How to save the video – full tutorial [Be on the safe side]

1. Open the iPhone settings-> scroll down to WODProof -> check the app permissions, and check if WODProof access to your “photos” is allowed.

2. Please make sure that WODProof is the only app that is open now, and there are no other apps in the background.

Then, hit the try again button in the app:

if it works – great, if no, please move to step 3.

3. Please swipe up to close WODProof [Yes, to close the APP], and open WODProof again.

When you’ll open WODProof again, you’ll see our safety process working, by recommending you to save your unsaved video.

Then hit the save video button and it will work.

Some additional info about why it might happen and the solution:

* Recording a long video in HD resolution can be a hard process for some devices, as it requires a lot of internal phone memory (it’s not the storage of the iphone) to run all the process at the same time. In some cases, the mobile can simply stop recording, or have a failure saving the video file when a lot of other processes are running at the same time.

To avoid such situations, we show a pop up message that recommends closing all unnecessary applications before you hit the start recording button.

In addition, we’ve added the safety mode offering you to try to save the unsaved video, instead of letting the iPhone to “give up on this hard process”.

1. Please close all apps running in the background. A long HD recording can consume a lot of effort from your device. We’d like to ensure that your device can focus on a smooth recording, and not on handling more applications.
2. Please check that you have at least 2.5GB of storage space on your phone before recording. If not, it may be a great time to clean up some old videos in your photo library!
3. For additional caution, go to your iPhone settings >> General >> Background App Refresh >> and turn off ‘Background App Refresh’ for the duration of your session.
4. Last but not least, don’t let anybody ruin your recording. You can turn on Airplane mode to ensure you don’t get any calls from people asking how your Open workout was.

Please click on the start workout button and get into the start recording screen.

1-Press start recording (blue button).

Now you can do the introduction part and show your equipment, standards etc…

2- Whenever you ready, the second click will be on “Start timer” button. This will activate the countdown and the timer right after.

3- After you complete the workout and got the best score ever, you can click stop timer. Now you can still show the final weight or anything else to the camera (you are still recording). NOTE: If you had a countdown workout (AMRAP) or a workout with a time cap, you will immediately move to step 4 as the timer already stopped.

4- Press stop recording, and you will see the video saved on your mobile. (iOS = camera roll, and Android = WODProof Folder in your gallery).

When you finish the workout you have automatically a new post with everything but not yet with the video.

The video saved to your mobile (IOS will save to the camera roll, Android to a WODProof folder in your mobile’s gallery).

You can upload the video to youtube and then edit your post, (that can’t play the video) and add the youtube URL (link) and press save.

After that, it will appear with the video in your profile and you can also press on the 3 dots and then “set as public” post.

Why do we do that?

Since we want to allow our users to submit and save videos for free, without paying for cloud storage.

You can also see a video of how to submit videos/scores to an existing post as we described:

WODProof is the most trusted time-stamped recording tool for your Open workouts, but we are not the score submission platform. Submit your official scores on games.crossfit.com/open

If you want to share your videos to your WODProof profile so the WODProof community will see it:

Please open the WODProof Menu -> Training Programs / Communities -> WODProof Community

This is how you can share your score and video (the original video is save to your mobile’s gallery):

Share scores to a community leaderboard – video.

You can find your video in your camera roll (IOS) or in your gallery in WODProof album (Android).

WODProof vision was to enable our users to share and inspire the community with their full-length videos. It could cost our users a lot of money to have an unlimited storage package in WODProof, so we found the best free solution for you. Upload your performance to YouTube and just add your video URL to your post.

YouTube allows video uploads that are up to 15 minutes long. If you try to upload videos longer than 15 minutes, the upload will fail. This is a YouTube limitation and not WODProof limitation.

In order to upload longer videos, please follow this manual.
