There are two ways into CalCoach. If you have a coach, they send you a join link. If you don't, you can sign up in the app yourself.

Your coach shares a link that starts with app.calcoach.com/join/. Coaches find it in the app under Account → Copy Invite Link.

  1. Open the link in your browser.
  2. Create an account, or log in if you already have one. You join your coach's organisation automatically.
  3. Download the CalCoach app from the App Store or Google Play.
  4. Open the app, tap Log in and use the same email and password.

Sign up in the app

On the welcome screen, tap Don't have a coach yet? Sign Up, then Sign up with Email.

  1. Enter your email address.
  2. Create a password of at least 10 characters.
  3. Enter the verification code we email you.
  4. Add your first name, last name and a username (at least 3 characters).

The app supports email sign-up only. Apple and Google sign-in are not offered.

Set up your plan

After signing up, the app asks a short series of questions so it can build your plan. These cover your goal and what motivates you, your activity level and workouts, your gender, date of birth, height and weight, your target weight and how quickly you want to get there. You then see a preview of your plan and can connect Apple Health or Health Connect, turn on reminders and say how you heard about us before you review everything.

Logging in

Tap Log in on the welcome screen and enter your email or username with your password. If you've forgotten it, tap Forgot password? and we'll email you a reset code.

To change your password once you're logged in, go to Account → Account Details → Change Password.
