Price, ratings, monetisation and update history for both apps, side by side — with what reviewers say about each.
Prevent
This app pairs with a special mouthguard to monitor head impacts in real-time. It provides detailed data on acceleration, direction, and load for each impact, helping teams and parents assess player safety and identify athletes needing evaluation.
- Real-time head impact data
- Linear and rotational acceleration tracking
- Impact direction and location analysis
- Impact Load measurement
- Player and team data views
- Live alerts for high-magnitude impacts

The Prevent mobile app pairs with the Prevent Biometrics impact monitor mouthguard. The Prevent system provides near real-time, accurate head impact data to help teams make the right call about player safety. The Prevent app is designed for sideline monitoring of head impacts for the whole team, and is typically used by athletic trainers, coaches and athlete parents. For every head impact, see five key impact characteristics: * Linear acceleration of the head * Rotational acceleration of the head * Direction of the impact * Location on the head of the impact * Impact Load (a composite measure factoring impact count and magnitude) View head impact data on a player or team basis, and over the timeframe of a day, week or sports season. Introduce actionable, objective data into the process of identifying athletes needing sideline evaluation. The Prevent app provides live alerts of high magnitude head impacts. See athletes with high head impact exposure and instruct them on safer playing technique. Stand for smart play. The Prevent system helps you understand head impacts across the team and organization and be a leader in improving sports safety, performance and growing the game. This app requires at least one Prevent Impact Monitor Mouthguard to operate. Learn more at preventbiometrics.com or contact sales@preventbiometrics.com.

My Jump Lab is the most widely used app for measuring sports performance in a validated way, with more than 400,000 downloads in over 140 countries. It is used daily by coaches, elite athletes, physiotherapists, and researchers all over the world. Unlike generic fitness apps, My Jump Lab is scientifically validated, with accuracy confirmed in more than 20 peer-reviewed international scientific studies. It allows you to assess performance with precision comparable to expensive laboratory equipment, using only your iPhone or iPad. My Jump Lab uses the advanced sensors and camera of your iPhone or iPad to measure performance in a simple, reliable, and validated way, without the need for any additional hardware. For example, vertical jumps and barbell velocity can be measured in real time using artificial intelligence, directly from video captured with your camera. With My Jump Lab, you can assess more than 30 performance tests, covering jumping, strength, sprinting, change of direction, mobility, wellness, force-time analysis, and more — all within a single, integrated platform. TESTS INCLUDED IN THE SUBSCRIPTION: ◉ Jumping: CMJ, SJ, CMJ free arms, DJ, optimal Force-Velocity Profile, RSI-mod, horizontal jump, single leg asymmetry and 10-5 repeated jump tests. ◉ Velocity-based training (VBT): measurement of mean concentric velocity, load-velocity profiling, 1RM estimation, velocity loss and barbell trajectory tracking. ◉ Running and Sprinting: horizontal force-velocity profile, contact/flight times, duty factor, leg stiffness, leg asymmetry, pronation/supination, contralateral pelvic drop, linear sprint time with splits, curved sprint, horizontal deceleration, Sprint Mechanics Assessment Score (S-MAS), 5-0-5, 5+5, V-Cut and Illinois COD tests. ◉ Mobility: range of motion for ankle dorsiflexion, neck flexion/extension, hip flexion and internal rotation, shoulder flexion and internal rotation. ◉ Wellness: sleep, fatigue, stress and soreness questionnaires. ◉ Hamstrings strength: Nordic hamstring breakpoint angle and torque calculation. ◉ Force-time curves: real-time raw force time curves using the accelerometer. ◉ Motion capture: real-time knee valgus and squat depth measurement using markerless motion capture. FEATURES: ▶ Import videos recorded by your athlete or patient to analyze their performance. Ideal for remote testing. ▶ Multi-user. My Jump Lab allows you to create as many users as you want. ▶ iCloud sync: share your data between your devices. ▶ History. Save as many tests as you want for each user to analyze their evolution.
