Crashes on my iPhone

This app works fine on my iPad but crashes on my iPhone. Hope the problem fixed at the next update.

Needs to be updated

The Developer has abandoned this App. No updates in over a year. Crashes constantly. I liked it before.

Update:
I deleted and reinstalled. Now working again. My data intact. Tested my freshly strung Astrox88D w Ultimax at 28lbs - it measured at 27.8lb 👍🏻. Would still like to see an update. I like the App.

I wonder if those getting poor measurement results are perhaps not testing correctly .. too much ambient noise .. not striking the tested racket string bed with another racket / not your palm ie ??

Just ridiculous. My rackets were just restrung in2weeks.

It’s a toy, not a tool

An amusing toy to goof around at courts if you were bored. It’s not a real tool to measure anything useful. You’re better off pressing strings with your thumbs to gauge string tension than using this app.
