Where MotionEdge differs.
- MotionEdge grades the swing for you on the device, rather than leaving the judging to you or an instructor.
- The AI Coach (Pro) is available whenever you practice, not only when a lesson is booked.
- MotionEdge brings in TrackMan data (Pro) from session files, report links or a live connection, and shows each shot beside the swing that produced it.
- MotionEdge runs natively on Mac as well as iPhone and iPad, so you can review swings on a large screen.
What MotionEdge does not do:
- It runs on Apple devices only: iPhone, iPad and Mac, on iOS, iPadOS and macOS 26 or later.
- TrackMan is the only launch monitor it brings in today.
- Video cannot measure pressure or ground forces.
- It is not a replacement for a great teacher.
Questions golfers ask.
What is a good alternative to V1 Golf?
If you want each swing graded automatically rather than drawn on, look at a grading analyzer such as MotionEdge: posture, hand path and the club are graded on your device for free. If you want lessons from a human instructor inside the app, V1 Golf is built for that.

On the US App Store, V1 Golf+ is $9.99/mo or $79.99/yr, and MotionEdge Pro is $9.99/mo or $79.99/yr, both checked October 19, 2026. MotionEdge's Swing Review checks are free without Pro.
What is free in MotionEdge?
Capture, drawing tools, side-by-side comparison and the Swing Review checks (Posture Check, Shaft Check and Hand Path) are free. MotionEdge Pro adds the AI Coach, TrackMan data and iCloud sync for $9.99/mo or $79.99/yr after a 7-day trial.
