Peloton has released a new Apple TV app, allowing users to workout using their televisions.

The home exercise company is perhaps the most famous of the many home exercise companies that have seen a boom as users in lockdown look to keep fit without being able to easily go outdoors.

Until now, users have only been able to access their workouts through Peloton's hardware – its bike or its treadmill – or the apps on other platforms such as the iPad. While the company has an app for Amazon's Fire TV, no such option has been available for Apple users.

Now people with the more recent versions of the Apple TV will be able ot download the company's app and view them on their televisions.
