Our team of VR and football experts are constantly finding ways to improve our world leading cognitive training app for players, coaches and parents.

Be Your Best is used by thousands of professional and amateur players and its features, interface and capabilities are constantly in development to stay at the top of its game!

This past month, we launched our inaugural Monthly Challenges. In addition to this, subscribers can now also benefit from a number of exciting updates to our VR and Mobile apps.

These include improvements to our Awareness Test, Team Management tool and the ability to upload personalised Profile Pictures so user faces can take pride of place on leaderboards.

Awareness Test

Be Your Best users will be familiar with our in-game Awareness Test. 

The moment when players are tasked with remembering the colour shirts of nearby teammates and opponents in a test of their vision and memory skills. All whilst under the pressure of a time limit.

The best players in the world not only scan constantly, but they are also elite at retaining information and then processing and using that information to quickly inform their next decision.

This is why our Awareness Test is such an important and popular feature within our VR training app. And, it’s just got better, thanks to our users feedback!

Our Awareness Tests now only ask about players that are directly in your field of vision once the test commences - making the test more relevant to the game situation and faster to complete. Further increasing the realism of your VR training experience.

Additionally, we have also made subtle improvements to the pointers, making aiming of the controllers much clearer and easier for users of all ages.

Team Management Tool

Some of the best clubs in the world are using Be Your Best to improve their players' game intelligence.

Over the course of the summer, we were delighted to announce new partnerships with NK Celje, one of Slovenia’s premier football clubs, and Sporting Cristal, one of Peru's most successful football clubs.

These new collaborations showcase the impact our VR training app is having on the development of footballers across the world.

But this is not just happening in the professional game. Parents and coaches of aspiring players are also using Be Your Best to improve their kids' / players cognitive abilities from the comfort of their own home.

To further improve their user experience, clubs and parents with a Be Your Best subscription can now also benefit from improvements to our Team Management tool.

This update enables Team Managers and Parents to view training and progression details for team members, as well as invite or remove members from the team account.

Profile Pictures

Following the introduction of Challenges to the Be Your Best app, users have let us know how much they are enjoying competing with fellow players on the leaderboards.

Football is all about competition and we’re delighted this new training mode has been so well received by subscribers. 

Well now, not only will player’s chosen names take pride of place on leaderboards, but users can also upload their own personalised Profile Pictures.

To upload a Profile Picture, simply open the side menu in the Mobile App, go to Profile and then click on the avatar above your user name.

Once uploaded, your Profile Picture will be visible to other users on Leaderboards in both the Be Your Best VR and Mobile App. We have implemented a content moderation system that will detect and remove any Profile Pictures that are deemed inappropriate. 

This update helps further personalise users’ training experience and lets other subscribers know who’s the ultimate scanner!
