### 5/5 — Fantastic Traing Aod

*2026-08-23*

This training aid will definitely help your golf swing get dialed in if you have swing faults. I used this to shot in the 70’s for the first time last year.  Such a fantastic training aid for golfers of all levels.

### 5/5 — 1st week HM

*2026-08-20*

Well, I thought my swing was OK, but it was not. HM showed my weak spots, especially at impact. I still can’t get any flexion at impact…this is after a week. Played my usual 9-holes which I usually shoot +6. Yesterday I was +4. Very impressed with the progress so far.

### 5/5 — How it should be done

*2026-08-12*

I love Hack Motion. I have led product at different software companies, and I can tell you that the people that are running product at Hack Motion are exceptional. I also love how everything is included in your tier without a monthly charge, and they just keep on delivering more and more value. This is so good and so helpful for my game that I kind of want to invest in them, which is really saying something.

### 5/5 — Outstanding training aid

*2026-07-29, version 4.128.0*

I’ve only had HM 4 a couple of months I use about 3 times per week but my ball striking is so much cleaner and precise I’ve managed to shave 0.4 off my handicap and I really enjoy have real time feedback.

### 1/5 — Drill practice non functional

*2026-05-30, version 4.121.0*

Anytime I try to do the drill for casting, it honks right in the middle and stops recording because I was doing the drill instead of a full swing. What’s the point of the drill practice mode?

### 1/5 — Awful

*2026-04-24, version 4.114.3*

Won’t connect after changing phones and not playing golf for a while. Impossible to access account after changing phones. Raised a ticket and just been ignored. Awful for the price it cost.

### 1/5 — Appalling profit and worse service

*2026-03-05, version 4.107.0*

I have owned this for 9 months - it head worked once and since then won’t connect. I have messaged and emailed customers support incessantly and have not one response.

### 5/5 — Continually adding new features

*2026-02-18*

Adding more features and better drills. 
Definitely have a better understanding of the golf swing

### 5/5 — This Takes Away all the Guessing

*2026-01-26*

No matter how long I tried, the golf swing happens too fast for me to understand what’s going on and what I need to change with my swing. I’ve bought more golf training aides than I can count, including a $2000 launch monitor - this device has by far been the best for me. It tells me the brutal truth about my swing, then gives lots of easy to understand tutorials and drills to help me improve. The other thing I love is the HackMotion team continues make updates to the app to provide more useful data and features. This device and the app are a must if you’re serious about improving your golf game, even if you’re getting lessons.

### 3/5 — New App = less swings captured

*2026-01-16*

I’ve had the hack motion now for about a year and have now gone through two or three app updates. It seems to me every time I experience an app I see less and less swings being captured.

**Developer response:** Hi - since end of 2025 we have launched a completely reworked full swing detection system. If you're still having issues with detection, please reach out to our support team so that we can investigate further.
