Features

01

No Camera, No Tripod

Measure your swing tempo by putting your iPhone in your front pocket. No need to set up equipment or have someone film you.

02

Instant Measurement

Take one practice swing and get your backswing-to-downswing ratio immediately. A single swing, one number.

03

See the Shape

Your tempo is drawn as one bar split in two. The length of each part is the real time it took. The seam is where you reach the top of your swing.

04

Stack Your Swings

Every saved swing becomes another bar in your log. When seams line up, your tempo is repeating. When they drift, you spot inconsistency at a glance.

05

Club Filtering

Keep separate stacks for driver, iron, wedge, and putter. See how your tempo changes with different clubs.

06

Target Setting

Set your own target tempo. A line on the result screen shows your goal alongside your measured swing.

07

Precision Sensing

The motion sensor reads 200 samples a second to detect three moments: start, top, and impact. Accuracy within ±5% for 96% of swings.

08

On-Device Only

All swings are saved on your iPhone. Nothing is sent to servers, no account needed, no internet required.

09

Confidence Indicator

Each swing shows a confidence score based on the sharpness of your swing and the stillness of your setup. Retake if needed.

10

Optional Tempo Sound

Play a click-track sound that matches your target ratio. Drill to a cadence in settings.
