the Bike+ with Apple Music or Spotify to easily save songs you hear during
workouts. When you hear a track you like, press the heart icon next to the song
name, and it will be added to a playlist called “My Peloton Music” on your
connected streaming accounts. During a class, you can adjust the volume using
physical buttons on the right side of the screen.
A progress bar at the top of the screen shows how much time has elapsed and
remains in the workout. Something that may annoy you about Peloton is that
you can’t pause workouts, but this is intentional. Peloton says the lack of a
pause button helps “ensure that you work as hard as you would in a live indoor
cycling class.”
If you need to leave a class early, tap the exit button on the top left side of the
screen. When you exit early, you can delete the class from your workout history.
