Rapsodo Baseball

Yes, the firmware update is kludgy as all heck, but I managed to do it, somehow. But once it started measuring things…well, not great. My kid has never thrown harder than 62 using a Pocket Radar. This thing says he can pump curveballs up to 86 mph. Guessing the Pocket Radar is more accurate (my kid is 12)! This is with the Pro 2.0. The hitting metrics seemed off from time to time as well, but not nearly as bad. And yes, everything was measured right and calibrated. Rapsodo really needs to address this.

Upgraded from Pitching 2.0 to Pro 2.0 and the device was not ready to be launched. I’ve been in contact with Rapsodo for two weeks (they’ve been helpful), but the device doesn’t work. Started with not having the right account and had to transfer to “Pro”. No way to do that online, had to have them do it for me. You’d think there’d be a place online to get a “Pro” plan. Then the device wouldn’t connect to the app. It would claim the serial number didn’t match the device I was scanning despite them being perfect matches on my account and the device, so I couldn’t connect to the device. Next, they’ve pushed multiple app updates attempting to get the firmware to update properly on the app, but nothing they’ve done can get the firmware update to transfer to the device correctly. Just a “something went wrong, try again later message” and it’s been like that for days. You’d think for the thousands of dollars invested, the company would’ve tested their product thoroughly for the launch, so the coaches that trust their product can properly use it for reliable player development. Now I have to put a portion of my income on hold because a produce I use is unreliable. Hopefully they get this fixed so I don’t own a $5,000 paper weight
