Amazing product

This is an amazing basketball it would 100% be a five star but all it says for feedback is release angle and shot ark.

Response from developer

Thank you for your review! We're glad you're enjoying the basketball, and we appreciate your feedback. In addition to release angle and shot arc, the app also provides spin rate and release time as part of your shot feedback. If you'd like to discuss in more detail, please contact us here: https://support.spalding.tf-dna.app/en-US/contact. We'd love to hear your ideas.

HORSE

Works well. Lots of potential. Why can’t you play HORSE with this? Seems like low fruit and a waste.

Glitchy

The app just sometimes glitches out in the middle of a session and freezes

Response from developer

Hi, thank you for your feedback. Please contact us at https://support.spalding.tf-dna.app/en-US/contact and we’ll get this sorted.

Great but not great

But this thing just does not keep track of your distance. I have measured multiple times on a Level court, and it still says the wrong distance, disappointed, but great for young learners

Not worth it

It’s a good idea to have a ball that tracks your shots but Spalding did it wrong, especially making it $250!!! It dribbles weird and kind of makes me shoot weird (to be fair I use it ouside but it still feels weird). Anyway, the app is the real thing I’m reviewing, and it is a whole other issue, it is an ok app and all but it is not worth $100 a year or whatever, unless you play tons of basketball, which I do and still think it’s not worth it. Don’t get me wrong the app itself is pretty good but it would be way cooler if there was an option to kind of 1v1 someone and see who can make more shots in a certain amount of time.

Response from developer

Thanks for your feedback! We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. The ball is designed to bounce just like a regular basketball. Please contact us at https://support.spalding.tf-dna.app/en-US/contact and we'll get this sorted for you right away. We also wanted to let you know that we do have a competitive feature! You can challenge other users and compare scores in our Shootout mode, which you can find in the app under Social → Shootouts.

Add feature

After a workout, please add a feature called shot map. It shows every shot you took, and where you took it from. If you click on a shot, it shows your release time, arc, and spin rate.

Yas queen

So cool

shot determination

it says half the time i air ball when really i just hit rim. also it says i hit rim when really i make it. pls change it

Needs to work with Apple Watch

My son likes it a lot. It would be nice if there was a way to sync with an apple watch app. It could show stats without walking to the main device. I’d bet there is a way the watch could also enhance the accuracy of the distance estimates, which are off from time to time (e.g. pointer reads as a 15 footer).

Great

The best app ever

Spalding TF DNA

Haven’t used much but so far I’ve loved it due to its ability to track shooting percentage and give solid feedback on what to improve. The feedback given to me surpasses any kind of assumption of what’s wrong with my shot.

Quality Ball & Feedback

The ball feels great and the feedback is fun if you like stats. I am
curious on the arc feedback but the ball is spot on for distance, makes, misses and spin.

Apparently

This app is so good it helps me with my shooting for my games .

Not bad

Sometimes it doesn’t always track arc correctly or spin.

Great app… expansion?

Would love to see where this app goes next.
Anything for a righty who is practicing lefty? I imagine that’s not a difficult addition.

What about dribbling?

Passing precision? You’re almost there anyway with the shooting algorithm.

What about in-competition? App-switching profiles based on who has the ball in a one v. one game (the second you add a team effort it gets really difficult).

Happy to show your devs how to do some of this if needed.

Basketball

Storage in Nintendo shot day with this app and I made all of them. It helps so much because it tells me how much I made how much I missed and it helps with my basketball. I was pretty good at basketball now Best on my team thanks to this app.

Very fun

Very fun

This app is tuff

Tufffffff

Not bad not amazing

My dad took it around shooting and now I can’t delete his sessions and some shots are counted wrong. Otherwise amazing!

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback. You can use Casual mode and your stats won’t be saved. That makes it easy to let someone else try the app without affecting your stats. Also, please ensure the net is not too loose. The ball should make contact with the net when going in. We recommend using a standard net or tightening the existing net if needed. Appreciate you taking the time to leave a review and glad you’re enjoying the app.

Ridiculous cost

How can they expect a family to pay over $600 per year for this? Why don't they offer family memberships like nearly every other sports and athletic app?? Avoid them until they fix it unless you only want one player to use it. We're returning ours.
