Film your padel matches and buzz your best points right from the court, with a simple gesture of your racket — no accessory needed. Instantly find your highlights/buzz and the full history of all your matches. Games with friends, training sessions or tournaments: PadelBuzz is with you on every court to film, buzz and relive your best points. FILM YOUR MATCHES Attach your iPhone behind the court glass and record your match. Nothing else to set up: just your iPhone. BUZZ THE BEST MOMENTS After a great point, simply press your racket against your iPhone's camera to create a buzz — no need to aim, one gesture is enough. A confirmation flash lets you know it's saved. Since the match is filmed continuously, PadelBuzz automatically goes back and creates a 20, 30 or 40-second video highlight, depending on the length set in the settings. No more scrolling through long videos. AUTOMATIC HIGHLIGHTS Every buzz automatically becomes a shareable video highlight. Send your best points to Instagram, WhatsApp, Messages, TikTok, AirDrop and many more, in seconds. PLAY ANYWHERE Film at your usual club, on the go, on holiday or at a tournament. PadelBuzz works with your own iPhone and follows you to every court. IMPROVE MATCH AFTER MATCH Find the complete history of your highlights and your matches. Relive your best points, analyze your game and track your progress week after week, month after month. APPLE WATCH OPTIONAL No watch is required: pressing your racket against the camera is enough to buzz. If you have an Apple Watch, you can also buzz straight from your wrist and track your stats in the app, via Apple Health: heart rate, calories burned, distance and step count, match after match. PADELBUZZ PREMIUM SUBSCRIPTION PadelBuzz is free to download. To film and buzz your matches, an auto-renewable subscription is required: 2-week free trial, then a monthly or annual plan (prices shown in the app). Perfect for all padel players, from casual to competitive, who want to relive their best moments and improve match after match. Your best points deserve more than a memory. — Terms of Use: https://padelbuzz.app/legal/terms-of-service.html Privacy Policy: https://padelbuzz.app/legal/privacy-policy.html
