Can I view Premium workouts on Windows app?

[alfaromeo66]

I am a  Windows 10 user and normally uses fitbit coach app to get workouts. Now that it shut down, I am asked to use fitbit app instead. I cannot find any workouts on fitbit app. Does anyone know how to find workouts on fitbit app on windows?

Fitbit Coach was discontinued and its functionality was not moved to Premium. They only moved some of the workout videos to Premium. But you do not have for example previews or music on those videos. There is also no search functionality on Premium. Finding those videos means you have to browse through all available videos in an attempt to find them.

If you want Coach functionality in Premium there is a feature request that you can vote for. Fitbit's admission that they're not moving coach functionality can be found in this comment.

But if you're using Fitbit on Windows you don't seem to be able to access the videos at all. I haven't been able to.

@alfaromeo66 Welcome to the Fitbit Community. 

@seashore64 Hi there. Thanks for the details mentioned. 

Just wanted to jump in and share that the Premium workouts are only available through the Fitbit app on your phone. This is why you haven't been able to access Premium workouts on the Windows app. 

Learn more about it in this article What should I know about Fitbit Premium? 

Hope this helps.

Hello,

I have read through and see that many people would like to be able to watch the premium workouts on their PC.  The phone video is too small and I agree.  If we are paying for premium, I believe that when we log into fitbit on our pc's we should be able to access all the same things we can on our phone app. PLEASE PLEASE change this.  I know that I will definitely not keep the premium subscription if this doesn't change.  It is way too difficult to see the videos on y

our phone.  The fitbit coach feature which showed a preview of what exercises would be a part of the chosen video was very helpful in choosing which one I wanted to do.  Premium videos do not show you what exact exercises will be completed in the video. Most of all, however, the videos need to be able to be viewed on PC. Thanks.

@rjtegeler Welcome to the Fitbit Community.

Thanks for sharing your feedback, your comments are appreciated. Be sure that features are improved and implemented based in user's feedback. 

If you have an Android phone, you can cast Premium workouts, learn more about here. If you'd like that Premium workouts could include a list of exercises before watching the video, post your idea in our Feature Suggestion board, those are reviewed by our team and the status will change depending on Fitbit plans. 

Hope to see your idea on the board.
