V1 Golf: Golf Swing Analyzer 12+

I use the app, mostly for reviewing my own swings, and not to look at the various model swings or drills or things like that. Recently videos on my phone couldn’t play because the control bar with the play button and the tools button were hidden down at the bottom of the screen and you couldn’t access them. I wrote to support, and the support person (JT) worked with me over a series of days suggesting that I try this and try that, and then he reported it to the developers and they had several things for me to try. Finally with an update, it started working again. I’m not used to such good support for an app.

Note: when I first wrote this review, I accidentally hit the wrong stars. I meant to leave a four star review not a one star review.

Hello!

Thank you for recognizing our team's effort! And thank you for working this out with us. Though this shows a 1-star review, we definitely value the actual feedback more. If there is anything we can be of help, we are always a chat away!

Happy golfing!

Like many, I’m a huge fan of the app before recent update. It does appear they’re working on it to make improvements. I filmed my swing today and was pleased to find it worked well, not clunky or choppy. Hopefully the whole app will eventually be back on par or even better than the prior version. The current interface workflow makes no sense to me. For example, in the “analyze” area, you have to tap a “tools” icon EVERY time you need a tool (for example trimming videos or drawing lines and shapes on swings) instead of having all tools easily accessible like before the update.
When clicking the video thumbnails, one is presented with beautiful hi res swing videos of tour players along with a speed control - which is great, but when analyzing your own swings and comparing it to the tour models, the models there are lo res and there is no speed control. It seems to me that the analyze area and hi res video gallery should be combined into one, since for many of us, the main purpose of the app is the ability to film our swings and then compare those swings to high quality tour swing examples.

Thank you for your feedback. As long as you have not uninstalled the app you have not lost your videos. Locally stored videos must be migrated to the new app. They will be copied to the new storage area and automatically uploaded to the cloud.

Model videos are all in 1920x1080 resolution

The new version has been glitchy, slow, and overall a cumbersome app. The editing and drawing functions not being on the screen is clunky and inefficient. There has been loss of functionality in no longer being able to email videos out to people as well. Overall, I am very disappointed in the new app and would gladly return to the old version if I could.

3.2.1 just came out. No improvement in what I mentioned above. As additional failure, the compare feature has a ‘sync’ that does not work because the model swings do not match up with the recorded swings in frame rate/duration. For example, Tony Finau’s model swing video is 16seconds long. For a swing that took less than 2 seconds in real time. This doesn’t sync swings at all for compare and is basically a useless feature unless comparing identical frame rate swings.
Also, in landscape view on an iPhone, the controls are too close to the bottom edge of the screen which causes accidentally swiping away from the app when trying to scrub. This new version requires a lot more beta testing by actual users before it is released! Bring the old version 2.x back until this one is up to scratch, PLEASE!

Hi RCK2, today we submitted version 3.2.1 to the App Store today. It contains significant performance improvements to the Analyzer as well as additional functionality like variable speed playback. Apple normally turns around submissions w/in 24 hours so you should see it in the App Store sometime tomorrow.
