The latest update to SpeedCoach Mobile provides full access to all application settings directly within the app, in a new “Settings” tab. All settings can be changed at any time and will take effect immediately. A new setting in the “advanced” section lets you adjust the threshold for detecting a stroke. This is most useful for some paddling sports where the default settings may require too much power for average users to register a stroke.

This update also includes a couple of bug fixes, including a fix for one rather old bug that could (on some devices) cause the application to auto-pause unexpectedly during a workout. Both the free and paid versions of the application are updated and available as a free upgrade for all current customers.

SpeedCoach Mobile version 2.2.2 is now available as a free update for all customers. This version adds support for “meters per stroke” on the Row/Paddle screen. The display shows an average over your last 10 strokes (or a countdown until you’ve taken 10 strokes). The distance value is rounded to the nearest 5 cm, and is updated on each stroke.

The latest update to SpeedCoach Mobile adds support for “meters per stroke”, which many coaches consider an important measure of efficiency. This is computed as a running average over the last 10 strokes and is rounded to the nearest 5 cm. As always, this is provided as a free update for all current customers.

This article touches on some of the reasons why we haven’t developed a version of SpeedCoach Mobile for Android.

SpeedCoach Mobile version 2.2.1 is now available as a free update through the iTunes App Store. This is a minor update that fixes a few bugs in exporting, and adds a couple of new data fields (average speed & pace) to the detailed CSV format.

Another great video from SpeedCoach Mobile customer, Thomas Carter, at the Head of the River. This one includes check and bounce data along with speed, time, distance, and stroke rate. The latest version of SpeedCoach Mobile includes a “video sync” mode that makes it easy to synchronize recorded video with your practice data.
