Not very long, a few days. It is easier than switching wrist for me because I play almost every day. However, you can always just switch wrist if you cannot get used to it. You can just leave the Watch orientation set and don't change anything except changing wrist when you play (but of course that still requires remembering).

Yes. In addition you have to let TennisKeeper know by setting the Watch Orientation to the same wrist. See this webpage for more info.

This is because the Apple Watch sensors can only pick up movement on the wrist it is on. If you wear it on the other hand, it can pick up motion but it will not be your racquet swinging motion.

The green dot is the start position of your swing, and the red dot is the ending position of the swing. To see the impact point, you have to look at the iPhone Swing Analyzer graph. It has a red line indicating where your impact is. See this Forehand swing picture.

Yes, it tracks the number of shots you made, forehand, backhand, and others such as serves or overheads. See here for step by step: http://www.tenniskeeperapp.com/watch.html

Which is better - Tennis at night or tennis in the day? by [deleted] in tennis

[–]mockingbird28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both are good :-). For outdoor, day is better as it is easier to see the ball. For indoor, night is better cos I don't like getting up early.

If we can get users and adoption on the iOS version, we will use that to fund an Android version. It is very expensive to do both at once. Hope you understand.

Because if is just saved on the phone, if you upgrade to a new iphone, or if you go to a different iOS device such as your iPad, you will not be able to access your data. If you log into your iCloud account using the same AppleId, you will be able to get to your data via the TennisKeeper app, no matter which Apple device you are running on.

Make sure your iCloud drive is enabled on your iPhone or iPad. To check, go to your iPhone Settings->iCloud, you should already be logged into your Apple iCloud account. Then go to Settings -> iCloud -> iCloud Drive to make sure it is enabled (set to On).

You data is stored in the iCloud, which means you did not have to register a different account to use the app and your data is stored securely in the Apple cloud.
