How we compiled this
Pricing fetched from official vendor pricing pages and iOS App Store listings (apps.apple.com/us) as the primary USD source, then independently verified against reputable comparison sources during adversarial review. The App Store listing is treated as an authoritative USD source because it is served in US dollars regardless of server geo-location. Several official sites (whoop.com, strava.com, fitbit.com, myfitnesspal.com) geo-detected the research server as EU and served EUR pricing; for those, USD figures were confirmed via independent comparison sources and/or App Store IAP listings. ADVERSARIAL-REVIEW CORRECTIONS (2026-06-14): (1) WHOOP USD prices, previously recorded as null due to EUR geo-block, were confirmed from a reputable comparison source and filled in (One $199/yr, Peak $239/yr, Life $359/yr; new members are annual-only, monthlyUsd shown as the annualized equivalent). (2) Fitbit Premium annual price corrected from a stale $79.99/yr to the current $99.99/yr (rises May 19 2026 alongside the Fitbit->Google Health rebrand; monthly unchanged at $9.99). (3) MyFitnessPal Premium monthlyUsd corrected $9.99->$19.99. (4) MyFitnessPal Premium+ monthlyUsd corrected $19.99->$24.99 and the fabricated $49.99/yr annual replaced with the confirmed $99.99/yr. (5) Future first-month introductory price corrected $50->$99. Apple Fitness+ ($9.99/$79.99), Peloton App One ($15.99 App Store IAP) and App+ ($28.99), and Strava ($11.99/mo, $79.99/yr) were re-verified and left unchanged. accessedAt = 2026-06-14 on all sources.
