Your Apple Watch is the shot chart. Spot Mode maps every make and miss to the court in real time — no camera, no setup. Just shoot.
Make. Every. Shot. Count. Hot Hand is more than just a shot counter—it's your personal basketball data scientist. Designed for serious shooters, Hot Hand leverages the power of your Apple Watch to turn every practice session into actionable insights.
• NEW — Spot Mode: See exactly where every shot goes. Spot Mode maps your makes and misses to spots on the court and builds a live shot chart, using only your Apple Watch—no camera, no tripod, no setup.
• Effortless Tracking: Keep your focus on the rim. Wear your Apple Watch on your non-shooting hand and log your MADE and Missed with a simple tap. No complex setups, no distractions—just you and the basket.
• Advanced Motion Analysis: Hot Hand doesn't just count; it learns. By analyzing the motion trajectory of your successful shots, the app grades every session from A to F so you can read your form at a glance. Identify where your consistency wavers and which mechanics need tightening.
• Holistic Health Integration: Hot Hand tracks your heart rate and active energy (calories) during training, giving you a complete picture of your physical output alongside your shooting percentages.
• Long-term Growth & iCloud Sync: All your data is securely synced to iCloud, so you can store months of training history and visualize your shooting evolution over time.
Your best training partner is now on your wrist. Whether you're working on your mid-range pull-up or perfecting your deep three, Hot Hand provides the data you need to reach the next level.

Used a few of these shot trackers before, and this is the first one that goes beyond makes/misses. It logs wrist motion on every single rep and turns it into a form-consistency score. I can pull up a session from a month ago and literally see my release getting tighter. That kind of longitudinal data is rare in a $5/mo app.
Best basketball app with Watch.

Spot Mode is the real MVP

I do the same 5 spots every workout and now I’ve got an actual shot chart showing where I’m cold from. Didn’t expect a watch app to nail court positioning without me tapping anything extra — first shot calibrates and the rest just… works.
Fixed: Craft counts your shots again.
New sessions had stopped adding to your Craft. This update recounts your history, so it catches up on its own.
