I first introduced it in Houston, where it was quickly embraced across hitting, defense, baserunning, catching, and other training domains. Since joining the Cubs, we've brought it into our work again, and it continues to be a simple and effective way to deliver immediate visual feedback—a cornerstone of quality skill development.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Video Delay Instant Replay holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Video Delay Instant Replay has 538 ratings behind it against 51, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 51% of Video Delay Instant Replay's written reviews are positive against 53% of Dive Live's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Video Delay Instant Replay ships an update every 2 weeks, Dive Live every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
