Golf Swing Camera helps players and coaches record, review, and share golf swings on iPhone and iPad. Set up your phone, step into view, and swing when ready. The app watches for swing motion during a continuous practice session, automatically captures each swing, trims the clip, saves it to your library, and opens it for review. Keep practicing without walking back to the camera after every shot. MANUAL RECORDING FOR COACHES Choose Manual on the camera screen to start and stop recording yourself. Film a player, drill, or demonstration and save the full video without automatic swing trimming. Automatic recording remains the default. Set Manual as your default recording mode in Settings if you mainly use the app for lessons. REVIEW EVERY DETAIL Watch swings in slow motion at 0.25x, 0.5x, or full speed. Step through frames, loop key sections, scrub precisely, add swing-position markers, draw lines and angles, and use body-point overlays and suggested checkpoints to study your movement. COMPARE SWINGS SIDE BY SIDE Choose two swings from a session or directly from review. Play them together with synchronized slow motion, pause on matching positions, and scrub both clips precisely to spot changes in setup, sequencing, and impact. CREATE A COACH REVIEW Record a narrated review with synchronized playback, pauses, and timed drawings. Voice processing uses the iPhone's built-in microphone for clear narration, and the finished review can be shared with a student, coach, or friend. BUILT FOR PRACTICE • Automatic swing capture or manual start and stop • Recording up to 240 fps on supported devices • Adaptive frame rates when device conditions require it • Front and rear camera support • Configurable pre-roll and post-roll • Local swing library organized by practice session • Multi-select for comparing or deleting clips • Import swing videos from Photos • Share original, annotated, or Coach Review clips • Optional iCloud library sync over Wi-Fi or cellular PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No account is required.
