How to Cast Peloton to TV: Best Methods for On-Screen Metrics

Using the Peloton app on a TV makes it so much easier to view your workouts!

You can get a better idea of the proper form for specific exercises in addition to having a more immersive experience than viewing classes on a mobile device.

Trust me, I’ve done plenty of classes on my iPhone 12, and viewability makes such a difference.

My eyes are definitely not as good as they used now that I’m in my 30’s but I think the ability to watch classes on a larger screen can alleviate eye strain even for those with 20/20 vision!

Did you know that the average North American TV is 55.5 inches?

That’s a heck of a lot larger than the 5″ to 6″ phone screens the average person tends to spend most of their day looking at.

How to Screen Mirror Peloton App from an iPhone, iPad, or Android Device

Screen Mirroring vs Smart TV App

Have an Apple Watch and watch to use it as a heart rate monitor for your TV workouts?

Unfortunately, you can’t link your Apple watch directly to Peloton App on Smart TV!

But you CAN link it to the app on your phone.

Personally, I like to see my metrics while I’m working out and if let’s say, I’ve been in zone 2 for a while, this visual often motivates me to push myself a bit harder.

Screen mirroring from your phone shows your Heart Rate on your Smart TV!

When you use the app on your phone and watch, the calories you burn are estimated by your heart rate in combination with the data you’ve entered into the Peloton app – like your gender, age, and weight.

Using your Apple Watch for workouts adds heart rate as a factor in estimating your burned calories.

And if you’ve set up Move goals on your watch, it could make a difference in reaching them!

How to Stream Peloton to TV: Best Methods

The two easiest ways to stream the Peloton app to your TV are:

1. Download the Peloton App on your Smart TV
2. Screen mirror from your mobile device

While the Peloton App on Smart TV’s is a convenient way to view your workouts on a big screen, using the Peloton app on your phone allows you to see your heart rate when you link it to a smart watch!

Thus, screen mirroring also displays your heart rate and gives a better estimate of the calories you’ve burned during Peloton classes.
