## What is FitnessMeter?

Highly versatile fitness testing and performance evaluation - getting fit has never been easier!

FitnessMeter is an advanced timing and measurement tool, useful for various forms of fitness testing. Aimed at both coaches evaluating multiple athletes and individuals monitoring their performance, the app can be applied to a variety of different tests to measure speed, agility, jumping altitude and overall physical condition.

FitnessMeter includes the following tools: 

Flying Sprint 
Using the camera view, FitnessMeter measures the top speed or acceleration of a sprinter over a predetermined distance of 10-20 m. Two red lines, functioning as timing gates, aid in identifying the points between which running time is measured.

Sprint and Shuttle 
This mode can be applied to both sprints and agility tests. The app functions as a starting gun and a timing gate, and can be configured to handle several different types of tests, from conventional sprint to more complex drills, such as the 505 Agility test. 

Vertical Jump 
FitnessMeter records a short video that allows you to easily measure the height of a jump. If you are evaluating your​ performance, put the iPhone in your pocket and use the accelerometer tool instead. 

Repetitions 
FitnessMeter can count and time various repetitive activities such as sit-ups, push-ups, step-ups, etc. The iPhone can be placed beside you, using the camera to track repetitions using motion detection, or attached to yourself to allow monitoring through the accelerometer.

Beep Test 
A configurable Beep Test that saves an image after each lap, which makes it easy to keep track of results, even for a large group of runners.

### 5/5 — Synchronisation Instable

*2021-11-13*

Cette application est juste parfaite pour réaliser des prises de performances sur les athlètes. 
Cependant, je rencontre un problème de synchronisation lorsque la distance dépasse 7 mètres avec 2 appareils. 
Y a t’il une solution afin de pouvoir réaliser des mesures sur 20m ?

### 4/5 — Good app

*2021-02-05*

Update: so the developer reached out to me, which I thought was great, and verified he was able to see the issue I was having. He also explained why the fix may not be soon if ever and suggested for my specific purpose I might try his sprint timer app (I am going to try). He also offered a refund if I didn’t feel the current functionality was satisfactory. 

I’m only attempting to use Flying Sprint so I cannot comment on the other four functions of the app. 

Since my initial review I’ve had time to play with the app even more, It seems to work great when using two devices to record a start and stop time, but you will need to manually record the times (it locks up if you try to save them to a specific person in app). 

Also there’s no real advantage to saving in the app because there’s no ability to view, track, or manipulate data results on the device, instead requiring an email of the data to yourself for viewing. 

There are a lot of great ideas here, I’m pretty happy with the app.

### 4/5 — Top App

*2020-08-04*

I use it for the straight line sprints and 595 agility test and I find it works well.

### 5/5 — Wonderful sprint timing app improved

*2020-02-07*

The flying sprint timer is amazing allows very accurate timing for runs with two iOS devices 
Excellent feature 
Not working well for photos, no snapshots
Crashes sometimes on snapshot or autosave
Poor data management, no graphs no user savings.
 At least export available for some areas

### 5/5 — An Awesome App

*2016-10-02*

At Tyndale Christian School, Fitness Meter App is used extensively in the cutting edge Senior School Human Performance Sport Science course. It is one of the must have Apps in the Sport Science toolbox. It is used both in research investigations and athlete feedback. Easy enough for novices and yet detailed enough for testing.

### 3/5 — Fitness

*2014-01-26*

I have used this App for fitness test and it was great to use and give the test a little professional touch, some small hiccups but still good to use.

### 4/5 — Another awesome app

*2013-12-29*

Having all the functions in one app is great!
I've used speedclock before in my science class and now I can use fitness meter on the pitch.  Takes some practice and you need a tripod or something stable for sure, otherwise it's quick, easy, and fun

### 4/5 — Awesome app

*2013-11-13*

It's a great fun app that is very useful. Everything works great accept the accel-meter in counting the reps. The camera works well but when I have it in my arm bad I can't count it to do reps. It wouldn't even give me a rep when I shook it. I hope that gets fixed soon. Other than that its a great app.

### 5/5 — Very useful app

*2013-09-05*

I'm staring to use this app for indoor sprint timing. It has worked flawlessly and the developer has replied very quickly when asked for any support. He has some other very cool apps as well!

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2012-07-27*

Perfect and high tech.
