Pickleball tracker for Apple Watch

Your Apple Watch detects and counts each hit as you play. After the session, your iPhone names each serve, drive and dink from your watch’s motion, and replays it in 3D. How well it names strokes varies from player to player, and you can correct any.

On the App Store. Free to download, with Treblew Pro inside.

A pickleball session in Treblew: 75 minutes, 399 hits detected, and the heart rate and energy Apple Watch measured

How it works

  1. Tell Treblew which wrist your watch is on and which hand you play with.
  2. Calibrate once on your Apple Watch: a few of each stroke, so Treblew learns how you play.
  3. Start a pickleball session on your watch and play. It detects each hit as you go.
  4. On iPhone, see your hits and every stroke named, each with a 3D replay.

Strokes Treblew names

A stroke Treblew isn’t sure of is left unnamed. On a stroke’s replay, Treblew asks if it named it right; answer No and choose the right stroke.

Every rally, as a clip

Hold your iPhone sideways with the court in view, and Treblew films the session and cuts a clip of every rally, found by the sound of its hits. Play a clip at quarter speed, save it to Photos or share it. The clips stay on your iPhone.

Questions

Can Apple Watch track pickleball?

With Treblew, yes. Your Apple Watch records the session’s time, heart rate and energy, and detects each hit from its motion, counted as you play.

Does Treblew tell a dink from a drive?

After the session, your iPhone names each stroke: serve, forehand drive, backhand drive or dink. The names are estimated from the watch’s motion, matched to calibration strokes you record once. How well it names strokes varies from player to player, and you can correct any of them.

Does it work if I play left-handed?

Yes. Tell Treblew which wrist your watch is on and which hand you play with, and the replay and the stroke names follow the wrist you wore.

Can Treblew film my rallies?

Yes, on iPhone. Hold it sideways with the court in view, and Treblew films the session and cuts a clip of every rally, found by the sound of its hits. The clips stay on your iPhone.

Is it free?

Recording a pickleball session on iPhone and Apple Watch is free: time, heart rate and energy. Stroke detection on Apple Watch and rally recording are part of Treblew Pro, and the Free plan includes one try of each in pickleball.
