We've just added a round timer suitable for coaches, or just for you rollers who want to throw a timer up on the phone screen and hit the mat. It can be used as a plain timer with no frills, or you can completely customise the rounds and hook it up so it runs once or loops around for all eternity. Next up we'll wire it up so it can be controlled from Apple Watch and make it more iPad friendly.

Your training log now tells the story of your roll. Every session you log is broken down into the positions you played, the submissions you hit (and got caught in), the techniques you drilled, and the underlying principles behind them — so you can look back and actually see your game taking shape. Connect the dots between positions and submissions. Link a submission to the position it came from — just drag it into place, or pick where it started. Your finishes are now ranked by what's actually working best for you, so your go-to moves rise to the top. More of the mat to explore. We've added 9 new positions and 4 new submissions to the knowledge library, including 93 Guard, Tripod Guard, Mounted Triangle, Turtle Crucifix, Kneebar Control, the Electric Chair, Reverse Omoplata, Bulldog Choke, and more.
