TOMO Speaks Your Language

A massive expansion to TOMO's BJJ vocabulary. Voice recording now catches 986 techniques and training terms. Autocomplete knows hundreds more moves. Whether you call it a hitchhiker escape, upa, or tripod sweep — TOMO gets it.

Intelligence

Sharper Voice Recognition

TOMO's voice recorder now recognizes 986 BJJ-specific terms — five times more than before. Transcriptions catch technique names accurately on the first try.

  • Every major takedown, sweep, pass, submission, and escape from the 417-technique library
  • All alternate names and Portuguese/Japanese terms (juji gatame, mata leao, raspagem)
  • Modern leg lock vocabulary (saddle, honey hole, 50/50, backside 50/50, inside sankaku)
  • Training terms (rolling, flow rolling, open mat, drilling, positional sparring)
  • This upgrade works for everyone immediately — no app update needed

Autocomplete Knows More Moves

The technique autocomplete in the Review screen now suggests from 987 terms — up from 187. Hundreds of techniques that used to require custom entries are now one tap away.

  • Mount escapes: trap and roll (upa), elbow-knee escape, heel drag, hitchhiker escape
  • Open guard sweeps: tripod, sickle, crab ride, DLR ankle pick, koala guard
  • Modern takedowns: low single, lateral drop, slide-by, drop seoi nage, tani otoshi
  • Flying submissions: flying armbar, flying triangle
  • Advanced submissions: arm-in guillotine, banana split, inverted triangle, can opener
  • Wrestling: Russian tie, arm spin, cradle, knee tap, duck under, snap down

Better Insight Connections

Weekly and monthly insights can now link more of your logged techniques to the technique library. When an insight mentions a technique you drilled, "Tell me more" chat has richer context to work with.

Single Source of Truth

Behind the scenes, TOMO's technique data now lives in one place instead of three. Adding a new technique — or fixing a name — flows to voice recognition, autocomplete, and insights from a single source. Future updates to the library will be faster and more consistent.

Fix

Rebuilt Editing & Insight Components

While shipping this update, we discovered several supporting components for the Review screen, post-save screen, and weekly insight links needed to be rebuilt. The features work the same as before, but if anything looks or behaves slightly differently from past versions, please flag it — we'd rather hear about a small detail than miss it.

  • Technique & submission autocomplete in the Review screen
  • Autocomplete in the saved-session edit sheets
  • Post-save success screen with quote & week teaser
  • Tappable technique names inside weekly insights
  • Session mini-cards that appear when you tap a linked technique
UX

Redesigned Training Details Editor

The Training Details edit sheet has been completely rebuilt. Training Mode and Sparring now use clean segmented controls. Session Type uses full-width selectable rows so "Regular Class" and "Comp Training" are fully readable. Duration uses a grid layout with "min" labels.

  • No more truncated text in tiny boxes
  • Every option clearly labeled and easy to tap
  • Warm-up editor also upgraded to match
UX

Every Field is Now Editable

Previously, session fields like Sparring, Instructor, Warm-up, and Injuries were hidden when empty. You had to hunt for tiny "+ Add" links at the bottom. Now every field from the recording flow is always visible on your saved sessions with a clear "tap to add" prompt.

UX

Subs Landed & Got Caught: Front and Center

Your submission data is no longer buried inside the Sparring section. "Subs Landed" (green) and "Got Caught" (red) are now their own dedicated sections on every session. You can add, edit, or review submissions at any time, even if you forgot to log them during recording.

UX

Sparring Rounds Go Higher

The sparring round picker used to max out at 8. If your class runs 10 or 12 rounds, you were stuck. The new stepper lets you tap up to 20 rounds, with large minus/plus buttons and a big gold number. Works in both the recording flow and the session editor.

UX

Change Your Gym After Saving

Trained at a different gym but forgot to switch it before recording? The gym is now tappable on your saved session. Tap it to search and pick the right location, even after the session is saved.

Why this matters: BJJ has hundreds of terms, with the same move known by different names depending on your lineage — upa, bridge escape, trap and roll. TOMO should speak all of them. With this update, your voice memos land accurately on the first try, your autocomplete finds the technique you mean, and your weekly insights can connect more dots across your training.
