Meant to say latter, sorry - bought from EE. All updated. Just on the phone to Apple Support now to see if this is a common issue, whether I just need to wait, or if there is anything I need to do.
Got a tip for us?

It's working for me in Halifax. I had to restart the phone. I think because I was running the beta the restart was essential for it to show up.
Same issue here too with trial. All updated, only showing 1 month trial. Bought the S6
Doesn’t work on my iPad 5th generation. when I’m trying to download the Fitness app from the App Store it says not compatible.
I’m trying now my iPad Pro (1st gen) and Apple TV (non 4K) version.
would be very disappointing if Apple won’t in the future add the older iPads.

Updated to 14.3 and it’s there in the fitness app. I’ve been really looking forward to this... just watched previews of a good selection of the instructors... they seem horrendous! 
I’ll give it a proper try but on first look they seem to have assembled a group of near identical instructors, no variety in style, all of them really shouty and annoying.
plus the male rowing instructor has terrible form

Anyone able to get Apple TV and Apple Watch to see each other? I go to the workout app like I’m prompted, hit the ”Connect” button as prompted, it says “Connecting” for a split second then nothing happens.
Also seeing the “app not compatible“ message when i follow the link to download on the iPad. The apple website shows that link also and refers to downloading for iPad.
Now it changed the message to “this app requires specific features not available on this device” on my ipad Pro 2018.
I might be interested in this. But as I understand it, it only supports one user at a time. The way Fitness+ would be beneficial to me is if it supported at least two - my wife and I. Am I correct in the understanding that it only supports one person at a time?

Same issue Here I got my Apple Watch on the 26th of September and it's only showing 1 month trial.
Looking at Fitness+ on my iPhone, there seems to be a glaring omission with how it works. When you select a workout, there is nothing to tell you if there is any equipment required (exercise bike, rowing machine, weights) its pretty obvious for the cycling/rowing exercises but the strength, core etc its not.
I have the same issue 🤷♂️ but my watch is updated and connected to my phone!

I’m seeing required equipment listed against every video

I did the same thing. I reached out to Best Buy and they told me it would be emailed to customers today. I went to my purchase history on Best Buy and it says it was emailed but I haven't received it yet. Don't do the 3 month trial because you won't be able to get the 6 month when Best Buy finally does send them out.
Thanks for sharing this info! I was hoping I could get the 3 month trial + 6 months free from the Best Buy offer for a total of 9 free months. Too bad that’s not the case (figured as much), but good to know I should hold off to make sure I at least get 6 months.
Solved this! Just reboot iPhone and watch and connects perfectly!
Latest iPad, cellular, max memory and yet the Fitness app won’t download because of missing features. Tried it on 2 different ipads and no joy. Restarted and all the other tweaks.
