Recording and Uploading Reps
Basics for recording videos on Cadoo
How Reps are Recorded
- Go to the specific game page where you are recording the reps to. The videos must be recorded on video from the Cadoo app. They cannot be uploaded from your own camera roll or recorded with a fitness watch.
- Reps are verified via AI technology produced by Guru. This technology ensures all reps are counted towards a game are technically correct and therefore does not allow for cheating. If you believe there has been an error and an incorrect number of reps recorded, you may submit the video for a manual and human inspection.
- When you join a game, there will be a "Record" button available to you to use to record the reps from. This requires usage of your internal phone camera and permissions for usage to record videos.
- From here, there will be a screen where you can set up your phone and record reps from. Before you begin your first and initial video, there will be a tutorial video on the process, so don't fret!
The Process of Recording Reps
- Choose a well-lit area with plenty of room to stretch out on the floor (for push-ups and sit-ups).
- Prop your phone up vertically against a wall or another support. Make sure it is stable. If it falls during recording, you can pick the phone up, re-position it, and keep going.
- Position your body to ensure your whole body is in the frame. Your head and feet should be of equal distance away from the camera. Do not film with your body at an angle towards or away from the camera.
- Adjust any camera settings for the best and clearest image, and tap to record.
- Once you're done, you may choose to either discard the video you just recorded if you wish to re-record it or submit the video.
- Once you submitted the video, Guru's AI technology will review your reps and will get back with your official rep count within a few minutes, depending on your network connection.
- Once your video has been submitted and uploaded, you will be able to view your videos and how many reps were counted for each submitted video. Be sure to check the number of valid reps counted and record additional videos if necessary, to meet the requirements for the game you are in.
- You can tap on an activity to view further details and submit a report if there is an error with the correct number of reps done in the video. These reports will be manually reviewed by our team, so we appreciate your patience as a real human reviews the reps. Any reps with correct form and videos filmed according to our requirements and guidelines will count.
