Only Capture and Post Content Within Your Space(s)
You can think of Spaces almost like a digital folder.
Though of course, they’re much more than just a folder – they have video/ image analysis and purpose-built communication functionality built right in.
Before CoachNow, in order to do analysis, you would have to upload an image or video into your preferred analysis platform, do the analysis, and then export the video.
Spaces streamline this process down to just one step and eliminate the need for additional work.
While you’re training, just open your CoachNow Space, shoot the video, do analysis then and there, hit “post”, and BOOM. That video is now easily accessible for you.
Not only does this save you time, it also automatically keeps you organized, providing unparalleled context for your training going forward.
When you’re training everyday, it’s easy to get caught up in the thick of your practice. By keeping all of your progress handy in one place, it’ll be easier to compare your training over time and see how you’ve improved.
Additionally, if you do end up getting a coach, they’ll easily be able to see all of the progress that you’ve made so far and have greater context on how to maximize their coaching for your benefit.

Use Tags when Posting Content

Whenever you’re creating a post, simply tap the ‘Add Tags’ button, to create your custom tag, and tap “done”.

Try Posting From Email
Did you know that you can post in a CoachNow Space without even opening the app?
Whenever you create a Space, it automatically creates an email address associated with that Space. You can send emails to that address and its content will automatically post in your Space.
To find the address, just open up your “Space Settings”.
Then scroll down to the section that says “Post From Email”
