Hello fellow creators!
I’m excited to introduce Padelio, an iOS app designed specifically for padel players, fairly popular among indie makers :). The idea for Padelio had been in my mind for some time, especially since padel workouts can’t be recorded on the Apple Watch, as Apple doesn’t include padel in their workout options. I saw a need for a tool that could fill this gap and provide players with detailed analysis of their game.
Padelio tracks your padel workouts using the advanced sensors of the Apple Watch and employs a Machine Learning model, built from scratch, to identify different stroke types. It distinguishes between backhand and forehand for each stroke type and records the acceleration of each stroke. This feature is particularly interesting for comparing the speed of viboras and smashes with your friends.
The social aspect of Padelio, featuring customizable stickers, came to me after noticing how people love to share their workout summaries for various sports on social media, such as running or cycling. However, there was no equivalent for padel. With Padelio, you can now share your padel achievements with your friends and the wider community in a fun and engaging way.
I can’t wait for you all to try Padelio and hear your feedback!
Padelio’s features for monitoring both game performance and physical health are impressive.
Hello, @kildos!!
Congratulations on this innovative Apple Watch feature! Does it provide personalized tips based on the analysis of each stroke type? This sounds like a fantastic way to get professional-level insights and share your progress with friends!
congrats on the new apple watch feature for padel! Now you might be able to track every swing and score like a pro. Who knew tech could make padel so high-tech and fun?
loving the idea that an apple watch might help monitor your padel game. It could make tracking performance a lot easier. Definitely want to check it out!
This new feature might help you track padel stats with an Apple Watch. If it helps boost your game, I’m all in.
🥳 Congrats on the launch! I’m so excited to use it. Your dedication is truly remarkable. Here’s to your continued success and growth! 🚀✨ @kildos
It was so embarrassing that Padel didn't exist on Apple Watch.
Thanks Marcos, this was definitely a gap needed to fill.
I wish you the best. Vamooosss! 💪🏼
Amazing idea Marcos!!! Can’t wait to try it on court 🎾
The best of luck with it!!
@kildos Just signed up 💪🏻 I have the exact same problem as you. I used to track my games with my Apple Watch, but with tennis as an activity. Now I will use Padelio for that. Amazing UI and UX as well.
Congrats on the launch 🚀
Hey Marcos,
How does Padelio's machine learning model adapt to different player styles and levels?
Are there any plans to expand the app's functionality beyond stroke analysis?
Congrats on the launch!
The map feature showing where you’ve played padel is a cool touch! It’s always fun to look back and see where your padel journey has taken you.
Wow! I’ve been wanting to find an app like Padelio for a long time! For padel players it’s definitely a game changer. Let’s keep up the good work Marcos 😊
Hey @kildos, this sounds amazing! 🤩 Love how you're addressing a real gap for us padel players. The machine learning aspect to track strokes is genius, and those customizable stickers are such a fun touch for social sharing! Can’t wait to give it a spin and see my progress. Keep up the great work—you’re really making a difference in our game!
