience for new users by removing setup steps that could get stuck.

Studio Combos now show equipment and muscle groups right on the card as you're browsing through search results. Now it's easier to find the combo that works for your class plan.

- You can now create, search, and add combos (two or more exercises) to your class plans. - Found the perfect move while browsing? Tap "Add to a Plan" on any exercise or Studio Combo and drop it straight into a slot without backing out to find the plan first. - Studio Combos can now be found along exercises in the Exercises tab. Flip between Exercises and Combos to browse the whole library in one place. - Plus fixes to combo browsing, search, and navigation.

We're very excited about this one: Studio Combos. You could always add multiple exercises into a block slot, but we've made this into a first class feature, complete with search and filter from the exercise picker. Browse ready-made exercise combos or build your own from any two exercises, then drop the whole group into a plan slot at once. As the community adds more combos, the list will continue to grow. Exercise and combo searches have been improved behind the scenes to make it easier and more intuitive to find the exercises you're after. We tightened up the "Copy Down" functionality - where you can copy an exercise or combo from one block to another.

Milestones now feel like milestones. Celebrate with confetti and a little haptic buzz when you set up your profile, build your first class format, create your first plan, finish a plan, and teach your first class. The Plans tab now points you toward your next step and keeps up as you make progress. Fixed hard-to-read text on the feedback and rating prompt in Light Mode. Additional behind-the-scenes improvements to keep the app running well.

Share feedback anytime from Profile → Send Feedback — tell us what's working and what's not. We may occasionally ask how it's going and invite you to leave a rating (you can always say "ask me later"). Fixed an issue where exercise search results didn't scroll back to the top after running a new search.

This update makes Group Fit Studio work more smoothly with your Apple Watch and Apple Health: • Setting up Apple Health access is now simpler — you're asked once, up front, instead of being prompted again as you use different features. • After you teach a class with your Apple Watch, your heart-rate and calorie summary now syncs back to your iPhone reliably, so it's ready the moment you finish.

Class formats now have selectable colors — pick a hue per format so it stands out across your library and Plans list. Tap any past session to see the full post-class summary — heart rate trend, calories, and the exercises you taught, just like the view you saw right after class ended. The Plans list now shows recent sessions inline under each plan, with a quick link into the full history for that plan. Refreshed look across the app — cleaner page backgrounds, polished editor headers, and a tidier Timed-block chip.

• Fresh Plans tab design, with a distinct color for each class format so you can find the one you want at a glance. • After class, the completion screen now shows your heart rate and active calories from the session — read from Apple Health on your iPhone. • Keep teaching when you're off Wi-Fi or cellular: plans and class formats are now cached locally and stay usable for up to 24 hours offline. • Apple Watch refinements: clearer start-class prompt, a banner when heartrate recording pauses, and more reliable session state when the iPhone briefly loses contact. • Equipment chips now appear on every exercise row in the Exercises tab and the plan builder picker, so you can scan the catalog faster. • The up-next exercise is more visible during a live session on both iPhone and Watch.

You can now create your own exercises. Tap + on the Exercises tab to add an exercise with name, muscles, equipment, and steps — your additions show up under the new "My Exercises" filter. A new "New" filter on the Exercises tab surfaces recently published exercises so you can see what's just been added to the catalog. Profile has a "Show my name" toggle that controls whether your display name appears on exercises you've submitted that become part of the public catalog. Bug fixes and polish for the Exercises tab, including a clearer delete confirmation and quicker access to filters.

• Pick a workout type for each class format. Strength, HIIT, dance, cycling, and more — your Apple Watch records the class under the matching activity in Health, so it counts toward the right Activity ring. • More reliable Apple Watch sessions. Better recovery from interruptions, fewer stuck timers, and the iPhone and Watch stay in sync more dependably during long classes. • Stronger sign-in resilience. Smoother handling of brief network drops and expired sessions so you don't get bumped out during a class.

New: Group Fit Studio for Apple Watch — a glanceable companion for live classes. Start a class from your wrist, see what's coming next, and pause, resume, or skip without picking up your phone. The Watch mirrors your live session with current and upcoming exercise, a progress bar, and controls for your paired Apple Music playlist. Renamed "Set" to "Exercise Placeholder" throughout the app for clearer block planning. Smaller fixes to display name handling and subscription edge cases.

Apple Music is here Pair any playlist with a plan and have it play during class. Manage your music source right from your Profile.
