Excellent video!

Hey!! thank you for your contribution to the community, may I ask does the VBT metric app support the snatch, the clean, and the jerk? as far as i see in the app, there're no such options...

[@vbtcoach]

Correct, these need some more work for us to do well (we could currently track them, but the catch phase and second pull etc would lead to weird results, so we have decided to not cover these until they have a custom algorithm.

@@vbtcoach another necessary improvement is it has to withstand some tiny shaking, I can't even use it now if someone is deadlifting next to me... Please fix it, much appreciated

[@vbtcoach]

@@Ckjohn77kg Hey Wong, absolutely, it does handle some shaking, but a violent vibration/wobble will make the data invalid (phone movement would be calculated as barbell movement), it should be able to handle some small vibrations, maybe try a tripod to hold it securely?
we will continue working on this though for sure, hopefully down the track this can be improved!

Is it available for Android?
