  • HOW IS THIS APP WORTH $6?

    I saw the app, noticed it was $6 I thought it had to be good. Don’t get me wrong all the options they give you are really good but THEY DONT WORK. The analyzing hasn’t worked for me a single time! They don’t even let u draw your own tracer. I noticed they have a map feature but I have to spend another $2 a month?! Trying to navigate the camera roll is a nightmare showing it in a column rather than your whole camera roll. Look, I like the idea. If this was a free app, I would’ve given it 3 1/2 stars, but it’s $6! I already found another great golf tracer that does everything this app does but better, and guess what. ITS FREE! Don’t waste your money on this app until it’s fixed.

  • It’s a little finicky but if your not retarted it works great

    you definitely have to get the right angle and a tripod is definitely nice but u can still use without just have steady hands but seems to work pretty decently does crash a good bit but if u have the patients to just keep trying it’s not that bad at all but expect to get a little frustrated every now and then. enjoy

  • Waste of money

    Wow what a waste. The app and their Instagram post gives you the impression that it will trace your shot as you’re hitting up. This is not the case. You have to take a video then the app edit the video to give you the shot tracer. Lots of steps and a waste of time. This is not something you could do on the Teebox very quickly. Rather this is something you would take videos of while you’re on the Teebox and then at a later time edit the videos.

  • Needs less steps.

    Im a big fan of the app. Its made me want to go to the driving range and get more swings in to record them.

    I dont understand why we dont have the option to preview a video before saving to camera roll? When the tracking is off we have to fix it manually and if we dont get it right the first time, the workflow creates redundancy where the user has to go back i to the camera roll to delete the unwanted edits.

    Had the developers thought of that workflow with simplicity in mind i would have rated this app 5 stars.

    Please consider this in the next update.

  • Was good while it lasted

    The App was lots of fun to use and was a great way to provide self feedback, however the app is extremely buggy and now won’t allow me to save videos. Quite disappointing.
  • Really digging the Shot Tracer app!

    Let me start by saying I was a little hesitant to spend money on this app due to some mixed reviews in the App Store. After one range/practice green session I was really impressed with how simple the app is to use. I used a tripod with a phone mount and my iPhone XS Max to record videos, then imported them into the app when I got home. The ball flight is pretty true for the most part, and I love how you can change the color and configuration of the line, add effects, etc. Some people complained it didn’t pick up their ball flight, but I didn’t experience that issue in probably 30 or so tracked shots. Maybe they weren’t using a tripod?? The only reason I give it a 4 star rating and not 5 is because, while it does track all of my ball flights, the flight is not always accurate and sometimes have to manually adjust landing area. Also, the app tends to crash a lot when attempting to save to my camera roll. Maybe because I was using the app for an extended time period?? Either way, if you’re on the fence about purchasing this app, DO IT. As long as you use it correctly, you won’t be disappointed!

  • Works Pretty Well. Needs an update for new iPhones.

    Works pretty well with some work on my side. If you have a tripod and take the time to position it correctly it works great. I do wish they would optimize the app for newer iPhones. The app is cut off in a couple of places likely due to the different screen dimensions. If you’re trying to get a decent shot tracer this app will work well.

  • Tracing works terrible!!

    I purchased this app because I thought it would work great, it works terribly! I know it works great on tour with the excellent technology at the tee boxes and multiple cameras stuff, but I have an iPhone X and when I film the hits, the app cannot even find the START of the ball, less off the flight of it! The ball will go straight, and then the tracer flies out of the screen and comes down like ten seconds later. This would all be a moot point if at least the manual tracer worked good. It’s also AWFUL! Unlike other apps, you can’t just tap the strike point, tap the end point, and easily pick the flight pattern and curvature of the hit as well as flight time to make everything perfectly accurate. I have spent hours trying to get this app to work and I have not traced a SINGLE ball correctly or even remotely to the shape of the hit. I literally wasted my $6. I chose to buy this because I thought it would be the best, but I’m going back to find a free app that works much better.

  • Cool but Not

    Thought this would track a ball by just taking a video of a person hitting. Maybe I’m wrong but it requires you to record the hit/swing. Then go back into the app and basically draw the line of the ball flight with a grid. You could hit a draw and basically pencil in a fade and nobody would know the difference. This app doesn’t seem to do what I wanted it to. Guess I didn’t read enough about it. Now it’s just another app taking up space on my phone. I’m probably not going to erase it because I paid for it.

  • Fiddly but works

    It can take a couple goes to work out how use it properly but I find if you film with your phone dead still like on a tripod or lean it back against a tee peg it traces the ball better. You have to manually adjust the flight path most of the time to get it perfect but once you learn how to do it I find that it is great.
