Where can I find a FAQ or Help Guide for the FLEX unit?
GymAware has published an extensive resource library here where you can learn more about use of the FLEX sensor and app!
Does the Flex VBT sensor and app allow for data download/upload into a excel or google sheet document?
Not at this time. However, the concept is being considered for the future.
Between FLEX and VITRUVE VBT ENCODER, which one do you suggest for Olympic weightlifting? And why?
We would 100% suggest the Flex VBT sensor by GymAware, because it is not tethered. It is much better to Oly lift without the string!
Will it expand to android users?
We have been told they are working on an Android app, but do not know when it will be ready for market.
Do you guys have any information on the reflective mat. I can see that it comes in the pack, but can't see any actual information on that particular product?
The mat can be rolled or folded and is made of neoprene, similar to the thickness of a light Yoga mat.
Hi there, What would the shipping timeline be to order one of these to an address in Ontario, Canada? Heather
If you select Worldwide Expedited Shipping by UPS, they guarantee delivery within 5 business days and they cover customs brokerage fees. UPS does not give a timeline for Canada Standard, but packages usually arrive within 2 weeks. However, Standard does not cover customs brokerage fees. VAT/import taxes are the responsibility of the customer and will be collected by UPS prior to delivery for all packages.
