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. β’ Guided setup gets you lifting fastβpick an exercise, load, and targets, then let BarSpeed calibrate LiDAR + ARKit to your rack. β’ Live overlays surface concentric speed, ROM, time under tension, and adaptive framing cues so you never lose the bar. β’ 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. β’ Highlight metrics now expand to show week/month/year deltas, updated coaching copy, and βActionβ guidance grounded in your current phase. β’ Set Breakdown charts add a filter to isolate concentric, eccentric, or ROM trends per set, plus refined visuals for easier comparisons. β’ 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. β’ Secure data sync, RevenueCat-powered subscriptions, and Firebase Auth (Apple, Google, email) ensure your history follows you everywhere. Whether youβre 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 update cadence: BarSpeed at every 3 days against STRYV Coach's weekly. STRYV Coach's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.6). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
