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.

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.

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.
