Sie hat eigentlich alle Basisfunktionen, die man dafür braucht. Das aufnehmen einer Analyse direkt am Gerät, um es später anderen zeigen zu können, ist sehr nützlich. Insbesondere gefällt mir grundsätzlich auch die Option, Szenen einer Aufnahme zu speichern und zu beschriften, um mit einem Klick später auf diese Szene zurückzukommen. ABER: sobald die Datei fertig analysiert wurde und man sie noch mal öffnet, dann sind zwar die gespeicherten Szenen noch da, allerdings wenn man auf diese klickt, dann sind sie zeitversetzt. Wenn man zum Beispiel in der zehnten Minute des Videos eine Szene gespeichert hat, und später beim erneuten Öffnen der App auf diese Szene klickt, dann geht er zwar auf diese Szene zurück, allerdings ist der Zeitbalken unten nicht korrekt, sondern um einige Minuten verschoben. Das ist ein kleiner Fehler, der aber sehr ärgerlich ist, insbesondere wenn man mehrere Szenen in einem Video gespeichert hat. Dann verliert man schnell den Überblick. Das ist sehr schade. BITTE an die Entwickler: korrigiert doch bitte diesen Fehler mit einem kurzen kleinen Update. Eine weitere Kleinigkeit, die zu bemängeln wäre, ist, dass die Kaufversion keine weiteren Funktionen ermöglicht, sondern nur den Speicherplatz für Videos in der App erhöht. Es wäre schön, wenn der Nutzer vor dem Kauf diese Information hätte. Denn ich habe mir leider etwas mehr erhofft. Alles in allem ist es aber eine gute und einfache Möglichkeit, Videos zu analysieren. Vielen Dank! ### 4/5 — Close to greatness for me *2026-01-30* One feature that I wish was in here is the ability to move my lines, especially when measuring angles. If I’m doing a detailed analysis of biomechanics, it’s hard to nail the line placement without having any adjustment feature. I’ve seen other apps handle this by letting you move the endpoints that make up your angles and lines which lets you get a lot more precise. Overall, great app and super helpful for me. Just wish that one feature was in there. ### 4/5 — Coach View Slowmo Video Player *2025-12-19* Good so far. Have to figure out how to export vids, then I’ll be good. **Developer response:** Thank you for leaving a review. You can export a video by making an "analysis video". Analysis videos will record commentary and allow you to step through the video to show an athlete areas they are doing correctly and need improvement. ### 4/5 — Almost 5 stars *2025-10-02* I’m glad I found this app. I upgraded because: 1) It works on my older iPad and iPhone that I cannot update 2) It’s not a subscription model and it’s reasonably priced 3) It has the basic features I needed The tags feature is also a nice touch especially for those with a lot of clips to analyze. I would change it to 5 stars if: 1) The compare mode had an overlay mode where you can compare the two videos on top of each other at various transparencies (a common feature in these coaching apps) 2) The coarse time scrubber had variable sensitivity as you drag your finger up (finer scrubbing as you go up) 3) There was a way to set a looping section of the video, and play the loop only (or ignore it) Not sure if the developer reads these reviews but if so, great work and thank you for making this app available! **Developer response:** Thank you for the kind words and leaving a detailed review. I really appreciate the suggestions and I think they are all great ideas. I'll talk to the team, especially your first idea of comparing videos by overlapping them with transparency. ### 3/5 — Des progrès en vue *2025-09-15* L’application est assez complète pour une analyse vidéo simple mais l’importation de plusieurs fichier est pas accessible et fait perdre beaucoup de temps… Sinon interface simple et efficace . ### 4/5 — Watch Support *2025-06-13* Could you add support for Apple Watch just for start and stop Recording? Thank you **Developer response:** Cool idea. We can look into it! ### 3/5 — Needs more speed options *2025-05-25* As a dancer, I often practise at .75x speed. This doesn't offer as much granularity, only .5 increments. Still useful to go through videos. It would be amazing to be able to loop a shorter section. **Developer response:** We added .75x speed in our last update for you! ### 4/5 — Great, basic video analyzer *2025-04-06* Good price for great video analyses. The option to select play back speed is very easy and useful. The marking tools work, but hard to do any type of overlay or compare against another video. The window size is limited on a large screen I suspect the app is throttling resolution. ### 4/5 — Two details away from perfection *2025-01-20* I’ve been using this app for a while now, and overall, it’s excellent. The functionality is top-notch, and it performs very well. However, the graphics could use an update as they feel a bit outdated. One feature that would be incredibly useful is the ability to import videos directly from the file system, not just from the photo gallery. Additionally, it would be indispensable to have the option to import multiple files at once, ore to export a frame in a image with the same resolution of the video ### 4/5 — Presque parfaite…😊 *2024-06-29* En tant que prof d’Eps, j’attendais une appli de ce type depuis l’arrêt de VideoPix. Super intéressant pour remontrer à ses élèves de manière quasi instantanées certaines actions ou postures. J’aurais mis 5 étoiles, mais il me manque quelque chose. Pour une ergonomie parfaite, il faudrait rajouter 2 boutons cliquables + et - à droite juste au-dessus du curseur pour faire des avances ou recules image par image. Toujours plus précis que d’amener le curseur sur l’image que l’on souhaite voir. Le curseur est parfait pour amener à la séquence souhaitée mais difficile pour une précision extrême. J’ai mis aussi un peu de temps pour trouver le chemin, pour avoir accès à ses propres vidéos. En espérant que ma remarque soit prise en compte dans une prochaine mise à jour et mettre 5/5, je vous félicite pour votre travail et espère que cette appli perdurera dans le temps 🥰 **Developer response:** Our 1.6.0 update includes a frame by frame feature you might find useful. You can now double tap the video edges to move frame by frame! Please let us know if you have any feedback on this or any other feature. Notre mise à jour 1.6.0 inclut une fonctionnalité image par image qui pourrait vous être utile. Vous pouvez désormais appuyer deux fois sur les bords de la vidéo pour vous déplacer image par image ! N'hésitez pas à nous faire part de vos commentaires sur cette fonctionnalité ou sur toute autre fonctionnalité. ### 4/5 — Screen drawing - Need *2024-06-27* To be able to erase the last step and redraw **Developer response:** You have two options in CoachView to erase drawings. If you scroll the drawing toolbar to the right, you will see UNDO, REDO and ERASE buttons. 'Undo' will remove the most recent drawing, while 'erase' will remove all of the drawings. Use redo if you've removed something that you still need. ### 5/5 — Better then expected *2024-06-26* This tool blew away my expectations. I've recommended it to all the skiing instructors I know to help them. ### 5/5 — Great Support *2024-06-26* I had a small issue with this app, but the developer helped me. Now it works great and I've started helping my son with his pitching. **Developer response:** Always happy to help, thank you for using CoachView! ### 5/5 — This was a great app *2024-06-25* I use this app for all my soccer trainings and games it helps me find what I need to work on by recording them. I use this now instead of Coaches Eye **Developer response:** Thanks for the review! Glad to hear you're liking CoachView. ### 5/5 — Au top *2024-05-07* Super appli pour decomposer les gestes **Developer response:** Thank you! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Can’t export *2026-02-28* The app says you can export video, but when I try, it says iCloud has a problem. But the video isn’t even in iCloud. The video I recorded doesn’t even show up in Files because the app doesn’t provide a folder. ### 1/5 — Long videos won’t play *2025-01-19* Can’t get it to play longer videos **Developer response:** We just published an update (v1.6.2) that includes some fixes for longer videos.

Tried importing the second video and the app just would not recognize the album folder on my phone. Trying to delete the only video I somehow managed to import is impossible. (Delete / confirm / done = video still there) Stop App \ Restart \ try accessing folder \ same result. For $7.00 I managed to waste 4 minutes on my afternoon. Done with messing around, deleting and moving on. **Developer response:** Please reach out to us at support@firecrackersw.com.
