Range Diary Golf Practice
Read full descriptionHide full description
Range Diary is the dead-simple practice diary for driving-range golfers. Most people hit a bucket and remember nothing. Range Diary gives every session a clear structure — borrowed from a working instructor's bilingual lesson notes — so you actually improve. THE 30-SECOND LOG • Date fills in automatically. • Tap your ball count (50 / 100 / 150 / 200 or your own number). • Tap the clubs you worked on. • Write one line on what you worked on, and rate the feel 1–5. TODAY'S FOCUS, NEXT TIME Each session ends with one focus line for next time. It surfaces automatically at the top of the app when you arrive at the range, so you always practice with a plan. SWING VIDEO ANALYZER Record a swing in the app or import one from your camera roll, then break it down like a coach: • Frame-accurate slow motion (down to 0.1x), frame-by-frame stepping, pinch to zoom and pan, and an A/B loop to replay the move. • A full telestration toolkit — freehand, straight lines, an angle tool that shows degrees, circles and rectangles — in five colours and three widths, with move-to-adjust, undo/redo, and a reference grid. • Your drawings pin to the exact frame and save with the session, so you can compare week to week. Share an annotated frame in a tap. Videos stay on your device — nothing is ever uploaded. ON-COURSE ROUNDS Take it to the course: log your score, putts, how it felt, and notes (by voice if you like). A light season summary tracks your rounds, average and best. PROGRESS — IS YOUR PRACTICE WORKING? (Premium) This is what a scorecard app or a swing app alone can't do: Range Diary connects your range practice to your scores. See your practice volume, feel, and scoring trends — and get plain-language insights like "in weeks you practiced 3+ times, you averaged 6 strokes better." Finally, proof your practice is paying off. GOALS & REMINDERS Set a weekly practice goal, watch your progress ring, and get a gentle reminder on the days you choose so the habit sticks. VOICE NOTES Tap the mic and talk — Range Diary turns your spoken notes into text right on your device (nothing is uploaded). Perfect for jotting a thought mid-round without stopping to type. STREAK & HISTORY A practice heat calendar shows your active days at a glance, with your balls and sessions for the month. DRILL LIBRARY Targeted drills tagged by the fault they fix — slice, early extension, topping, fat shots, and distance. BUILT FOR EVERYONE Defaults to a comfortable dark theme, with large and extra-large text sizes for easy reading at the range. FREE & PREMIUM Free forever: unlimited sessions, three saved videos, and drill previews. Premium unlocks unlimited videos, the full drill library, and iCloud sync across your devices. No accounts. No ads. No tracking. Your practice stays yours. PREMIUM (AUTO-RENEWABLE SUBSCRIPTION) • Monthly plan: ¥800 / month • Yearly plan: ¥6,000 / year • Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. • The subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. • Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends. • You can manage or cancel in the iOS Settings app under your Apple Account.
