Making progress in sport is hard. Sometimes we need a second pair of eyes to tell what aspects to focus on. But do you always have a couch or experienced friend with you? Maybe your videographer is always available? In fact, if you simply look at your technique in slow motion you may discover a lot. What if I told you that you could record each your training session in slow motion automatically with no effort and then analyze and share the results right away? You can literally see your progress in real time. This is what AutoCapture SlowMo app is created for. Just put your phone on tripod and show your performance in front of it.
