Welcome to our guide on how to join the TrainerRoad Beta Program. By participating in our beta program, you'll get early access to new features and updates, and your feedback will help us improve the TrainerRoad experience for all users.
Here, you'll receive guidance on joining the TrainerRoad Beta Program for iOS, Android, Mac, and Windows. All participants in the Beta program will need an active TrainerRoad subscription to participate.
Notice before joining the beta program:
While beta software gives you the opportunity to try new features before they're available to the public, it's important to understand that it is not a final product. Beta versions of TrainerRoad are stable, but they may crash. If you encounter a problem, please let us know!
iOS
We have to enforce a participant limit for our iOS beta program. If you signed up for it and we’ve reached capacity, you will be notified. There is no participant limit for our Windows, Mac, and Android beta programs.
Note: There may be a short wait from the time you sign up for the iOS beta program and when you are approved. This is because we have to manually approve each iOS beta tester.
Apple's TestFlight: We use this platform to help us manage our iOS Beta program. You can read more about it here: Apple TestFlight. You can also view a breakdown of the requirements and how to platform works when signing up for the Beta.
