The ipad App should technically run well Macs (M1 and upwards), usually you can just download the app from the app store but the developers seem to not have activated this option. As the website (app.whoop.com) is the ugly duckling of the ecosystem, I would like to use the app on my mac.
(not for connecting to the whoop with bluetooth and I dont want to extract the ipa)
Hi @bradhower , thanks for feedback on the iPad app experience - I will forward it to the team!
… any news on this topic?
We need this soon 
yes, especially if they wanna stay relevant with their chatgpt implementation, otherwise ill just use claude with the data on my Mac.
Right now, I just emulated an Android device with Android Studio and ran it with a script. It works just fine, so I can’t understand why the developers chose to block it. Mac Mini M1…
Still no news on this topic?
I think more people are interested in this than Whoop might assume. Besides the interest part, I think Whoop has by now has become an app where value adding services are becoming more and more difficult to access for non-native or fluent English speakers. If Whoop isn’t capable of solving simple language barriers, then at least allow users themselves to solve this issue, that basically has zero complexity by itself.
There is a flawed assumption that because WHOOP is a premium product, its user base automatically has the flawless, high-level English required to navigate complex biometric data and chat with the AI WHOOP Coach.
Let’s look at the reality:
Severe Language Limitation: WHOOP supports only six languages.
The Translation Barrier: In the EU and South America, fluent English speakers are the minority. Even in highly proficient countries like the Netherlands, there is a massive demographic (like Baby Boomers) who can “get by” in casual English but cannot comfortably digest nuanced, medical-grade data regarding sleep and recovery in a foreign language.
This lack of language implementation is the root cause of why users need a larger screen workaround.
Enabling the iPadOS app on macOS isn’t a luxury; it’s a necessity for non-native speakers. A larger screen allows users to easily utilize desktop translation software, split-screen dictionaries, and AI tools to understand what the WHOOP Coach is actually saying.
Depriving users of the iPad app on macOS is a bizarre omission. From a software development perspective, if WHOOP built its ecosystem on a sustainable, agnostic infrastructure using standard Clean Code principles (aiming for extensibility, maintainability, and avoiding rigidity), porting a mobile/iPadOS app to macOS shouldn’t face major technical friction.
To provide some numbers to support this case
To get actual value out of the WHOOP Coach, you need a high level of English (B2+) to understand nuanced data about sleep, recovery, and biometrics. However, looking at the global population, English proficiency is highly fragmented:
While WHOOP’s core user base might score slightly higher, thousands of members still struggle with complex AI data in English.
Making iPad app available on MacOS would allow users to open WHOOP on modern macOS devices that can run code locally. This makes it incredibly easy to use built-in system translation tools, split-screen dictionaries, or larger UI layouts to truly understand the data and knowledge the WHOOP Coach is trying to offer.
What I simply don’t understand, as it’s not acceptable for a Premium Tier Service like WHOOP
I can not conclude anything else then that there must be a complete lack of problem solving capabilities at the side of WHOOP. Combine that with the fact that WHOOP as a company is disallowing users to solve the problem themselves with a structural solution that requires a one-time effort makes for a non-sustainable and highly inflammable situation.
As mentioned at the beginning of my message, I would also share my personal frustrating experience on the UI and lack of language support. A problem for which I could develop a reusable solution she could use on her MacBook, which would require from me a one-time effort and time-investment. If you compare that with the current situation, where WHOOP forces me to perform the same type of labour, with the only differences coming from the content/context, over and over again, WHOOP is creating a non-sustainable situation. My mother already wanted to ditch the WHOOP after year one, but as we were on the right track I asked her not to do so and continue providing aid. But if WHOOP is not capable of providing a solution for the lack of language offering, not allowing users to develop such a solution themselves, the answer for what happens after this year’s subscription ends is crystal clear. I. think we might organize a ceremonial ‘Ditch the Device & Burn the Band’ get-together 
.
For me (a son posting using the account of his mother who is the one with the WHOOP MG Device and a yearly 400 euro subscription) this would mean making the features that a premium service (at least from a price perspective) like Whoop offers, available to my mother. Someone who, at age 71, still runs her own business, and who is very keen when it comes to her health, longevity and biomarker tracking. I would almost call her a biohacker
. With the help of apps like SnoreLab, Whoop, SelfDecode and the use of several physical examinations and blood tests we managed to get her blood pressure down from 155 over 100 to 130 over 82 and her LDL Cholesterol from 5.6 mmol/l to 1.8 mmol/l (which equals 216.55 mg/dL to 69.60 mg/dL). This to just mention two of the health improvements for which the blueprint to success wasn’t so difficult to detect with pattern recognition and primarily aiming at the PCSK9 protein (Asset used to resolve: Repatha/evocolumab). Her obstructive sleep apnea and excessive snoring, which was high at supine position, but below treshold one one side and slightly above (9) at the other side and is now no longer detectable, while snoring went down from on average 3.5 hours to 7 minutes (Assets used to resolve: BongoRX, forced side sleeping by adding a tennis ball on the back of her sleep shirt). With the third defined probably root cause being tied to the PCDHG gene cluster, where Methylation goes wrong with age for her (Assets used to resolve and in combination with sleep apnea and snoring prevention: Methylation protocol to balance out her genetic MTHFR variant that inhibits methylation, consisting of among others 5-MTHF, methylcobalamine, pyridoxal-5-phosphate, trimethylglicin, aged garlic, nicotinamide riboside, SAM-e and various other compounds). On the latter there has also been an exciting development, as yesterday (26th of June, 2026) a huge study with 15,000 human methylation profiles spanning 17 different tissues was published in Nature ( Meta-analysis of DNA methylation aging signatures in 17 human tissues | Nature Aging ). This study is a mandatory read for everyone who ages I would say, but especially for those with a compromised MTHFR variant that already dysregulates methylation at thousands of loci without adding the factor of aging. It also entails why the methylation protocol, via restored homocysteine metabolism, was exactly the right answer in my mum’s case as it bypasses the broken MTHFR gene.
While she is perfectly able to understand this in her native language (Dutch), as she is educated in and always worked in the medical hemisphere, the lack of language options create a situation in which I need to spend tedious amounts of time on providing a view of what is visible in Whoop guided with an explanation in Dutch. She would love to ask the Whoop Coach all kinds of questions, but this AI model somehow one of the only in the world only understanding English, which is crazy to begin with. Limitations in the interface are one thing, but from an AI feature you would expect actually the opposite: no limitations, especially not on a plain vanilla AI area like multi-language responses.
WHATEVER YOU DO, JUST DO SOMETHING AND WHOOP SOME *SS PLEASE!
Good luck from Amsterdam 
, hoping that this little bit of luck is just enough for WHOOP to provide a solution for the severe language limitations,
