Your swing, read like a coach reads it. PureGolf.ai turns a single phone video into a precise breakdown of your golf swing — plane, tempo, sequence, posture and rotation — then builds the practice plan that fixes what it finds. THE SWING SCAN Record or upload one clip. In seconds you get a swing score, the fault costing you the most strokes, and a frame-by-frame replay with your body tracked through every position. The analysis runs on your iPhone, so your swing stays on your device. A PLAN, NOT A VERDICT Every scan ends in something to work on. Drills are matched to your actual fault and your actual goals, and your plan adapts as your swing changes. ON THE COURSE Golf GPS with accurate yardages, a rangefinder, course play and a scorecard — so the work you put in at the range follows you to the first tee. TRACK WHAT MATTERS A full handicap tracker with hole-by-hole or quick scoring, round history, and your index as it moves. Club distances, shot speeds, and progress charts that show whether practice is working. PLAY YOUR FRIENDS Send a swing battle, compare scans head to head, and keep a streak going. Train smarter. Play better. Improve faster. Subscription details: PureGolf.ai Premium is available as an auto-renewable subscription (monthly or annual).

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: PureGolf+ at freemium against SwingStudio's subscription. PureGolf+ also leads on ads (none vs shown). SwingStudio's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.4). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PureGolf+ sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month and SwingStudio sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

SwingStudio holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 44 and 31 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 81% of PureGolf+'s written reviews are positive against 75% of SwingStudio's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

PureGolf+ ships an update every 4 days, SwingStudio weekly. Both last shipped on November 5, 2026.
