Badminton Footwork Trainer helps athletes train their footwork for the singles event. The app announces a series of random numbers which instruct the athlete to move to the corresponding corners of the court. This kind of randomized footwork exercise helps athletes to develop a perfectly balanced "ready position" (known as the "split step"). The speed and number of corners are configurable. The app can also be used as a general-purpose, customizable random number generator.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

My Jump Lab holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: My Jump Lab has 257 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 69% of Badminton Footwork Trainer's written reviews are positive against 59% of My Jump Lab's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Badminton Footwork Trainer ships an update every 7 months, My Jump Lab every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 11, 2026 respectively.
