JumpControl

JumpControl helps officials review long jump and triple jump attempts with video. On iPhone 18 Pro, JumpControl records video in 4K at 120 frames per second. This device configuration meets the World Athletics requirements for resolution and frame rate for video-based take-off review under TR 29.5. JumpControl requires at least two separate devices for take-off review: one iPhone to record at the take-off board and another iPhone or iPad for the official to control recording and review the video. Devices connect directly, so no Wi-Fi network is required. Features: Record at 60, 120, or 240 frames per second. Available resolution depends on the device and selected frame rate. Position the camera accurately with the built-in level Use an optional guide line during review Set up additional recording devices and select them in turn for triple jump or parallel pits; they extend the basic two-device setup Save, favorite, and filter notable attempts Browse saved attempts grouped by recording date Transfer complete attempts between devices Review saved attempts in a dedicated iPad archive Show the archive on an external display, with or without the guide line Use the same app on separate devices for the camera and review roles Direct connection reliability depends on external conditions, including distance and nearby wireless interference, so uninterrupted operation cannot be guaranteed. JumpControl is free to download. Camera and archive features can be used without a paid controller license. Controller functionality is available through a 30-day in-app purchase. Transferring complete attempts between devices is a separate feature and is not the same as controller video export.
