2023-07-14
Another minor update to address a number of corner case issues that have been identified.
These Include:
- In MANUAL REC mode the setting of the REST position for jumps is now the first point collected.
- In AUTO-REC mode the REST position is automatically set to the start of the first eccentric phase.
- User set still manual rest height position in AUTO-REC, just tap the REC button.
- Height/ dip values will report correctly for jumps Based of the REST position.
- Real-time display of concentric values on the main dial now prevents the display of small values on the last rep.
- Improvements to the display of eccentric values as currently too many non valid phases are displayed.
- Improved device timeout logic to prevent unwanted shutdown of FLEX devices.

We are thrilled to announce that the latest release of the GymAware App now includes Eccentric Metrics.
With this update, you will have access to real-time metrics such as Eccentric Peak Velocity, Eccentric Mean Velocity, and Eccentric Time. These new metrics will allow for a variety of training possibilities and an enhanced App experience.
- Moreover, this update also improves the performance of GymAware x FLEX integration. You will experience fewer spike or ghost reps when using the FLEX unit with the GymAware iPad app.
- The response time of the display of real-time metrics of the main graphical dial has been increased. There is now less chance the rep counting will fall behind.
- We adjusted the default colour scheme for targets.. The target metric now defaults to Green.
Red was the old color, however this is now reserved for values that fall below the set target.
If below target, values will be Red
Above target = Grey
In target zone = Target type color, Blue, Green, Orange or Yellow
- Since the launch of the GymAware RS last year, we've been on an unstoppable App and product development streak.However, we want to assure you that this update is compatible with your older GymAware units i.e. iconic GymAware PowerTools as well.
- As always, this App release includes numerous bug fixes to smoothen your experience with the VBT gold standard. Upgrade to the latest version of the GymAware App and take advantage of best in class features.

3.2.1
2022-06-21
Our team is excited to share the new GymAware app update with the community! Check out the details below:
Enhanced the search abilities across various screens of the app. Specifically, our user favorite SHORTLISTING athletes feature.
Additionally, the search option has also been added so it’s easier to find athletes in order to DELETE or remove them.
It’s now even easier to download Squad logos and Athlete profile pictures. You can also notice the icon more prominently when switching the BAR weight to follow an individual ATHLETE or stay with the EXERCISE. The icon will be updated every time so you know what the app is tracking.
We’ve added the ‘Height’ and ‘Dip’ columns into the export CSV. (who doesn’t love more data?)
Fixed other minor bugs to uplift your GymAware experience.
Enjoy the update and please feel free to pass on any feedback at

3.1
2022-01-14
This update adds compatibility for the new GymAware PowerTool RS.
With the new unit comes a new standard of excellence in Velocity Based Training (VBT).
NOTE: Owners of the GymAware RS need to ensure they have this version (3.1) App.
We also tweaked how LAST target value is reported.
Previously it was the BEST rep of the LAST set. To simplify it we have made it the LAST rep of the LAST set.
This should provide added value to coaches who want to see "how far into the hole" the lifter went in the last set.
Lastly there were some cases where the targets on the graphs were displaying incorrectly. These have also been fixed.
So, if your serious about VBT then check out the new unit on gymaware.com

On a tight budget?
This one goes out to all those coaches stuck with substandard Velocity-Based training(VBT) technology.
This release makes the FLEX barbell sensor compatible with the GymAware App.
The FLEX GymAware combo is the ideal VBT solution if expense restrictions are in play.
We have also created a new range of subscription options for coaches to choose a package that suits them best. In particular, this release makes a low priced ‘app-only’ subscription available, which unlocks the extensive feature set in the app without subscribing to a GymAware Cloud account.
From this point GymAware becomes the only genuine integrated VBT ecosystem offering hardware and software choices so that coaches can curate packages to meet any requirements and budget.
See our website for more information.
This release is only supported on iOS versions 11 and up. iOS versions 10 and below will no longer be supported. You may need to update your iOS device to install this update.

A note for Lite mode users; from this release onwards Lite mode will no longer be available.
