### 2/5 — Looks good but

*2024-10-31, version 5.3.1*

Doesn’t log anything on Apple Watch

### 4/5 — Tolle App

*2023-10-14, version 5.3.1*

Eine wirklich tolle App, die ich sehr oft nutze, wenn es um die Ermittlung von g-Kräften geht. Unter iOS 17 crasht die App aber leider regelmäßig, wenn ich aus Versehen auf den Einkaufswagen tippe. Könnte mal behoben werden, zumal der Entwickler so auch kein Geld erhalten wird. 😉

### 5/5 — Great app!!

*2022-06-27*

I love it! It would be great if lidar sensor could be logged as well. ;)

### 5/5 — Stream mag data on watch

*2022-04-12, version 5.2*

Is it possible to enable mag data recording on watch? Didn’t find that option.

### 2/5 — Help!

*2022-02-05, version 4.0*

Why does the pedometer not work?

### 5/5 — Feature request

*2022-01-15*

Hi 
I want to request for live camera feed via TCP

### 4/5 — Good and easy to use app

*2021-11-14, version 4.0*

This is a great app to log the Watch sensor data. I like the fact that you can log data on the watch for long term monitoring.

I am using this for my these to record hand motions in patients.

I wish the app could record for 24 hrs without needing to trigger it every 12 hours. Is there a work around ?

Also I wish the gyroscope was logged along with accelerometer in background logging mode.

Great app otherwise!

### 5/5 — awesome app

*2021-11-03*

it helped me a lot, very powerful tool

### 2/5 — Sampling rate has bugs

*2021-10-04, version 4.0*

I set the sampling rate to 60 hz, but the logged data has samples with sampling rate  around 33!

### 5/5 — Fantastic app

*2021-05-13, version 3.8*

Flexible and simple to use, with a ton of options.

### 5/5 — Optional Axis Selection for Unbiased?!?

*2021-04-19, version 3.8*

Anyway you could add a feature that enables the user to select the Preferred axis for “Unbiased Device Motion Data”? As the app currently stands, it’s only fixed to one plane. :( It would be very useful... Apart from that excellent app!

### 5/5 — Kleine App mit großem Umfang

*2021-03-03, version 3.8*

So viele Möglichkeiten die Sensoren des iPhones auszulesen- und das alles eigentlich für lau- obwohl mindestens nen Kaffee sollte man dem Entwickler schon zukommen lassen

### 5/5 — Top!

*2020-11-10, version 3.7.1*

Funktioniert alles (auch Langzeitmessungen) sehr zuverlässig. Die vielen  Einstellmöglichkeiten sind zu Beginn unübersichtlich - man gewöhnt sich aber dran.

### 5/5 — Almost perfect app

*2020-11-09, version 3.7.1*

Amazing app to get raw sensor data for my research. I wish it can also extract some other data (esp. heart rate). I imagine the app will be very popular with this added feature.

### 5/5 — Perfect tool!!

*2020-10-23, version 3.7.1*

Incredible tool to get data from sensor and use it for ML models. I’m using it from the very beginning and each new version is better.

### 4/5 — Feature request

*2020-09-25, version 3.7.1*

Any chance of recording gyroscope and accelerometer data from Apple AirPods Pro?

### 5/5 — sehr gut

*2020-07-02, version 3.7.1*

Jetzt noch für nextcloud phonetrack anpassen.

### 1/5 — Crashes on the watch

*2026-05-17, version 6.1*

As soon as I start recording on the watch the watch app crashes.  This is my use case, so 1 star.

### 1/5 — Flushing buffer

*2026-02-20*

Can you update the app to stop flushing buffer all the time!? I want to record sensor data every 10 secs. After a while, it keeps flushing buffer! I have to wait it to be okay, wasting quite a lot of time!

### 1/5 — ML MODEL

*2021-03-22, version 3.8*

Can’t load custom ML MODEL in the app with CoreML model ,had no documentation about templates.Can you provide example.

### 1/5 — Not appeared in my watch

*2018-12-29, version 2.4*

Any idea how to get it installed in my watch? It appeared once but disappeared and never come back

### 1/5 — Output File Time Tags worthless

*2017-09-03, version 1.9.6*

App measurement data collection is easy to initiate but limitations in the output measurement file time tags make the data useless for performing engineering analysis. I am using it to log time tagged earth magnetic field measurements. I tried to log the data at 100 hz but when I inspected the data file the time tags only have 1 decimal point of accuracy (0.1 sec) and there are multiple rows of data with the same time tag; thus when I collect data at say 100 hz, the data entries are not exactly 100 hz but some mismatch of approx 100 hz.

Any way I can force the output to be exactly the hz I want.

Also can you increase the time tag accuracy down to at least the hz you are collecting data at (e.g. If 100 hz data collection, then time tags accurate to 0.01 sec).

Without these fixes to you app, your app is worthless for engineers using it for engineering applications.

### 1/5 — Totally unusable & dev ignores support requests

*2015-09-05, version 1.7*

This seems like it should be an amazingly useful app. It has tons of options and has instrumented the entirety of the interesting sensors in the iPhone. 

Unfortunately none of that is worth anything because there's no way to get the resulting data files off of the phone. The email system doesn't work for any file larger than a few hundred KB and the http system resets the default sample to 1 second which makes the sample worthless. 

Additionally the developer completely ignores all requests for help.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2015-06-20, version 1.6*

Loads to black screen on iPhone 6 Plus iOS 8.3

### 1/5 — Broken

*2015-06-14, version 1.6*

App shows black screen

### 1/5 — Doesn't work on iPhone 6+

*2015-06-09, version 1.6*

Downloaded and installed on iPhone 6+ and just has a black screen. Uninstalled it.

### 1/5 — No longer functions (iOS 8.3)

*2015-05-23, version 1.6*

Title says it all.

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-03-25, version 6.1*

I have used this app to record motion data many times over the years and it still works well.

### 5/5 — WELL DONE!

*2025-08-12, version 6.1*

this powerful app is easy to use and does what is advertised.

### 5/5 — hello

*2025-07-02*

姿态角的单位是否可以选择度数而不是弧度 至少增加一个开关做切换

### 5/5 — Deutsch

*2024-11-28, version 6.1*

Das Programm ist sehr gut, aber wie kann man es auf Deutsch einstellen. Als Sprachen werden Englisch und Deutsch angegeben. 
Vielen Dank!

### 5/5 — Amazing free app, more features than even paid apps.

*2024-08-23, version 5.3.1*

I was looking for an app that could steam device accelerometer data across the network to my PC. This app offers that and more, all for free.

### 5/5 — The most comprehensive tracking app I have seen

*2024-06-11, version 5.3.1*

This application offers precise location recording on iOS, with a precision that is unmatched by all the other options I have tried.

Moreover, it lets you record all sorts of other parameters, like sound levels, orientation, battery level, steps counting, and more. It also exposes raw sensor data like magnetic and gyroscopic measurements.

The app is very customizable: you can set the recorded parameters, the sampling rate, and various output methods. All of this while integrating nicely with the OS.

The developer is helpful and quickly solved the few issues I was having with the app.

Definitely recommended.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2024-02-03, version 5.3.1*

This is what software is supposed to be. It works, it’s simple, it’s to the point, and it had a simple, no tricks pay once structure. After coming up with a project a couple years ago I finally implemented a POC of integrating sensor logs with an esp32 mesh network controlled by orange pi 5 plus. Works great, incredibly simple since all the hard work of the server setup is done. What’s better is how easy the config process is. Literally all the things you want on one screen. Bonus for downloadable configs!

Apps like this are why I’ve started making more of my own apps/projects. It’s hard to argue with special purpose no frills or trying to sell regurgitated poorly modified open source software (how many camera apps does one need to pay for that all utilize the same underlying software….poorly?). This is true software. Made by someone for a purpose which wasn’t to “get rich” quick selling bad derivatives. 

Bravo. 👍

### 5/5 — This is awesome

*2023-09-22, version 5.3.1*

For log to file can functionality be expanded to pass path to save? This cloud unlock writing to cloud by selecting OneDrive or iCloud

### 5/5 — Awesomeness

*2023-05-26, version 5.2*

Thank you for writing this application. This is a perfect example of what high-quality software should be.
Works as intended, every time. Lets the user retain ownership of the data and allows individual collecting the data to use it for their purposes.

### 5/5 — Tolle App

*2022-07-05, version 5.2*

Perfekte App um Daten aufzunehmen, der Preis ist gemessen am Funktionsumfang absolut angemessen. Wenn man sich nur mal ein paar Plots angucken möchte, dann ist diese App wahrscheinlich etwas „overkill“, aber für jeden der die Daten tatsächlich weiterverarbeiten möchte, dem kann ich sie nur ans Herz legen. 

Die Oberfläche im Native-Design sieht gut aus und ist recht intuitiv, soweit das bei den ganzen Funktionen eben möglich ist.
Insbesondere die Möglichkeiten über ein zweites Gerät mit App, Apple Watch oder die HTTP Schnittstelle die Aufnahme zu starten oder Daten zu streamen ist ebenfalls sehr praktisch wenn man die Möglichkeit hat Datenaufnahmen zu zweit zu machen. 
Absolute Empfehlung meinerseits.

Dazu kommt dass der Entwickler sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit ist.
Ich benutze die App für meine Bachelorarbeit und mein Feature Request wurde so schnell umgesetzt dass ich die Daten sogar moch damit aufnehmen konnte und mir viel Zeit beim Labeln erspart. Vielen Dank dafür!
