1. Pick one repeated movement
Start with a movement that has a visible start, direction change, and return. Push-ups, squats, deadlifts, or another supported repeated movement are better candidates than a complex flow with partial reps and body parts leaving frame.
2. Run a clean 10-rep baseline
Place the iPhone on a stable shelf, tripod, or stand. Keep one person in frame, make the lighting boring, and perform exactly ten reps at a normal pace. The first question is simple: did the counter land near the real count without needing a lucky angle?
3. Change only one setup variable
Run the same ten-rep movement again after changing one thing: phone distance, phone height, body angle, lighting, or where the movement starts in frame. Changing one variable at a time makes the result useful instead of anecdotal.
4. Test the warning state on purpose
A trustworthy camera counter should not guess through every bad frame. Try one obviously poor setup, such as partial body visibility or a second person entering the frame, and check whether LoopCam asks for better framing instead of returning a confident but unreliable count.
5. Report the mismatch, not only the score
The most useful feedback is specific: movement, actual reps, LoopCam count, phone placement, lighting, warning behavior, and whether optional local recording helped review the set. That information points to product fixes faster than a general note that counting felt good or bad.
What this test does not prove
A clean 10-rep test does not prove every exercise, every body type, every gym angle, or medical/form safety. LoopCam should be treated as an iPhone set counter for supported solo movements, not as a certified coach, injury-prevention product, or perfect accuracy system.
Send a compact field note
The best report is short: movement, ten real reps, LoopCam count, phone setup, and whether the warning state appeared when the frame was poor.
