### 2/5 — Doesn’t Sync

*2025-07-19, version 1.1.4*

The new version of the app doesn’t offer the same functionality features as the original app. This makes it impossible to use on the Spinshot Plus machine. You simply cannot edit the drills on the new app!!

### 4/5 — Good but could be better

*2025-07-05, version 1.1.4*

Just one issues with the app. The good first. I can control it from the opposite side of the court. Ball feeder takes the changes right away, after you save. Now what can make it better. I just wished there was a away to configure the drills offline. This way you can do it before playing, especially if you think of something and don’t want to forget it or if it’s hot outside you don’t want to be under the sunder configuring it. And finally I wish there was a list of extra custom drills that we can pick from and add / remove from the top 12. I mean I’m pretty sure there are more drills out there, I’m not a coach so it’s hard to get creative.

### 2/5 — No battery level

*2025-03-31, version 1.1.4*

They use to have another app which was yellow color, it showed the battery level of the battery, this only shows Voltage but it’s buggy so it never displayed the correct amount. So you could be carrying the heavy machine around with a dead battery.

### 1/5 — Very buggy

*2024-11-20*

Randomly disconnecting. Very inconvenient when you’re on the court. Support is 👎🏻

### 2/5 — My version of the app doesn’t match images

*2024-11-07, version 1.1.4*

For some reason the app downloaded to my phone looks like a very old version and doesn’t match the images on the App Store. I cannot programme my own drills using the app only directly on the machine

### 1/5 — terrible

*2024-06-20, version 1.1.4*

the machine and app do not work for player model i can connect through wifi but then i cant even start the machine or control where the balls goes this is horrible i can even get the machine to shoot from the control pannel

### 2/5 — Manual button feed

*2024-01-24, version 1.1.4*

Is there a way to manual feed one ball at a time ? I feel like this feature would benefit when giving private lessons and teaching players at the same time.  App is great but very limited on the things you can do

### 5/5 — Would love for randomized speed and spin

*2023-12-02, version 1.1.2*

Love the tool and app so far. Would be great if the app and the machine firmware allows for a randomized speed and spin, preferably 4 to 5 dials worth of range. If the small range randomized could be applied to existing height and horizontal position that would be amazing!

### 1/5 — Poor connectivity

*2023-09-05, version 1.1.1*

Same issue as everyone else…. Connectivity drops when I move to the baseline. This seems to have started when I switched from Android to an iPhone.   And yes, I installed the latest software. Reached out to customer service… they were quick to respond but nothing worked.  Frustrating to spend 2k on a machine that I have to constantly walk back and forth to reset.

### 2/5 — Recent update really tanked the ball machine

*2023-08-28, version 1.1.1*

My Apple Watch could not consistently send the machine the proper drill, nor was the start or stop button working properly after the most recent update. Please fix ASAP
