ShotIQ Learn/📱 Launch Monitors & Sims
Square Golf
Square Golf packs camera-based ball measurement into one of the smallest, most affordable units in the category, aimed at golfers building a first simulator or wanting honest launch data without the premium price. It measures the ball directly at launch and estimates club figures from it.
What it measures
- Ball speed
- Launch angle & direction
- Spin rate & spin axis
- Carry & total
- Apex
- Club speed & smash (derived)
Club-data honesty: Ball-first measurement; club delivery beyond speed isn't directly measured. ShotIQ's capability gating means you'll never see fabricated face/path analysis — curve reads come from spin axis and side carry.
How to export your data
- Open the Square Golf app and find the session in your history
- Open the session detail / shot list
- Use the Export or Share option to save the shot data (CSV)
- Upload to ShotIQ via Know Your Game → Add a session
Formats ShotIQ accepts from this source: CSV export, or screenshots of the session screen (a common path for Square users — ShotIQ's multi-club screenshot reader was hardened on real Square Golf challenge screens). Exact menu names move between app versions — look for Share or Export on the session detail view. And if a file won't come out, ShotIQ also reads screenshots of session screens and PDF reports, so no session is stranded.
What ShotIQ does with it
- Square sessions — including multi-club skills challenges — import correctly club-by-club; ShotIQ's import intelligence (USIE) refuses to mash different clubs into one fake dispersion
- Screenshot upload reads the app's session screens when you don't have the file
- Budget hardware, full analysis: bag, gapping, dispersion, coaching and caddie all run on Square data
Frequently asked questions
Does ShotIQ work with Square Golf?
Yes — upload the app's CSV export or screenshots of the session screen. ShotIQ auto-detects Square Golf data, and its import engine correctly separates multi-club sessions (like skills challenges) into per-club data instead of one meaningless blob.
How do I export data from the Square Golf app?
Open the session in the app's history and use the Export/Share option on the shot list to save a CSV. If your session is on screen and you just want it captured, screenshots work too.
Is a camera-based budget unit accurate enough to improve with?
For the numbers it measures directly — ball speed, launch, spin — yes, and patterns matter more than absolutes for improvement. ShotIQ leans on exactly those directly-measured numbers and never invents the club data the hardware doesn't capture.
