PocketCaddie
The only no-video golf swing coach.
Now on the App Store
How it works
Pocket. Swing. Score.
No tripod, no camera, no setup ritual. Your iPhone’s motion sensors are the whole instrument — the phone rides in your front pocket and reads every swing.
Pocket your phone
Tap Start, slide your iPhone into your front pocket, and forget about it. No calibration, no aiming a lens, nothing to balance on a bench.
Swing normally
Hit your bucket like any other range session. The app detects each swing on its own — no taps between shots.
Get scored & coached
End the session and watch your Wrapped recap: Swing Score, tempo grade, power tier, hand speed, and one insight to carry to the next bucket.
Three layers of sensing — use what you have. The iPhone is the engine; Apple Watch and AirPods deepen the picture.
iPhone
Accelerometer + gyroscope detect every swing, grade tempo and rhythm, estimate power, and track session consistency. The core engine — no other device required.
Apple Watch
Wrist-side motion and heart rate: wrist action, kinetic sequencing, and how your body holds up across the session.
AirPods
Head-stability tracking — the quietest, most-overlooked fundamental in the swing. If your head moves, we’ll see it.
What you get
A full swing lab. Zero setup.
Six reasons this replaces the tripod — and the guesswork.
Swing Score
One number, 0–100, built from 16 measured skills — with your #1 opportunity called out first. It tells you which swings to study.
16 swing skills, Tour-benchmarked
Tempo, hand speed, kinetic sequence, wrist action, X-factor and more — every swing graded against Tour-pro benchmarks, not vibes.
Hip feedback
The only no-video swing app that reads your hip turn — rotation, sway, and sequencing, straight from the phone in your pocket.
AI Caddie
Ask anything. It knows your swing history and tells you what to work on next — and exactly why.
Session Wrapped
A swipe-through recap after every session: your money swing, your trends, and one coaching insight for next time.
No tripod. No video.
Everything runs on-device from motion sensors. Nothing to set up, nothing to record, nothing uploaded.
Inside the app
A caddie that actually knows you.
Personalized feedback, not generic tips.
Ask the AI Caddie anything. Every answer is grounded in your own measured swings — your tempo, your consistency, your session history.
- “What should I work on?”
- “How’s my tempo trending?”
- “Break down my last session.”
See your swing in 3D.
Every swing is rebuilt from sensor data — angles measured, not guessed. Watch your swing path on the plane and compare it against your own best.
Build up your range profile.
Customize your profile and let every bucket count. Each session ends in a story — swings, standout skills, and how far you’ve come since day one.

The skeptic question
No camera? How does it know?
Your phone, Watch, and AirPods each carry motion sensors sampling hundreds of times per second. PocketCaddie fuses them into one honest read on your swing — cross-checked across devices, filtered for false detections, processed entirely on-device.
Reviews
What golfers are saying.
Tried PocketCaddie on the range? Leave a review — it shows up right here.
A really useful tool. “I really like wrapped feature after a session.”
Best golfing app I’ve seen. “This is an awesome app - it gives great feedback with an incredibly smooth and interactive UI. I’ve tried several other golf apps with no success but felt like this really helped me hone in on my game. It’s affordable and worth it in my opinion!”
Incredibly Useful & EASY. “I can honestly say this is the coolest and easiest golf app I’ve used, with very unique and informative data. It allows for connectivity with an Apple Watch and Bluetooth Ear Buds (for better statistics) at the click of a button and all I have to do is put the phone in my pocket and swing. I always loathe setting my camera up or wanting to pay for a track man to see certain statistics, so Pocket Caddie is a lifesaver. AMAZING!”
Fixed my slice. “I had a tendency to always slice right. Pocket-caddie gave me the advice I needed to keep my club face closed. Between my AirPods, apple watch, and phone in pocket, all the bases of my swing movement were covered”
Best no video option. “The apple watch and air pods integration make this worth it and some.”
“the airpods and watch addition actually give real swing feedback. Will be recommending to friends!”
“This has to be one of the coolest and most unique apps I’ve used for golf. So many useful tips and a one of a kind product. Awesome!”
FAQ
Quick answers.
Do I need a tripod or camera?
No. That’s the whole point. PocketCaddie uses motion sensors, not video, so there’s nothing to set up. Pocket your phone, swing, done.
Does it work indoors?
Yes. The app works anywhere you can take a swing — at home, at a simulator, in a net, or on the range. No GPS or location signal required.
Do I need an Apple Watch?
No. The iPhone alone gives you a Swing Score, tempo grade, power tier, and hand speed. An Apple Watch and AirPods add depth like wrist action and head stability, but they’re optional.
Is there a free version?
Every download starts with a 30-day free trial of the full app — every feature unlocked. After the trial it’s $9.99/month or $89.99/year, cancel anytime in Settings.
Where do I put my phone?
Your front pants pocket works best. Keep it snug so the phone doesn’t shift mid-swing — that’s the most reliable position for the motion sensors.
Is my data private?
Yes. Swing sessions are processed on-device first, and we don’t share your data with advertisers. See the Privacy Policy for the full detail: Privacy Policy
What iPhone do I need?
Any iPhone running iOS 17 or later. The motion sensors are standard across modern iPhones — no special hardware needed.
