Sparrow - Golf for Negative User Reviews

Sound is gone1st day and already the sound quit working??.Version: 1.5.5

Very good conceptNeeds work in my opinion. Based on trial I will not be paying for membership which I’m bummed about. Difficult to setup by yourself but more importantly the app never analyzed my swing. Continued to crash after a dozen or so attempts. I will come back to see if it improves and look forward to using in the future. Would’ve been nice to use on this snowy day in Massachusetts.Version: 1.0.2

Wont send me code to log inIt won’t send me the code, it looks like a great app but can’t tell because I cant get in! Hopefully this will be fixed.Version: 1.1.2

Good Insights - No ConsistencyThe app was giving me good tips that I could see immediate results, but this comes with the downsides as well. The tips the app gives are great, unfortunately they might not apply to your swing in that particular instance. I tested this by swinging normally and then swinging like a clown. My normal swing on average rated an 8.7 while the “clown” swing averaged around 7.4 . The problem is, my normal swing is very consistent (5 index, been playing 10+ years), but the app would score the same swing a 10 and a 5 on different occasions. Some of the “clown” swings were scored higher than my normal swing. What I noticed is the AI would compare your posture, shaft, and club head to pros, but it would not line up the timing correctly each swing. I would be at the top of my backswing, and the app is comparing me to a pro who is 1/3 of the way up their backswing resulting in a very low scoring swing. This timing issue results in fairly inconsistent results. That being said, this app still does provide good insights and tips for your game it’s just up to you to know when and how to apply them..Version: 1.4.2

Was great, then not compatible with IPhone 14 proHad this and was really enjoying it. I used a tripod and got great feedback and made some beifical changes. Then got my iPhone 14 pro max and you can’t use the tripod feature cause it thinks the phone is older than iPhone 11. Seems like it should be a easy fix in the future to get the compatibility back, but I can’t use it till then..Version: 1.5.6

Doesn’t recognize new phone typesWhen I try to select Tripod under the menu for “how will you be recording” I get the message “ iPhone 11 or newer required: Auto Swing-Capture requires a device with more processing power. Sorry, please use handheld with this phone.” However, I’m using an iPhone 14 Pro Max..Version: 1.5.6

OwnerPlease remove me.Version: 1.5.8

Tripod / solo feature doesn’t work.I’d like a refund!.Version: 1.4.2

Updates?Nice app for the current features but This app is four years old and still can’t record a face on angle? For $100 a year, that’s pretty steep for only one angle. Thank goodness we get a free trial..Version: 1.4.3

Work on your softwareBuggy AI software. 18birdies is better. Not useful unless you are just starting to play and have absolutely no clue.Version: 1.5.3

Not updated for 14 proTells me I need an iPhone newer than iPhone 11 to use. I am on a 14 Pro. They haven’t updated their app for this, useless to try and use it..Version: 1.5.5

Doesn’t work with new iPhonesChanged to iphone14 and app no longer works. Their customer support never responded to my inquiries.Version: 1.5.6

Poor functionalityI would like a refund on my $100 purchase. This app is useless if you want to work on your golf swing solo as the tripod feature doesn’t allow the phone to rotate sideways or use the front facing camera (says it’s coming soon). The only way I can use this is if I have someone Stand there and hold the phone the entire time..Version: 1.4.2

Does not accommodate the personal aspect of golf instruction.I’ve been teaching golf for more than 10 years. I thought I could use this app for guidance when it comes to delivering instruction. For someone that is working with people with different body styles, limitations, and disabilities I found this app to be completely useless. This app gives tips on very common mechanical flaws, but fails to accommodate preferences and or limitations..Version: 1.3.0

Great concept but early days (does not always work)I was able to only capture one swing. Like another that commented, the app keeps crashing when I press Analyze Swing. Also, with iPhone 8 (iOS 15) it only allows for capturing with back camera. Would be a great feature if you could use front facing camera. For the swing I did capture, it gave me great feedback and I was impressed. Once the bugs are fixed, I am looking forward to using and would have no problem paying for a subscription. I’ll adjust my review in the future when issues are fixed..Version: 1.0.2

Never WorksDownloaded this app after seeing lots of ads, and positive reviews on social media. Downloaded the app, and took it to a range. The app allowed me to record my swing as advertised. However, every time I hit the analyze swing button the app crashes, and I’ve yet to get one swing analyzed..Version: 1.0.2

I need helpCan someone please tell me why it won’t analyze my swing. I only had time to post one swing but it isn’t analyzing it just keeps showing the video of my swing over and over with no tips on it. Please someone tell me why..Version: 1.4.3

How to add no starsI can’t even use this app. When opened, it requests my phone number or email address. No way I will provide my phone number, and after entering my email address and selecting the arrow to proceed nothing happens. I can’t even find a way to get support..Version: 1.2.1

Doesn’t allow pre-recorded videosThe app should let you use pre-recorded videos of your swing rather than having to film one….Version: 1.5.6

Basically stealing money from youThe app worked fine for a bit but I upgraded my phone to an iPhone 14 pro max and the app can’t be used in tripod mode any longer. I’ve paid for the subscription and it won’t even let me use it in the only manner that makes sense. I would not recommend the app for anyone who has a new phone, it’s basically useless.Version: 1.5.6

Love the concept, but needs improvement and better instructionsFrom the first few swings it captured, I was able to assess and quickly adjust my swing to the point I was on plane and making center-of-the-face contact consistently. That said, the app probably captured 20% of my swings, continuously crashed, and there are no ‘guidelines’ or help section on how to optimize capturing swings. There seems to be a lot of potential with this app, but I don’t think it’s worth full price for it…yet. I really hope they continue to update and improve the functionality..Version: 1.4.3

Scene detection is wildly off.I love the concept of this, but the classification model appears to be off. The “advice” that the app (esp when comparing me vs pro) is comparing my “setup” when I’ve already started my backswing compared to when the pro is in ready position. Also, there needs to be a follow through piece of the evaluation..Version: 1.5.5

Great idea, poor executionI’m shocked this app was released in the shape it’s in. Every golfer knows this is a great idea… who wouldn’t want custom swing advice by just taking a video? But it lacks execution and was obviously pushed to production too quickly. The tech is far behind where it should be. I was constantly having joints mis-identified and it struggled to automatically pick up my clubhead. Sometimes, it would evaluate my form as if I were in X point in my swing when I was really in Y point. There was no way I was going to pay for a subscription after the flawed “analysis” of a few of my swings. I hope this app comes around. There are others on the market I’m going to check out instead..Version: 1.3.0

Shows promise…if it workedSaw this app when I searched for swing analyzers. The concept looks impressive but I, too, am having issues with it analyzing my swing. App always crashes..Version: 1.0.2

Great in theorySo smart, if it works, which it doesn’t. Tried with the iPhone 11 Pro and the latest iPad, both with memory to spare. Crashes, doesn’t detect swing, crashes. So disruptive to a range session I’m canceling my subscription. Wish it worked..Version: 1.3.0

Tripod option causes crashI have noticed a lot of people saying that it crashes over and over again. I found this to be true if I set it to tripod. If I set it to handheld even when I have my phone on the tripod it opens the camera and records a swing. This might be helpful to know if you are trying to use a tripod and it is constantly crashing..Version: 1.3.0

Don’t be fooled by the other commentsI see a lot of other reviews raving about this app, don’t believe it, the CEO pays people to leave good reviews..Version: 1.4.3

Works okayIssue I am having is after I record and edit where my swing starts to finish then it doesn’t register correctly in the video and tips part.Version: 1.5.5
