FlashStep — Your Badminton Footwork Training Companion Core Features • 6-Point Footwork Training System Covering frontcourt, midcourt, and rearcourt, both forehand and backhand — all 6 key directions on the court. Random flash mode simulates real-game situations to improve your mobility and reaction speed. • Screen Flash for Split Step Before each direction cue, the screen flashes briefly, signaling you to prepare your split step. This simulates reading your opponent's shot and reacting instantly — building the habit of "split first, move second." • Arrows Across the Screen Direction arrows fly in from the screen edge and travel across the entire display. Clear visual guidance works perfectly in both portrait and landscape mode. • Adjustable Training Rhythm Customize the interval between cues (1 to 8 seconds). Progress from slow to fast, gradually increasing intensity. Tap anywhere to pause and adjust your pace.
