What's New in JOIN Cycling Coach App

October 29, 2026

WHOOP Readiness integration Let your recovery shape your training. Connect WHOOP and JOIN reads your daily WHOOP Recovery score into JOIN Readiness, easing your plan back on low days and giving you the green light to push when you're recovered. WHOOP syncs in the background, so there's nothing to do each day. Connect WHOOP in Settings then Connected accounts.

Poor Apple Health integration

Doesn’t read my walks or runs from Apple Health. Doesn’t use recovery metric (through HRV or sleep data).

Doesn’t even load weight data, it has to be manually entered.

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback and we are sorry to hear this has been a frustrating experience. It is worth clarifying that JOIN and Relive are two completely separate apps, so unfortunately the integrations available in one do not carry over to the other. That said, we completely understand that having to use Strava as an intermediary is an extra step that not everyone wants. We appreciate you flagging this and will pass the request for direct Apple Health integration on to our product team for consideration. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts, feedback like this genuinely helps us improve.

Highly recommend! Been the best thing for my cycling fitness

Absolutely loved my time using Join Cycling! When I was feeling lost with what to do and unsure if I’m riding enough or too much it gave me an excellent plan! Can’t stress how much I recommend trying this app, trust me it’s worth it!

Gutes Gefühl bei der Sache :)

Bin jetzt seit zwei Wochen dabei und fühl mich gut. Fordert zwar durchaus etwas mehr aber in einem guten Maß. Langweilig wird’s auch nicht durch die vielen verschiedenen Pläne.
MyWoosh benötigt zwar dann einen „Workaround“ aber trotzdem cool.

Flexibility in Training

This app gives flexibility in training. I have a non traditional work week and it can adjust for longer rides not on Sunday. It also takes your input and adjusts the workouts. I’m training for Unbound 200 and I’m giving this a try. So far it’s doing well

False advertising

Within the app it literally says: “gift your friends 30 days of join & receive one month of join for free”. This isnt true. What you actually have to do is get a friend to pay for a years subscription to get a month for free. Thats false advertising and I dont like being lied to by a company, why not just be honest and say “get a friend to subscribe and get a month free”.

Also the app is very basic and lacks functionality you cant select how the app interprets a work out you have done. If you dont do the work out it suggests it wont assess the work out you have actually done (and then adjust your plan afterwards accordingly) but just assess it against the workout it at some point in time wanted you to do.
Which will also change randomly if you change the self determined effort score on a previous activity.
Has no understanding of any activity other than cycling and running, so even football which is mostly running it doesn’t understand.
The “support” desk has a very strange way of dealing with customers and will admonish you for not exactly pressing buttons in the right order!
Use a desktop AI agent, its more flexible, more detailed and tailored to what work outs you do and surprisingly its more personable (!) and free. V costly app for something so basic and with such poor customer service.
Having to work hard to make sure the app is doing the right thing is too much of a pain and not worth it.

Response from developer

Good afternoon Thank you for the detailed feedback, and you are right on several points. On the referral wording, the full terms are listed on our landing page but you are right that the in-app wording itself does not make this clear. We are working on improving this. On workout reassignment, if you complete a different activity than suggested, JOIN will not automatically link it and the original session stays open until marked otherwise. Sync timing from connected devices can also delay this and cause confusing reassessments, which is frustrating and something we continue to work on. On other sports, cycling and running are the only structured disciplines JOIN plans for. Other activities like football can still sync and have RPE added, but JOIN will not plan sessions for them. On your support experience, I am sorry. That is not the tone we aim for when we communicate with our users. Thank you for giving JOIN a real try.
