User Reviews: SkyPro Swing Trainer

Top reviews

  • Hardware problem

    The plastic casing on mine popped open after seven swings with a seven iron. To the company's credit, they replaced it promptly by mail. Only hoping that this one is more durable. The software works well.
  • Great support with great potential

    The developers on this product have been fantastic! Every request we made on golfwrx has found itself into this update. The technology is in the little white and orange thingy... Infinite upgrades can and will be made to the app to interpret the data. It's already great but has still so much untapped potential. I for one am looking forward to what's in store.
  • Needs some fixes, but promising.

    First, can't seem to delete the demo swings. I was able to delete my swings, so I know how the delete function works, but no dice on the demo swings. Annoying.

    Second, my device said "Rico" on the Bluetooth list. Took me a minute to figure out that it was the SkyPro device. Not sure why it says "Rico."

    Third, customer service this far has been poor. Über long hold times, and no email option I can find.

    Other than that the app is slick and fairly intuitive. The device seems pretty accurate as I manipulated a bunch of swings to see how the device would respond and it did well.
  • Good, but needs data transfer,

    Good consistent data, but need a way to send the detailed data to something like Excel where it can be seen easier and also plotted.

    Almost all of my swings have been recorded without issue.

    As with one of the other reviews, I would like some instruction based on alerts.
  • Not as expected

    The app works ok with the device. It measures most swings without a problem.

    I was expecting a lot more feedback from The device itself, Skypro. The groove session only helps you repeat a move on a swing you have already performed, but never teaches you how to perform or feel that mood.

    Although it does point out flaws, i would have liked a straightforward approach where the app would not only tell you your flaw (which it does) but a tip on how to improve or work on that flaw. It tells you a few flaws at somepoint in the swing and leaves you on your own.

    Also, only measures club, and not body (shoulder turn for example). Very incomplete in my opinion, but hopefully they upgrade the app to cover these things in the future.
  • Hoped for more

    Recently received my SkyPro -
    1) The on-club Device looks pretty slick, except for the little (big) wheel… a little distracting.
    2) Calibration is pretty embarrassing at the range… plus you have to put your $600 iPhone on the face of a filthy/sandy club face every time you want to switch clubs. I'd hate to try calibrating with my iPad...
    3) Out of my first 6 swings it only recorded 1
    4) I don't really like that you actually have to interact with the app at the range to get any value out of it. Some of the similar apps/devices display all of the pertinent information immediately on the screen, whereas with sky pro you really have to dive into the screens to get any valuable data out of it.

    Expected more with the Skygolf name behind it. It seems more like a toy/gadget than a real learning/improvement tool.
  • Pretty good, but?

    Very good so far. But, how do we get information Barbour the cloud storage. Also, how can we access the swings on our other devices?
  • Ipad App

    Can you guys get this into an ipad format as well. The app is good just wish you had it available for the iPads. Much easier to see and show stude to on the larger screen.
  • Great app. Actually works.

    Makes the other devices on the market seem like toys versus golf tools.
  • Great product!

    No other product lets you view your swing in 3D! This is great!!
