Useful, but Tired of Subscriptions

A useful practice aid but there needs to be a one time purchase option. Stats are fairly accurate with a stable tripod but the numbers don’t always align with the video replay. The replay has been the most useful part of this, allowing me to quickly review my shot. Such a cool app and the dev has been making a lot of improvements. However, I am just sick and tired of everything being a subscription. I see no good reason why this couldn’t be a one time purchase with fully local data storage. I don’t need or want my sessions to be stored on a cloud server. Got some use out of it for a few months but I’m out unless the payment model changes.

First time to use

It’s a little hard to set up, but once I got it set up, it seemed to record all my shots accurately

Thanks! We're trying to make the setup process as streamlined as possible.

A Breakthrough

Good app overall, I have seen and learned on what to improve with my bowling and where to throw with my current arsenal of bowling balls.

Thanks! And soon, LaneTrax will be able to track what ball you're throwing, so yo'll be able to make data driven decisions based on each of your balls!

Great

This is a great app very helpful must have

Already Great

The app is great. As someone who has bowled for a short while casually and is now starting to take it more seriously, the fact that I can be provided some actual numerical stats along side video is extremely useful. Being able to look at my good shots as a baseline and to then see the difference in a shot that I *thought* was good but didn't quite do what I expected has helped me improve quite a bit in the few times I've already used it.

Gave 4/5 stars because I have 2 suggestions that would make this app absolutely incredible. First is that the lane detection can be finicky and doesn't try to automatically re-detect the lane. My tripod wasn't tall enough to sit on the ground so I had it on the table and the waiter placing a water on the table caused it to shake just enough that it lost the lane and I missed a few shots (including one where the 5 pin somehow hit the 8 then spun onto where the 4 was without falling). The phone slightly shaking and losing the lane by itself is fine, but when i selected the lane finder the lane was still perfectly within the view and i just had to press the button again. It would be great if there was an option we could enable where it would automatically try to find the lane again if possible.

The other suggestion would be if we could have the app record constantly when having it track every shot and we could have a button to save the last minute or so of footage in case the shot wasn't tracked. There were a few times when that happened to me, either because I lined up all the way to the gutter to get a ton of hook or because I was slightly off balance on release and stepped to the side and blocked the shot for a second. Being able to see as much of those shots as possible from a video would still be helpful even if it doesn't show stats for the throw.

Thanks! Glad LaneTrax’s been useful for you. Also, v2 is coming soon and it automatically zooms into the lane and corrects small misalignments on its own, so this should help a lot with the tracking issues you mentioned!

Doesn’t detect lane

Watched your setup video, app does not work as advertised. Multiple angles and tripod locations were attempted without success. At least I now have a tripod. App needs some work

Hey, sorry the app wasn't reading your lane. If you tap "Contact Support" in the app, I’ll be able to look through the data from the session to help you get it sorted out.

Rev rate seems off

Not sure when the camera starts to track rev rate. But, I feel it needs to happen earlier in the release. I have a feeling it’s doing it down lane closer to 30’ so by that time the ball is already starting to slow down. I’ve used SPECTO many times and plan to run this and SPECTO at the same time just to see.

I’d say it’s just OK

Response from developer

Hey, thanks for leaving a review. Rev rate is still very much a work in progress, but we currently measure it during the first one second of the shot. Depending on your ball speed, that can correspond to roughly the first 20–50% of the ball’s travel downlane. If you want a baseline to validate accuracy, the best approach is to review your camera feed frame-by-frame and count rotations over a known time window. Specto doesn’t directly measure rev rate; it estimates it using an equation based on other tracked metrics like hook boards.

Trash

Doesn’t detect lane even when Kane is clearly visible and entirely in the frame

Hey, sorry it couldn’t pick up the lane. That usually means the phone’s a little off or the tripod moved. If you tap "Contact Support" in the app, I’ll help you get it sorted out.

Hard alignment and it’s touchy

Maybe get access to sensitive settings

Hey, sorry the alignment’s been touchy; that usually happens when the phone is slightly out of position or the tripod isn’t completely stable. If you hit “Contact Support” in the app, I can help dial it in.

Awesome

Great app! Love the info it gives you so you can improve your game.

Thanks so much! Your note doesn’t match a 2-star rating. If that was intentional, please message us in-app so we can fix whatever’s off. If it was a mis-tap, an updated rating would mean a lot.

Real data

This app completely took the guess work out of evaluating shots. With the information this app provides I can now work on many things and truly track progress. Best money you will ever spend fora higher average. Skip the new shinny ball and invest in your form.

Tried the sample and was great then after i paid it never detected the lanes. Very frustrating and difficult to use. Want a refund this is garbage!

I’m sorry to hear about the frustration. If you send us a message directly through the app, we can work with you to get a refund processed and also help troubleshoot the lane detection so it runs smoothly for you. We want to make sure you have the experience you were expecting.

Works great!

Works much better than I had anticipated and it’s way more accurate than I thought it would be. We put it through some test and it seems to be holding up very well. This is a must have Bowling app.

Account Login

Is it possible to NOT use only Apple ID to login or use the app?

Using Apple ID keeps things simple and secure, and you won’t need to remember another password. If you run into any trouble signing in, please send us a message through the app and we’ll be glad to help.

Cost

Wish it would say how much it is for subscription. Because of that, I can’t risk it. Could be$.99 a month. Could be $500 a month. Very sketchy 🤦‍♂️

Thanks for your feedback! I think there may be some confusion around how our free trial works. You get 30 free shots up front, and we never collect any payment information to use them, they’re completely free, with no strings attached. After you’ve used the free shots, the app will then show you the option to subscribe, along with the exact pricing. Subscription pricing can vary depending on your country or if you were part of our beta program, but in the U.S. the base price is $9.99 per month. There are no hidden fees, and we’ll always show the price clearly before you’re ever charged. If it says “free,” it really is free.

Good Start

For the price, this is a great app. These are the stats I love. There are definitely things that could improve it though.

UI: the lane graph, while close to a true ratio of width to length needs to be wider to be useful for seeing you ball motion. I suggest removing one of the 2 columns of stats, and moving stats related to boards, such as launch board, arrows, break point and entry as labeled dots along the graph.

Modes: I recommend a ‘team’ mode or similar where you can track others when practicing or in league, so they can join in the fun of seeing their stats, without adding to MY stats.
Also, shots should be removable for obvious misreads by the app.

Scoring? Not sure if this beyond what the tech can do, but why not track scores too?

Really appreciate you taking the time to write all this out, and awesome to hear you’re liking LaneTrax so far and finding the stats useful! On the lane graph, that’s a solid suggestion. If you send it in through the in-app chat, we can log it on our end. For deleting shots, you can already do that by pressing and holding the info bar above the numbers during a session. And the “team mode” you mentioned is pretty much exactly what we’re building into our upcoming Coach Tier, which will let you track other bowlers without it mixing into your own stats. As for scoring, as much as I wish, that will never be a feature in the app. The way the camera is setup can’t tell the difference between sleeper pins like the 4 and 8, so it wouldn’t be reliable.

Can’t connect my USBC info

Downloaded the app and going through setup. When it asks me if I’m a USBC member, I click ‘yes’ and fill in my name and click ‘search’… and nothing. Says ‘invalid server response’. Haven’t been able to use the app yet.
