What’s New Version 6.1
Just some minor updates, including support for the latest iOS.
Description
How Fast Is Your Break? Break Speed Powered By Predator can tell you!
To use the app, set your phone on the rail and tap the screen. Now you're ready to break. Tap the screen once again after your break and the app will display your Break Speed speed.
Break Speed is more than 10x the accuracy of a radar gun and has become the standard for break shot speed measurements, privately and professionally. With such high precision, you can use Break Speed to provide that feedback you need to improve your breaks. Break harder and more consistently with Break Speed.
Don't worry about others breaking around you or other pool hall noise. Even shouting players won't fool our Break Recognition technology.
Find out why professional pool players are using and recommending Break Speed to others.
Our collaboration with Predator has been very effective. It's been great to work with a team that understands the science of billiards. The Predator R&D team has been testing the application along side their own speed measurement equipment and the Iron Willie robot, following a number of testing sessions, the Predator R&D team found the application so accurate that a partnership in pool science began.
"The application is really spot on. During my many testing sessions with the Predator Team there was very little deviation between the Predator testing equipment and the application," said Predator Pro Mike Dechaine.
If you're a serious player, and you don't have Break Speed Powered By Predator, what are you waiting for?

Build 850419210v6.0.72022-06-24 22:53:56

* A minor visual glitch in the history view when there are fewer than two breaks in the history
* A crash bug in the audio recording code
Build 845823890v6.0.62021-12-09 18:37:41

(That's it. We didn't say it would be a long list.)
Build 837084089v6.0.32020-07-30 19:56:25
Fixed a crash on startup for devices running iOS 11.
Build 836397377v6.0.22020-06-13 15:29:58
Fixed a couple bugs in how the keyboard is handled when setting custom distance.
Build 835946480v6.0.12020-05-14 08:35:52
Put a few bugs out of their misery.
Build 835585454v6.02020-04-18 23:21:24
This is a maintenance update to meet the latest Apple requirements.
Build 829885737v5.5.22019-01-09 21:04:45
Fixed a bug that would populate empty history with test data. This would only happen if your history was empty. This update will not alter your existing history data. If you have this test data, you can either delete them individually or get back to an empty state by clicking the "Delete all" button (three times to confirm) in the history view.
Build 829869076v5.5.12019-01-08 18:10:53
Resolved an issue in the history view where the rolling average sometimes goes wonky.
Build 828687310v5.5.02018-09-23 23:21:36
* Added support for 2nd ball break (look for the 8-ball rack icon)
* Added support for racking with the center ball on the spot (look for the 9-ball rack icon.)
Forget to set one or both before the break? That's OK, you can change them after you've captured a break and your speed will be re-calculated automatically.
Shoot well!
Build 828587873v5.0.22018-09-14 15:57:44

* Compare results against a rolling average to measure consistency
* Rolling average, min and max speeds
* All-time average, min and max speeds
* Delete individual breaks or all history
*** IMPORTANT ***
As the new history feature has been completely redesigned from the ground up, it is not compatible with the old version. Don't fret - the old history only kept the most recent 10 breaks - the new history will store hundreds!

* Support for iOS 8 (also raised minimum iOS version to 7.0.)
* Native support for iPhone 6 devices.
* You no longer need to set your system of measurement (MPH, KPH, etc.) Break Speed will start with a default setting appropriate for your locale. To use a different system of measurement or units, simply swipe across the displayed speed and it will rotate through available choices.
* Never miss a break again! Break Speed will automatically fallback to the alternate recognizer (a less strict listening method) if it cannot find a break shot. An alert icon is presented to inform you when this happens.
* Facebook and Twitter support now uses the accounts registered with your iPhone.
* New language: Chinese
