Yes, the tennis tracker detects all types of swings including forehands, backhands, serves, and volleys. The motion detection algorithms are designed to recognize the characteristic movements of tennis strokes.
Swingli is specifically optimized as a tennis tracker. While it may detect swings in other racket sports like badminton or squash, the algorithms are calibrated for tennis-specific movements, so accuracy may vary for other sports.
While our tennis tracker is highly accurate, no system is perfect. If you notice missed swings, try ensuring your Apple Watch is securely fastened to your wrist. Very light practice swings or shadow swings might not always be detected. If you consistently experience issues, contact our support team.
The tennis tracker is optimized for battery efficiency. A typical one-hour tennis session uses approximately 15-20% of your Apple Watch battery, similar to other fitness tracking apps. For longer sessions, you may want to ensure your watch is fully charged beforehand.
Swingli works with Apple Watch Series 3 and later models. The app requires watchOS 7 or later. Older Apple Watch models may not have the necessary sensors for optimal tennis tracking performance.
For best results with the tennis tracker, wear your Apple Watch securely on your racket hand wrist. The watch should be snug but comfortable. This positioning ensures optimal motion detection for your swings.
The tennis tracker provides comprehensive statistics including: total swing count, swing speed (average and maximum), session duration, calories burned, heart rate data (if available), footwork/activity metrics, and historical progress tracking over time.
Yes! All your tennis sessions are saved in the iPhone app. You can browse your complete history, view statistics from previous sessions, and compare your performance over time. This helps you track your improvement and identify trends.
Yes, Swingli integrates with Apple HealthKit. Your tennis sessions are automatically logged as workouts in the Health app, and you can view your tennis activity alongside other fitness data. The tennis tracker also uses HealthKit data (like heart rate) when available.

The tennis tracker collects motion sensor data from your Apple Watch during tennis sessions, including swing detection, speed measurements, and activity levels. If you grant permission, it also accesses health data like heart rate. All data remains on your device.
Yes, you have full control over your data. You can delete individual sessions or all your data at any time through the app settings. Since all data is stored locally, deleting it from the app removes it completely.

If problems persist, contact support.
