### 1/5 — Waste of Money

*2022-01-04*

Doesn’t work. Apparently I’m swinging 14mph

### 1/5 — No help

*2021-12-21*

Keep asking questions and not getting a response.

### 4/5 — Corrected Review

*2021-09-19*

I posted a 1 a little earlier and referred to the app as trash. But I was wrong and followed more accurately. It actually measured it properly. Sorry for the misunderstanding. I would recommend it. Thanks.

### 3/5 — Good and simple

*2021-07-03*

For the price this a great APP to give you a rough idea of your swing speed. The cheapest device out there is $500, eithe pros spending $20,000. So, at $1.99 this is pretty good. It’s also a great way to view your swing frame by frame.

### 4/5 — Easy to use

*2021-03-03*

Very easy to use and seems to line up with real data

### 2/5 — Cant input club length.

*2021-01-25*

I put in length, and both points on film, keeps telling me I have to input length!

### 1/5 — Crap

*2020-12-23, version 1.0.6*

Ridiculous.  Worthless.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2020-10-27*

I wish I could get my money back don’t waste your time

### 3/5 — Ok

*2020-10-19*

Does what it says and is easy to use but des have a few annoying bugs. For example you have close down the app and go back in to load a new swing video. Also not hugely accurate at each frame makes around 10mph difference. Worth £2.99 for a bit of fun for an amateur but I would recommend to professionals or low handicap players.

### 4/5 — Swing Speed App

*2020-10-04*

Good App.....filmed 3 slo-mo videos, 3 swings each video for a total of 9 swings at driving range, followed instructions and all my swing speeds were within 5-7 mph of each other. Slider button didn’t work very well but tapping the forward and backward double arrows worked fine to capture the 90 degree and hit the ball frames.

### 4/5 — Pretty cool

*2020-09-29*

Crashing problem when I first got it but may have been associated with iOS 14 release around the same time. I emailed support and received a nice email back a week later stating new version with fix dropped. I installed and app working great. Thanks to Will for being responsive. Fun little app. 
A suggestion: maybe have an option to just put club number in addition to inches for club length. Applicable to standard club length. Q

### 3/5 — Not worth the $2.99

*2020-09-22*

App fails to analyze my video despite following the instructions. Tried several videos. Sent my concerns to support. Got two responses with questions. Following my second response to their questions I haven’t heard anything since and that was four days ago. 
Hoping they’ll refund my money.

I am upgrading my review to 3 stars. Still couldn’t get my videos to work, but the developer did get back to me and provided a way to request a refund. I’m bummed that the app didn’t work for me but glad it is working for others.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t really work

*2020-08-30*

Yeah the app does something but it doesn’t measure swing speed plus no response to questions about the inaccurate results 
Don’t buy if you think this app will analyze your swing speed

### 1/5 — Golf Swing Speed

*2020-06-19*

Do not waste your time or money-not accurate.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-06-17*

Literally doesn’t work

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Not great

*2026-05-19*

If it was free brilliant but when it the difference in speed is 15mph by changing one frame it’s not so great so I am anywhere between 105-120mph

### 1/5 — Golf

*2025-04-08*

I can’t figure this app out.. I’m doing what it says and it’s doing nothing

### 1/5 — Sorry but it’s garbage

*2024-05-05*

It says my swing speed is 3.4 mph. Nope

### 1/5 — App is BROKEN. DO NOT BUY

*2023-12-13*

It’s a scam.

### 1/5 — Negative numbers

*2023-06-30*

Does not give me the correct swing speed.  All negative numbers.  The calibration dial is to touchy.  Very hard to get the two frames and my iPhone is set at 240.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2023-04-03*

Didn’t work don’t waste your money

### 1/5 — Ne fonctionne totalement pas

*2023-03-25*

J’importe les vidéos mais après rien n’apparaît. Je ferme, je réouvre, rien n’y fait. Totalement inutilisable.

### 1/5 — Not worth it

*2022-05-11*

Incredibly tedious to video yourself in slow motion, then upload a video, then manually analyze your swing within the app. Also software frequently does not work even after correct instructions are followed. Not worth it even for 2.99$

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2022-03-23*

Not accurate and cost money

### 1/5 — It simply doesnt work!

*2022-03-14*

Doesnt load videos. Waste of money

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-10-27*

Great app, first time I saw my swing.  Now if it could only recommend how to increase head speed!  Lol

### 5/5 — Nice app

*2021-08-13*

This seems to work pretty good.

### 5/5 — NICE

*2020-09-01*

Easy to use. No other equipment needed. Consistent and straight forward. Golfer can also easily see his or her swing technique.

### 5/5 — Worth the $3

*2020-08-03*

For me it works better as a very slow speed playback swing review/analysis tool. Recording and playing back every swing to determine each swing speed becomes tedious. But for $3 it works well at giving you an idea of your swing speed and much cheaper than instant feedback radar devises. Use the directional arrows, by tapping your finger on them, and you can analyze your swing frame by frame. I was initially frustrated by using the finger slide to find the exact frame to set the 90 degree and ball  parameters to measure swing speed. Then figured out you don’t push on the double arrows, but tap them quickly to refine the exact frame you want or to see your swing in super slow motion.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the review! I’m glad you find the app useful for swing analysis also!

### 5/5 — Works Great!

*2020-07-18*

Easy to use. Didn’t notice the frame advance buttons at first but sent an email and he responded right away. Can’t compare it with anything else but reading I got seemed about right. Good value.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the review!

### 5/5 — Easy

*2019-04-09, version 1.0.3*

Great app, easy to setup. Works okay in 120fps but is better in 240fps.

### 5/5 — Simple app to estimate your club head speed

*2019-03-21, version 1.0.3*

Straight forward, well designed app for calculating your club head speed. Clear instructions and the developer is quick to respond to any issues you may have. Hit em long and straight !!

### 5/5 — Good stuff!!!

*2019-02-24*

Great app! I mean for $4?!?? I wasn’t using it correctly at first so I emailed for support and got a response in minuets. 
Not only does it read your club head speed but you get video feedback as to where you are loosing/wasting power in your swing. 
Great stuff.

### 5/5 — Solid app and quick help

*2019-01-31, version 1.0.3*

Bought this app today and within 30 minutes (including an email with question for developer) was getting consistent and reliable swing speeds. Easy to operate. $3??? Fuggaboudit!! Great buy.

### 5/5 — Un outil très efficace

*2018-11-14*

La vitesse semble exacte il faut se souvenir de filmer au ralenti et que le point de départ, la mesure à 90 degrés,(le bâton est parallèle au sol)est dans la descente de l’élan à mi chemin vers la balle et non quand le corps est à 90 degrés en haut de l’élan arrière
