Join-In Pro is an accessible platform that helps people with communication, cognitive, motor, and sensory access needs use everyday apps and websites more independently.
By combining simplified access, communication support, personalization, and progressive learning tools, Join-In Pro makes mainstream digital participation more accessible across communication, learning, work, entertainment, and everyday life.
Discover the accessibility, communication, personalization, and learning tools that make Join-In Pro flexible enough to support people with a wide range of needs.
Access communication, social media, entertainment, productivity, AI, education, and more through an expanding collection of supported apps and websites.
Join-In Pro is the next generation of Join-In, built on a completely redesigned platform with expanded app support, progressive learning tools, enhanced personalization, cloud synchronization, and many new accessibility and communication features.
If you’re currently using the original Join-In, we strongly recommend transitioning to Join-In Pro. It is the version we actively develop and improve, with ongoing feature updates, new accessibility capabilities, support for additional apps, and continuous performance enhancements.
The original Join-In remains supported for existing users. We continue to provide compatibility updates when websites change. However, it is no longer under active development, so updates are focused on maintaining compatibility rather than introducing new features or major improvements.
The good news is that you don’t have to switch all at once. Join-In Pro can be installed alongside the original Join-In, allowing you to continue using the apps and workflows you’re familiar with while gradually exploring Join-In Pro at your own pace. Users can choose to transition one app at a time until they’re ready to make Join-In Pro their primary environment.
This comparison highlights the major improvements introduced in Join-In Pro and helps existing Join-In users understand what’s new.
