Customization is terrible: Team sport

Stupid to set up, impossible to try to map when you have a normal name. God help me trying to add my son to this swing tracker! Setup should be a lot easier. Update: Subscribe to save my data?! No thanks for bringing it back.

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • Poor guidance

Effective training device

I recently bought a SwingTracker for my daughter and I really like it. While I didn't know a subscription existed, it was very reasonable and the metrics were extremely valuable. Now she can make the corrections her swing coach tells her and she can really see the difference. Customer service was very accommodating with any questions we had and noticed a couple of straps after the first one wore out. Great product and value.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Almost never

Very disappointed. Not Recommended

Failed to download app. Try it on two different phones and also on two different models of IPADS / Tablets. The announcement should also mention that an annual or monthly subscription is REQUIRED to use the app. The ad is only for the tool and the trial version of the app (if you can download it!) From the description I was very excited as it was exactly what I was looking for. Received once. AS said very disappointed. The APP subscription fee is another deterrent. I would not recommend this…

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • No

Facilitates swing analysis.

I have a limited knowledge base about turn mechanics. This tool helped quantify certain metrics, which in turn helped diagnose issues with my daughter's swing. Also, my daughter enjoys hearing the bat speed announcements when using this device. There's a slight learning curve, but it's easy enough to understand. Diamond Kinetics also has good guides to help you with this. This is where most kids swing the bat too hard. This is a great way to prove to other parents and trainers that the big bat…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Lots of stuff

No improvement instructions and you can't view past sessions

I bought this hoping to improve my son's results. While it appears to follow the path of the bat, the app offers no guidance on what counts as a good swing or how to get better. Also, you can't view past beat episodes for analysis. If you spend an hour tracking swings and stop using the app for a period of time, you will be prevented from viewing your swing history. You can view "past" sessions only by paying a monthly fee. So unless you're willing to pay for a device AND pay a monthly fee…

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Slightly torn

That's not Zepp. The sensor holder is weak!

Update: The green sensor holders came loose within a month and then a week later. They're pretty flimsy and you should expect to buy 5 packs of Diamond Kinetics in a month, especially if you use your gaming bat for your dates (take off and put on obviously isn't good for them). The problem is the subscription. a service you can use if you have more than one child and want to see their basic swing information. They literally block you from seeing the swing. Kind of sucks, the Zepp baseball is…

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • No power

I love this product. I wanted to put 5. I read it.

I really like this product and would like to rate it a 5. However, there were problems. My dad and I run a baseball/softball school and we have about 100-120 kids who attend weekly. We use this product along with other products for testing, tracking and goal setting for our athletes. This product is great for tracking launch speed, racquet speed, arm speed, time in zone, run distance and some other great metrics. It's also easy to use with multiple players and can be quickly switched from one…

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Big and chunky
