Trace is the all-in-one soccer game video system. The Trace Teams iOS app is used by your team’s Trace equipment manager to control the TraceCam, update team rosters, start and stop games, and manage game uploads. Parents use the Trace Teams iOS app to capture even more angles and closeups of their player. Just select “Record MultiCam” and hit record. Your iPhone video will be saved to your camera roll and stitched to TraceCam footage to deliver epic highlights. Looking for your game footage? No app needed. It will be emailed or texted to you after each game. Recording games and editing film can be complicated, time-consuming, and expensive. Trace captures your game footage and delivers each player's highlights directly to their inboxes after each game. Players, parents, and coaches can create playlists to rewatch games and plays, easily share highlights, and keep track of progress throughout the season

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Trace Teams at none against ShotTracker's 1. Trace Teams also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 15 months) and ratings volume (4.4K vs 1). ShotTracker's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
