Then the update came and added the auto ball tracking, which sounds like a good idea, but half the time it doesn’t work and I just get stuck on a 95% loading screen indefinitely effectively making the legacy tracer unusable. ### 3/5 — Go back to old app! *2026-05-18, version 1.11.191* I use this app every day and now the mode I always used is called “legacy editor” and it’s super laggy the pro editor is just extremely over developed and not easy to use, please just fix the legacy editor so it’s not laggy and let me use that thank you! ### 3/5 — Used to be good before update *2026-05-18, version 1.11.191* Used to love using this app for making golf content, but since the recent update and changing the way of editing, nothing works on it, doesn’t export properly and can’t use the original editor properly. Overly disappointed to be honest ### 3/5 — Downloading *2025-12-28, version 1.9.2* Downloading is not the best. ### 3/5 — Decent *2025-08-19, version 1.9.0* Spent 10 or so on the lifetime membership but the app was having a hard time stabilizing videos that are hand held, so you can’t track your ball unless you record with a tripod. ### 1/5 — Kompletter Schrott *2025-06-15* Die App funktioniert gar nicht. Scam ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-06-15, version 1.8.8* App doesn’t work. When you place the crosshairs over the ball and press next it does nothing. ### 2/5 — Not downloading to my phones *2025-06-10, version 1.8.8* The app works perfectly fine until I go to save and download to my phone. It just says saved then nothing happens and it hasn’t downloaded, I check my videos and there’s nothing ### 1/5 — Put this app out of business *2025-06-06, version 1.8.8* Terrible app, does not work at all. Downvote this app and leave negative reviews for this app. To put it out of business to not rip anyone off anymore. ### 2/5 — Expect a lot of crashing *2025-05-23, version 1.8.6* Never known an app to crash so much when using. I have tried to export the same clip 4+ times and crashes every time. I hope for the sake of those who pay for the desktop version that it’s better than this. My advice on using this app: be prepared to try and export several times and don’t even try editing anything over 30 seconds. ### 1/5 — Video Quality *2025-05-21, version 1.8.5* You ruined the video quality with the latest update. ### 2/5 — works well but runs bad *2025-05-11, version 1.8.2* the app works and all the features work, but it is very very poorly optimized. i’m on an iphone 14 but the app runs at like 1 frame a second, lags, etc. also takes a very long time to upload a short video to camera roll ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2025-04-30, version 1.8.2* Online it says you can add multiple traces if you have multiple shots in 1 video. You cannot do that. Also the app crashes when i try to add traces to certain videos. ### 1/5 — Video won’t save *2025-04-28, version 1.8.2* I still have 2/5 free saves and was prepared to buy the full version as this app was perfect. Now it’s glitched and won’t let me save anything and there’s no menu to buy the full version. Tried to delete and redownload and updated my phone firmware. Still no luck. ### 1/5 — Crashes every time *2025-04-27, version 1.8.2* I just downloaded the app and I can’t import a video over 30 seconds long otherwise the app crashes and never loads the app. I really want to add shot tracers to my YouTube videos and was ready to pay the 4.99 for this app as it looks amazing but it would not work at all. Very unfortunate ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ad misleading *2026-07-17, version 1.11.237* Downloaded to check it out as it shows live tracking. No where does it have go live. just upload videos. not helpful at all ### 1/5 — Waste of Money *2026-07-03, version 1.11.237* What a waste of money. You have to manually edit the shot tracer and landing zone. Then you can’t even download your edited videos. Save your money, brutal. ### 1/5 — It's sad that the iPhone cannot be downgraded. *2026-05-17* After updating, it became very difficult to use. **Developer response:** This issue was fixed in the latest version. Please feel free to update review ### 1/5 — Tracer fail!!!! *2026-04-29, version 1.11.117* I purchased this and the tracer is not rendering at all when trying to save the video. It renders on the preview fine but when I hit the download button and it saves to my phone the tracer is not there. Absolutely rubbish. I also paid the $7.99 one off purchase for unlimited downloads to no avail. ### 1/5 — Waist of money *2026-04-26, version 1.11.117* The app every time you try to download the clip kicks you out. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2026-01-23, version 1.9.2* You have to do all the steps and it just shows the line.you have to put in the landing point where the ball is and it’s annoying ### 1/5 — Absolut nutzlos./Useless *2026-01-11* The previous app was just great and I loved it. The new one is just a waste of money. **Developer response:** This issue was fixed in the latest version. Please feel free to update review ### 1/5 — Broken app with no support *2025-10-09, version 1.9.2* The app’s “Restore Purchase” feature doesn’t work. Messages sent to the developer’s support methods have gone unanswered. I’ve also tried contacting them through their website chat for over a month, which is always offline and still no response. ### 1/5 — Does not allow export after purchase *2025-08-27, version 1.9.0* This would be 5 star review if it would allow me to export the edited videos I’ve made since purchasing the app. The free renders worked, but once the app was purchased for the $5.99 lifetime access, it refuses to export the edited videos to my camera roll. Huge let down. ### 1/5 — Crashes Every Time *2025-07-08, version 1.8.8* The app crashes every time you try to save a video. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Very good *2026-07-08, version 1.11.237* I love this app and have been using it for awhile for videos, but I’ve recently noticed with the new update that adds descend time for the legacy feature makes things more complicated, I liked it better when it was just speed of the tracer and not descend, launch speed, and apex float, my travers before were nice and know I have to sit here and tweak everything to make it look like smooth, you guys should keep a separated section for people that only want the simple legacy feature and not all that other stuff ### 5/5 — Seems good *2025-08-12, version 1.8.9* I’m just trying to figure it out and so far I like it. Can’t zoom in as good I’ll like it maybe that’s because of how the video was taken. I’ll see on my next round of play ### 5/5 — Shot Tracer 업그레이드 버전 *2025-06-05* 훌륭한 트레이스를 만들어주고 사용하기도 매우 쉽습니다. 맵 트레이서도 사용해봤는데 정말 잘 작동했어요~ ### 5/5 — Must-Have App for Golfers – Now Even Better with Map Tracer! *2025-05-15, version 1.8.4* I’ve been using the Shot Tracer Editor app for a while now, and it’s hands down the best tool out there for visualizing golf shots. The original tracer features are already top-notch, but the new Map Tracer update takes it to another level. Highly recommend this app. ### 5/5 — No issues. *2025-03-26, version 1.8.2* So far so good, exports well, easy to use. ### 5/5 — Great app BUT *2025-03-13, version 1.8.2* The app is great, the fact that it stabilises the recording if it’s handheld is brilliant. There seems to be a bug where it keeps all the recordings even if you delete them within the app. It’s currently taking up 10GB of storage on my phone ### 5/5 — Human occlusion 🔥🔥🔥 *2024-11-23, version 1.7.7* Love the new Shot Tracer app! Human occlusion feature is 🔥🔥🔥 ### 5/5 — This is the best *2024-11-21, version 1.7.7* Amazing that is so easy to use and finally an app that doesn’t charge subscription but a one time fee. Great value great app. Thank you Shot Tracer ### 5/5 — Amazing *2024-11-13, version 1.7.5* I’m an avid shot tracer guy with my mates and I’ve never reviewed an app before. I saw a negative one and thought they must be high. It’s absolutely elite. I love it. You can move the camera a bit but it doesn’t work as well if you start the video from side on and then move it to the landing position - I hope that makes sense. You can also use 4k which is unreal. The speed the shot tracer goes is too fast - and making it go its slowest isn’t slow enough - that’s my only negative comment. Just get it. ### 5/5 — Best tracer app *2024-11-07, version 1.7.5* That’s what the pros use for their YouTube videos! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
