The PAPPA beta

We are letting people in a few at a time, so we can listen to the first testers and improve PAPPA before more people join. Here is how it works, and what to expect.

What to expect

  • It is free

    PAPPA is free during the beta. No payment or pricing applies, and there is nothing to cancel.

  • A person lets you in

    Sign up and confirm your email, and your account is created. The last step is a person approving you, and we let you know when that happens. Until then you can sign in, but you cannot use the app.

  • The number of places is fixed

    Places are limited and offered by invitation or approval. We do not publish how many places have been taken.

  • It is a web app

    PAPPA is a web app that installs to your home screen, so there is nothing to download from an app store.

  • No live heart-rate straps yet

    Reading a heart-rate strap live is switched off in the beta. You can type in your heart-rate numbers, or import a Garmin .FIT file after the workout.

  • Food numbers are estimates

    Calories and macros depend on the food entry you pick and the portion you choose, so treat them as good estimates, not measurements. A photo is the weakest way to measure a portion.

  • Things will change

    This is a closed beta. Screens move, and some things will break. If something does, log out and back in first, then report what you were doing and roughly when.

PAPPA is a tracking and planning guide. It is not medical advice and not a substitute for your coach or your doctor, and no outcome is guaranteed.
