Wahoo Fitness has announced a significant evolution of its software platform with the introduction of the Wahoo App, which now functions as a connected training ecosystem that consolidates insights, workouts, and performance data across both cycling and running. This effectively moves beyond the company's traditional hardware focus to offer a more integrated digital experience.
The Wahoo App introduces a three-tier subscription model—Base, which is included with compatible hardware, as well as Core for advanced metrics, and Pro for personalized workout recommendations and a comprehensive library. The Wahoo App also boasts new running-specific capabilities such as Three-Dimensional Pace (3DP), which profiles threshold, maximal aerobic, and anaerobic capacity in a manner analogous to the cycling-focused Four-Dimensional Power (4DP) system. It has expanded third-party compatibility through a recent integration with COROS.
