## What is Corner For Gyms?

Get fired up with realtime comparisons in your boxing class with Corner trackers. See work rate, punch count, speed and more. Review round by round leaderboards during class and automatically send results right back to each clients phones to review. 

REAL TIME COMPARISONS 

Gamify your gym experience with realtime comparisons. of punch count, speed, power, work rate and KO Points (an over all performance score). 

HOW IT WORKS

Each participant wearing a pair of Corner trackers has a tile showing their performance compared to everyone else. The tile can be customised to show your chosen stats when the class is set up. You can also put people into teams to make the experience more fun in group environments. 

LEADERBOARDS

We rank every round rather than just an overall so that every round is a fight to be the best. You can also see your overall score as you keep going. 

LONG TERM RESULTS

Corners gym class experience focuses on building a community feel and everyone gets their results back to their phone so they can see their progress from every training session.


## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 15.1 — 2026-07-23

1. Open Gym mode
New dedicated mode with self-service check-in, workout, and checkout; each member's session uploads immediately on checkout to their profile (punches, calories, scores).

2. Movement Points (MP) and Exercise mode
MP are earned in Exercise mode, not boxing.
- MP accrue per hand and read on each tile; a hidden or inactive tile fades back in the moment that member earns MP.
- Calories stay visible top-right during Exercise mode.
- New 5th "Movement" metric on the End of Class screen (the live selector still shows four), with row values, podium, and team totals.
- A tracker counter reset during an Exercise round no longer zeroes MP or the KO-to-MP bonus; the value is banked.
- Fixed value font sizing when switched to Movement Points, including Sparring.

3. Challenges: split teams and team games
- Starting a challenge while teams are split now shows a popup: Both Teams Together, One Team at a Time (runs twice, teams swap), or This Team Only. The back-to-back run is offered for individual challenges only.
- UP NEXT names the participating team(s); the pre-challenge cast shows a team-coloured note when only one team runs.
- The exercising (non-challenge) team no longer uploads zero-score attempts (Bleep Test and team games exempt).
- Tug of War, Cat & Mouse, and Relay Race record each player's team and the winner correctly in non-team classes, and are fully available there.

4. Casting and external screens
- Studio Only "Class Starting Soon" countdown casts within 2 minutes of start; digits no longer jitter; at 0:00 it hides and the title pulses. Now includes a streak column.
- Reception (Desk): the check-in list holds after close through a short grace period, then rebuilds into the leaderboard; an auto-assigned member no longer stays on "ASSIGNING".
- Casted homescreen monthly challenge positions are numbered in order.
- Rest leaderboard shows a 'Change Tracker' recommendation if disconnections detected.
- Switching to/from Teams mode updates the cast; class and tracker popups are restyled and centred.
- The classic remote no longer sticks after a cast drops; you can always return to the modern view.
- iOS 26: cast tile KO/MP fonts are correctly sized (previously tiny 12pt).

5. Pre-class Warm Up (new)
- After the countdown hits 0:00 (scheduled classes), a Warm Up button appears beside End Check In.
- It flips the cast to a WARM UP count-up, drops to warm-up volume, and sets Hue lighting to orange. Reset re-anchors the timer; X cancels back to the countdown; it ends automatically at the live class.
- On a Hub with no external screen, the volume and lights still work.

6. Philips Hue lighting
- Countdown fades white to red anchored to real start time; at 0:00 a gentle red pulse; End Check-In or backing out resets to white.
- Fixed lights not switching to blue during Exercise mode after consecutive exercise rounds.
- Standalone Manage Lights button now opens the full Light Management panel.

7. Bleep Test
- Now runs as a normal challenge, unlocked for all gyms and fully integrated into CornerIQ. The old mode toggle was removed from Transfer Users.

8. Check-in tile
- Streak-Freeze streaks calculate properly on the casted tile.
- A disconnected member's swap button glows red during pre-challenge rest, scoped to that member.
- A warning now lists any assigned tracker found on charge during check-in.
- Fixed phantom tile scores before Round 1; Studio Only mode can now change trackers during check-in.

9. End of class
- New end-of-session rating box for trainers with optional comments.
- Session uploads no longer wedge until a force-quit; the 'Upload Classes' properly button clears stuck uploads and reports pending count.

10. Performance and stability
- End Check In presents the live class more quickly when wifi quality is poor.
- Reduced network use during live classes; lower per-second CPU on the cast control screen.
- Improved Bluetooth polling efficiency and end-of-class turn-off.

### 15.0 — 2026-05-26

New:

- New Game: Relay-Race - two teams race side by side, each boxer hitting a KO points target before handing over to the next teammate, with an optional time limit.
- The Bleep Test is now a fully integrated Corner challenge and can be run as a challenge within normal classes.
- Tug of War can now be played in non-teams classes, with players auto-balanced into two teams based on session performance.
- Added Auto Balance for team classes at check-in.
- Added Crash Protection: if the app crashes or is closed mid-session, fully restores the class on reload.
- Added Class Templates: build a structured class once and reuse it, including one-tap class creation from a template during the Final Leaderboard.
- Added a standalone timer for the casted screen with iPad controls, remote control and automatic music volume.
- Added a Tracker Status panel to check which trackers need charging before a class.
- Trainers can now 'freeze' a user for 5 or 10 seconds (for example when ignoring Round instructions to chase a score).
- Users can now be found at any gym they registered at, and this sets the current gym as their primary gym for bookings and leaderboards.
- Members can now sign-up with Google. 
- New 'Tracker Refresh' button releases stuck trackers, so a tracker that connects (blue lights) but isn't listed appears without restarting the app.
- Added a manual attendance review screen and Class Options toggle, with attendance marking at end of class.
- Updated the Auto-Assign screen with simplified options and a refreshed style.
- Automatic music volume presets updated, now persist in the cloud, and can be linked to gym class templates.

Improvements:

- Custom Switch interval settings reworked for both timers.
- Updated the Transfer Users and Create Class views during the Final Leaderboard.
- Quit & Upload button no longer auto-hides during the final leaderboard when not casting.
- Bluetooth handling now targets iOS26+ with parameters to speed up connections.
- Updated the Trainer Remote layout for vertical iPad and iPhone emergency or test use (we recommend always using a horizontal iPad where possible).
- iPad Mode button moved to the left of the header so it works with a Spotify slide over present, alongside the new timer button.
- Added a basic final overview screen for Sparring Mode.

- Updated tile displays for iOS26.2+ and refreshed the casted leaderboard.
- 100+ visual tweaks for iOS26 and in general.

Fixes:

- Fixed memory leaks across live class screens that could slow the app down over back-to-back classes.
- Fixed music 'ducking' between 'End Check In' and starting Round 1.
- Fixed users who gained movement points during Rest starting a Round with a green tile, which affected the first bar of the Round effort graphs in the Dashboard.
- Fixed Challenge round numbering not matching the session round number, and late-checked current-round challenge data giving a new user a false 'PB'.
- Fixed Interval timing issues when used with the reset button.
- Fixed tug of war video looping. Updated the new class default name behaviour (auto delete, spaces showing) and added a basic common class name autocomplete dropdown.
- Fixed a studio iPad bug where a tracker stuck in a previous class could appear to assign but not connect, sometimes also blocking the user being added. Stuck trackers from another class now show as such and allow a manual override.
- Improvement for bell latency over AirPlay.
