Racketware is a sensor that you attach to the end of your squash racket.
Here’s the trailer for it:
I’ve made a few videos so far of me trying to learn the app. Here’s a playlist of the videos so far:
You can buy it / learn more on the Racketware website.

Hi,
I just bought one. I thought I had followed the setup instructions (charging (24 hrs), firmware update, BT pairing to iphone (6s plus) while connected to USB power source). However, once I disconnect from a power source, the sensor does not wake up no matter how many practice swings I take. I’ve reached out to support at Racketware, but have not heard back yet. Please, is there a step I am missing that you guys did to make your sensor work? Thanks.

I have been using the sensor for a couple of months now, and really enjoy it for solo hitting. There is a feature which enables you to focus on one of the 10 (I believe) variables and get audio feed back on your shot in comparison to various high level players. I like this feature the best as I am working on racquet head speed, and this automatic feedback on each shot is useful. Also, I find it makes time go by quite quickly so I actually am motivated to stay on court longer.

In the Practice mode, what shots can you practice? (I couldn’t find a picture of the drop down menu anywhere). From the pictures/reviews I found, it had options for drops, drives, long drives. What about volleys?
Also, how useful would this device be for analyzing solo drills?

It’s in Live Mode and the drop-down options are: drop, drive, two-wall boast, long length, short length, cross-court lob, return of serve, straight kill, volley kill, and volley drop. All for both forehand and backhand.
As for solo drills I think it probably depends on the drill. As long as you are repeating the same shot, the app should pick it up.

Very intriguing and interesting idea. I always thought that would be an excellent thing; I mean mostly all other sports have something that can help you track your performance and playing factors. Golf, baseball, tennis, badminton all these sports have some sort of individual performance tracking software, equipment, and applications. Squash as always is way behind because we do have a lot of enthusiastic players/followers of sport just not enough monetary rewards in this sports.
