Video function not great
01/04/2024

Love how easy it is to use but have been using the video feature to send videos to my coach but doesn’t save videos consistently. I haven’t had a time where it’s save each video in my training sessions, I’m lucky if it saves back to back sets.If I try to edit the length of a video in the app, it will immediately delete the video.

Missing some key features

Support for custom exercises would be a good feature to implement. For example, when I log data for incline bench and flat bench it both goes into the same exercise. Additionally, what happened to being able to enter a hard velocity stop by a value in m/s? I can no longer get feedback when my speed drops below the threshold. I used to use that feedback to terminate the set.Update: Vitruve responded to my review to let me know that velocity stop can be entered in velocity zones. The functionality is more or less the same with a small enhancement. However they let me know that the custom exercises is a premium feature and you have to have a Vitruve Teams account, which requires a subscription. Personally, I think this is kind of ridiculous, since I paid $400 for the device already. Now I need I subscription? I have no need for the Teams features anyways.

Hello. First of all, thank you for using the app.At the current moment, custom exercises are available only in Vitruve Teams app. If you are a coach you can create an account and have free access for 30 days.To setup the velocity stop value, now you have to do in "Velocity Zones" settings. There you can set up to 2 zones to work. To set the velocity stop, you just need to set 1 zone, disabling the highest velocity zone. It's quite better and visual than before!

The hardware is top-notch, well-made, and functions exactly as described. I was initially concerned that the encoder would feel like a cheap, rushed-to-market throwaway Kickstarter ripoff; these fears were entirely unwarranted. This thing is solid.The mobile app's UX is flawless - intuitive, discoverable, follows the principle-of-least-surprise. I love that I can dump my workouts to CSV with little effort and truly own my data.If you're curious about VBT but feeling a little uncertain as to whether or not the Vitruve delivers on its promises - pull the trigger. You won't regret it. Hats off to the engineering and product teams behind this thing... y'all should be proud of yourselves.

I am using it well. It would be great if a function to give rep count feedback by voice was added.

Developer Response
Thank you for your feedback! The best way to use VBT is with fatigue instead of doing some pre defined number of repetitions. We think the number of repetitions is not relevant, but we will consider your opinion. Best!
