### 3/5 — It's nice when it actually works

*2026-07-04*

Sometimes it'll record. Sometimes it refuses to. Completely closing the app and restarting works most of the time.

### 3/5 — Quand ça marche, ça marche mais..

*2026-06-25, version 6.9*

Tellement souvent des mini bugs.. bugs du jour.. refus de démarrer caméra (trop de mouvements) j’utilise un trépied..

### 2/5 — Pay walls and inaccurate velocity readings.

*2026-05-18, version 6.7.7*

Can’t track ur trends workout to workout without paying. Very finicky doesn’t recognize plates unless ur angle is perfect and the velocity readings change depending on the angle. Not accurate. Was promising too.

### 2/5 — Has potential

*2026-05-06, version 6.7.5*

This is a nice idea but the level of reiability is way too low for the high subscription cost. Inadequate diagnostics for the frequent tracking fails.

### 2/5 — 购买之后依然不是pro？ bug？

*2026-04-11*

而且报错按钮一直转圈，试了很多次无效

**Developer response:** Hi, feel free to get in touch with us to diagnose and troubleshoot this bug further. You can reach us at community@metric.coach. Jacob

### 3/5 — Love this but the bugs are setting it back

*2025-11-14*

Been using the app for almost two weeks now, and everything was running smoothly until today. I updated the app and now any of my 60fps videos analyze and get stuck on 100% forever. Tried deleting the app and redownloading and it still did nothing for me

**Developer response:** Hey thanks for the review, and yep we found this bug and fixed it in v6.3.4 should be all good to go on the imported videos again, we even made imports faster when we fixed this bug as a nice bonus, thanks for the feedback and bug report! - Jacob

### 4/5 — Hola

*2025-10-18, version 6.2*

Hola muy buena la aplicación, pero podría agregar para analizar videos de ejercicios con mancuernas como el press banca inclinado con mancuernas

### 3/5 — F’n up after update

*2025-10-08, version 6.1.3*

It gives multiple sound feedbacks for one rep and screws up the speed, it fixes it after analyzing the video. You also can’t keep the app on background while analyzing the video because it loses it

### 2/5 — Recent UI changes made this a buggy mess

*2025-10-03*

A recent UI change in September has made actually recording weights and reps a nightmare. Changing the weight on a set of a saved workout template changes the other reps, which would be fine. Except then after logging the set it looks like it’s reverted back to the original weight. Also it constantly wants to scroll to whatever the top unfinished set is, rather than keeping my place. The older UI was almost identical, and had no problems.

**Developer response:** Yup, and this is our bad - these bugs made workout logging a nightmare. The weight reverting and auto-scroll isseus came from our new workout architecture, that exposed too many issues in real world training. Version 6.2 (out now) fixes these problems: weight edits save properly and the app stays where you're working. Sorry these bugs disrupted your training. - Jacob, Metric Co-founder

### 2/5 — Much worse after update

*2025-09-15*

Video screen lost ability to change plate size, speed,ability to return to previous screen. 
Velocity tracking more erratic with velocities often 100x greater. Main screen buggy and doesn’t respond consistently when icons pressed. Disappointing

**Developer response:** "Much worse" is putting it kindly - 6.0 broke a lot of key features... not our finest moment and we apologize! Version 6.2 (available now) fixes these issues and more. The camera controls work, velocity edge cases are handled better, and buttons actually respond when tapped. Sorry for shipping so many bugs, the latest update should have things much more stable - Jacob, Metric Co-founder

### 3/5 — 更新后就再也上不去了

*2025-04-16*

更新后原视频数据丢失且退出后登录不了

### 5/5 — Brilliant App

*2025-03-18, version 5.2*

Very useful and user friendly!

### 1/5 — Pro não tá funcionando

*2026-07-08*

Eu comprei o produto pro, mas não está funcionando, aparece como se eu não tivesse comprado, mas já debitou do meu cartão e o aplicativo continua pedindo pra mim obter o pro

### 1/5 — way too many bugs

*2026-01-25*

bug一大堆。不填杠铃重量load velocity profile就会卡死，咋的你们程序员不会做0值特殊处理是吗？录好的训练视频经常莫名其妙丢失。经常性录完视频卡死闪退。我用gpt-3.5写出来的code都比你这强

**Developer response:** Hey, thanks for the feedback. Version 6.4 had some known issues that have since been resolved in the most recent updates since then with crash fixes, performance improvements, and better handling of edge cases like empty load-velocity profiles.

If you update to the latest version, you should see a much more stable experience. If you're still running into issues after updating, submit a bug report from the set review screen and we'll look into it. Thanks for the feedback!

### 1/5 — 免费版本现在连视频都导不出来了

*2025-12-31*

个人需求比较简单，就是看看力线轨迹，以前免费版本还可以导出，现在不能导出视频了。就算想出钱支持下，还是年费制，一年300多，不合理

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! Video export is available on the free plan — if it's not working for you, please get in touch and we'll help sort it out (has always been available for basic members).

On the Pro subscriptions, we get it's not for everyone. We're a small indie team that runs no ads and doesn't sell user data. We rely on subscriptions are how we keep our business running so we can invest in making our app better.

### 1/5 — Tolle Aufmachung, aber leider nicht nutzbar

*2025-12-27, version 6.4.1*

Benötigt bei 4K Aufnahmen recht lange für die Analyse nur um dann letztlich doch abzustürzen

### 1/5 — 打不开

*2025-11-25*

打不开
无法注册账号

**Developer response:** Hello, feel free to email us community@metric.coach, we will be happy to help out with this if you need some assistance getting into the app (this issue has not been reported for the app in v6.0+ so this is something we can look into if you can provide some more details!

### 1/5 — Non analizza video importati

*2025-11-21, version 6.3.2*

L’app si blocca su una schermata nera se importo un video da galleria

### 1/5 — 极其不稳定

*2025-09-20, version 6.0.2*

总是出错大失所望

### 1/5 — Worked only on one video

*2025-06-18*

Worked once. All other profile videos either said light was too bright, too close (when video was  3+ feet away). Not worth the hassle -sorry

**Developer response:** Ah thats a shame you had the errors!
For Metric for track the barbell accurately in video it needs to be able to see the full barbell range of motion for the entire set. That means good lighting, framed at a god distance so as to capture the top and bottom of the reps and with a stable device for precision. Feel free to submit your missed videos as bug reports (you can do this directly in the app) and we can take a look at what went wrong. We are always happy to assist, or if your videos help us find bugs and improve the tracking that is also super useful! - Jacob

### 1/5 — 购买了会员但是无法正常使用

*2024-12-16*

重新下载了，还无法登陆。有太多的bug和不匹配的价格

**Developer response:** 我很遗憾听到这个消息！登录问题可能是由于区域限制访问处理登录和用户数据存储的 Metric 云服务。如需更多支持和帮助，请随时直接给我发电子邮件，如果您发现错误，请随时联系 jacob@metric.coach

### 1/5 — 不能正常使用

*2024-11-22*

充了钱为啥还是不能使用pro功能

### 5/5 — J.Seelig

*2026-01-12, version 6.4.3*

Exactly the same functions as an expensive velocity tracker! Very professional

### 5/5 — PERFECT

*2025-11-07*

This is what i needed exactly!! It just has everything for me to measure my squats progress and this app made it so easier dude thank you so much for the developers

**Developer response:** Hey, you are welcome, glad the app has been useful in your training!

### 5/5 — v6.2 is awesome!

*2025-10-16*

v6.2 is awesome!  Recording velocity and tracking lifts never missed a beat.  Most of all, the app is excellent for non-velocity tracking exercises too.

**Developer response:** Thank you! Glad you are liking the app, (Also glad we were able to clean up those bugs that crept in with the 6.0 release, thanks to all our lifters who helped with the user feedback in iOS 26!)

### 5/5 — Wydajność

*2025-09-14, version 6.0*

Po aktualizacji siadła wydajność na ekranie z treningiem.

### 5/5 — Great tool for coaches

*2025-05-14, version 5.3.3*

A great app for us in our strength training, our coaching team is using it basically every workout since we got a coach account, even allows us to keep an eye on remote workouts too

### 5/5 — Gavin Heward

*2025-04-28, version 5.3.3*

Coaching both powerlifters and sport athletes in an S&C environment, it’s been very hard to find any tech/apps that are both reliable at very low and very high bar speeds, as well as finding anything that is able to give the variety of info I need ranging from average to peak velocity, along with useful aspects such as velocity loss alerts and ROM, etc. So, I am very impressed with the thought and application that has gone into Metric - it seems to be the first and only thing truly designed BY coaches who understand the needs and nuances of coaches working in a variety of environments. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Take the time to learn this

*2025-04-22*

Metric is a total game-changer. 📈 It turns your phone into a powerful barbell tracker—no sensors, no hassle. You get instant feedback on bar speed, range of motion, and reps, helping you lift smarter, not just harder.

✅ Accurate velocity tracking
✅ Auto-logs your sets
✅ Makes Velocity-Based Training (VBT) super simple
✅ Crystal-clear progress tracking

Small catch: you need good lighting, and the best features are in the paid plan — but it's absolutely worth it if you’re serious about strength gains.

Bottom line: If you want to train like an athlete and see real results, Metric is a must-have. 🔥

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for the amazing review, we really appreciate it, and could not agree more with your review!!!

### 5/5 — 卡住了

*2025-04-02*

卡在登陆界面进不去了 怎么办啊

**Developer response:** This might be a network connectivity issue the login process requires internet connection to our servers to create your user account.

### 5/5 — Helpful and precise

*2025-03-30, version 5.2.1*

Good app for adding precision into your training for chasing strength and power adaptations

### 5/5 — Staged implementation

*2025-03-27*

I have been lifting for almost 2 years. Found this app a week ago. Easy to use but I have to be careful positioning my phone so it detects all my reps. I started with just looking at my speed. When this block is over I’m going to start using it for autoregulation.

**Developer response:** Nice one, we love hearing feedback from lifters so feel free to get in touch, I'd love to hear how your autoregulation block went with the app! - Jacob
