The only bowling app that sees your motion. Lane Caddie turns your Apple Watch into a bowling instrument. The moment you release, it detects the shot and captures the motion behind it — your tempo, rev, posting, and follow-through — and shows how each compares to your own best. You just tap what fell. No phone on the lane. AUTO SHOT DETECTION — A FIRST IN BOWLING Worn on your bowling hand, your Apple Watch detects every shot from wrist motion (CoreMotion + on-device machine learning). No buttons to start, no fumbling between frames. SEE THE MOTION BEHIND EVERY SHOT After each ball, see your tempo, rev, posting stillness, and follow-through — not as raw numbers, but as how this shot compares to your average, with green/yellow/red consistency dots. Stay green and you're repeating it; drift red and you'll know before it costs you a frame. FEEL YOUR TEMPO — ON YOUR WRIST A bowling tempo metronome pulses your target pace through the Taptic Engine as you step into the approach. No other app does this. SCORE THE WHOLE NIGHT ON YOUR WATCH Multi-game, USBC-style scoring, frame by frame — phone stays in your bag. One tap for a strike or spare, a couple for a leave. KNOW YOUR ARSENAL A built-in ball catalog — 60 balls across 11 brands with 100+ colorways and the specs that matter (coverstock, core, RG, differential). Track which ball you threw on every shot and how each performs. YOUR GAME, ON YOUR iPHONE Review every session afterward: average score, strike and spare rates, trends over time, and a home-screen stats widget. Share a clean score card to Instagram, TikTok, or Messages in a tap. BOWLING COUNTS AS A WORKOUT Every session is a real Apple Watch workout — heart rate, calories, and Activity-ring credit.
