This feature requires internet connection!
With this feature, every full swing you make while using the 4DMotion Watch App is automatically mapped on your golf course, letting you review your entire round. If there's a shot you didn’t like, you can find it on the map and get a detailed analysis. This can be helpful for spotting any patterns in shots that often give you trouble.
Based on this data, Blanka can give you helpful insights and create personalized training programs.
Trace your golf swings on the Map
When you first set up the app, you’ll be asked to allow location access. If you allow precise location, the app can show your exact location on the map. Without precise location access, the app won’t be able to pinpoint your swings.
How to Enable Location Access on iOS
If you skipped the location setup earlier, follow these steps to allow it now:
- Open Settings on your iPhone.
- Go to Privacy & Security.
- Select Location Services.
- Find 4DMotion in the list and tap on it.
- Choose a location setting:
- Never: You won’t see your location on the map.
- Ask Next Time: You’ll get a prompt for location access when you open the app next.
- While Using the App: Your location will be recorded whenever you use the app.
- Turn on Precise Location to get an exact location.
Note: This feature may be less accurate if you're using it indoors for training.
Mark Ball functionality
The 3D Smart Shirt needs to reach a speed threshold to recognize swings. The movement required for putting is below this threshold. The app calculates your swing distance retroactively, between your current swing location and the previous one. However, since putting is not recognized as a swing by the app, you need to manually mark where your golf ball landed right before you start putting to get the distance of your last full swing.
Mark the end point of your last full swing
On the 4DMotion Apple Watch app:
- Under the judgment selector (thumb up/thumb down), press the blue Mark Ball button.
In the 4DMotion Mobile app:
- Open the last full swing on the History screen.
- Press the blue Mark Ball button.
How to fix if you pressed the Mark Ball button after the wrong swing
In the 4DMotion Apple Watch app:
- Press the delete button next to the Mark Ball button.
- Alternatively, press the Mark Ball button after the correct swing.
In the 4DMotion Mobile app:
- Select the correct swing on the History screen.
- Open the Map tab.
- Press the Mark ball button in the bottom right corner.
- Select the location, and press Save.
Missing Mark Ball Button
When you are out on the golf course, you can track your swings and mark your last swing before you begin putting with the Mark Ball button.
The app recognizes when you make practice swings (=a rehearsal swing, which is the swing the golfer wants to copy when he actually hits the ball). When you make several swings in the same location, the Mark Ball button automatically deactivates.
Functionalities on the Map Tab
- Press the Earth icon to switch between satellite and standard views.
- Practice swings are marked with a yellow pin, actual swings are marked with orange pin
- You can zoom in and out with a pinching motion.
