What’s new

Improved tracking accuracy
Barbell tracking is now more accurate for both real-time recordings and imported videos. Edge case, different angles handled better, and peak velocity now more precise, particularly on devices recording at 30fps

Imported videos process up to 17% faster, and post-set processing time is reduced

Coaches can now activate a free coach account directly in the app

Accelerometer calibration fixed
Fixed an issue with HDR video exports
