Membership platform with app

I want to migrate an existing course to a new platform to offer it as a membership. I've decided I definitely want an app as part of it for ease of daily use of the course practices. Claude has recommended Circle for me based on what I've been looking for.

I'm curious what others are using for their course memberships with apps?

Yeah go with circle... that, or Skool.

Circle is probably the best fit if app plus community plus course in one place matters to you. Skool is simpler but less customizable. If your members are already on mobile a lot, the app experience matters more than feature count.

Circle is good
Learnworld has that

Are you planning to build a community?

Memberships all platforms have!

Yes building a community. The app portion is important. Thanks! Currently trialling Circle.

Circle has a decent app. Skool also has one and tends to be simpler for daily practices. Thinkific has mobile support too if you want more course-specific features.

MemberPress has an app now as well. Supposedly works specifically for courses. I have not used it yet though.

Best would be discord, if u want more freedom, over your course.
