BarSpeed turns a LiDAR-equipped iPhone Pro 12+ into a full velocity-based training lab. Track every rep with depth-aware AR, get live velocity cues, and wrap each session with phase-aware insights, highlight-ready recaps, and analytics trusted by coaches. • Guided setup gets you lifting fast—pick an exercise, load, and targets, then let BarSpeed calibrate LiDAR + ARKit to your rack. • Live overlays surface concentric speed, ROM, time under tension, and adaptive framing cues so you never lose the bar. • New phase selector tailors the Lifting Profile analysis to Strength, Power, Maintain, or Recovery goals, while Trend Analysis cards explain what changed (mass, 1RM, power) and what to do next. • Highlight metrics now expand to show week/month/year deltas, updated coaching copy, and “Action” guidance grounded in your current phase. • Set Breakdown charts add a filter to isolate concentric, eccentric, or ROM trends per set, plus refined visuals for easier comparisons. • Leaderboards, notes, and intensity tags keep context across blocks, and you can still export highlight clips or snapshot cards to share progress with athletes and coaches. • Secure data sync, RevenueCat-powered subscriptions, and Firebase Auth (Apple, Google, email) ensure your history follows you everywhere. Whether you’re chasing a PR, monitoring velocity loss, or coaching remotely, BarSpeed delivers lab-grade precision with the convenience of your phone.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: OVR Connect at none against BarSpeed's 2. OVR Connect also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.6). BarSpeed's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 8 days). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
