Peloton App comes to UK with Amazon

  • Today we’re excited to bring the Peloton App to Fire TV streaming devices and smart TVs in the US, UK, and Canada

  • Fire TV has more than 37 million active users all over the world; Fire TV is the #1 streaming media family in the US, UK, Germany, Japan, and India

  • The Peloton App for Fire TV offers a way for Peloton’s growing community of 1.6 million to experience an extensive library of fitness content that spans six workout disciplines, in addition to cycling and running.

  • With the help of Fire TV, these disciplines, which include strength, yoga, meditation, stretching, bootcamp and cardio, can now be enjoyed on the biggest screen in the home, in addition to on a phone or tablet.

  • The Peloton App on Fire TV allows members to fully browse and navigate the Peloton platform using their TV remote, offering the full in-class experience, which includes workout timeline and countdown, closed captioning and estimated calorie count.

  • Fire TV customers can use Alexa to open and play/pause their Peloton workout by either speaking into their Alexa Voice Remote, a paired Echo device, or the all-new 2nd Gen Fire TV Cube with Alexa built in. Try these:
    • “Alexa, open Peloton App” 
    • “Alexa, pause” 
    • “Alexa, play”

Do I need special equipment?

Many of the classes can be done without additional equipment, but for the classes that do require equipment, you can see what you’ll need in the class preview so that you can grab everything before tuning in. The strength and bootcamp classes that are not specifically marked as “bodyweight” classes typically use hand weights, though you don’t need a specific weight brand or weight amount (instructors will recommend light, medium, or heavy, but ultimately it’s up to you). Some of the yoga classes use blocks and straps, but we recommend using a yoga mat for all of the classes to prevent from slipping.

What kinds of classes are available?

The Peloton App offers a collection of thousands of live and on-demand health and fitness classes, including strength training, cardio, toning, yoga, stretching, meditation, running, and cycling classes right in your own living room on the largest screen in your home, essentially turning your home into a private fitness studio. And, they have classes that can fit any kind of schedule from quick 10-minute classes to 60-minute classes. Plus, runners and cyclists with their own equipment can now run or bike with Peloton instructors using their TV.

How do I find the Peloton App on my Fire TV?

Finding and downloading the Peloton App on Fire TV is easy. You can either search for it via text search or just ask Alexa. Hold down the microphone button on your Alexa Voice Remote, speak to a paired Echo device, or to your Fire TV Cube and say, “Alexa, open Peloton.”
