ThrowLab

Features
Read full description

ThrowLab measures your disc's speed, tilt, and launch angle, plus throw distance with no GPS drift, for every disc in your bag. No hardware, no sensors. Just your iPhone. Record or upload a slow-motion throw and ThrowLab measures its early flight frame by frame. Compare each throw with your recent results, track trends by disc, and see what's working. Start with 5 free uses, shared between video analyses and distance measurements. ThrowLab Pro unlocks unlimited access. FLIGHT ANALYSIS Record in slow-mo inside the app or upload a slow-motion video from Photos. • Estimated speed in mph or km/h • Disc tilt in degrees • Launch angle in degrees • Comparison with your recent throws using the same disc and throw style • Forehand, backhand, right-handed, and left-handed throws • Flight chart and a scrub-through of the analyzed flight DISTANCE TRACKING Measure the straight-line distance from your throwing position to where your disc finished, skips and rolls included, with no GPS drift. • Feet and meters • Estimated elevation change • Local wind estimates from Apple Weather when available • Average and farthest distances by disc TRENDS AND MILESTONES Chart speed, disc tilt, launch angle, and distance across your recent throws, filtered by disc and throw style. Tap any point to see its reading. Milestones show your farthest and fastest throws for each disc. Share full-page images of both. PRACTICE SESSIONS AND YOUR BAG Every throw is saved to a practice session you can filter by location and sort by distance or date. Delete any throw or session and your averages and records update. Build your bag from a searchable catalog of discs, with molds, plastics, and flight ratings filled in. Compare up to four discs on one flight chart, and adjust arm power and throw style to see how each one flies. PRIVACY AND ACCURACY Throw videos are processed on your iPhone. Distance tracking uses camera and location access; its camera frames aren't saved or uploaded. All readings are estimates and describe early flight, not the exact instant of release. Camera placement, lighting, motion blur, and video quality affect results, so use consistent camera placement when comparing throws. Disc comparison paths use flight ratings, not recordings of your throws. Throw safely and stay aware of your surroundings. THROWLAB PRO After 5 free uses, continuing requires ThrowLab Pro: $4.99 monthly or $39.99 yearly (about $3.33/month) for unlimited video analyses and distance measurements. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel in your Apple Account settings. Privacy Policy: https://throwlabapp.com/privacy/ Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
