Pocket Bullpen: pitch speed from your phone's camera
Turn your Android phone into a pitch speed tracker. Set it on a tripod beside the field, record, and every pitch's speed comes up as soon as you stop. No radar gun to buy, nothing to wear.
Everything from one phone
Pocket Bullpen films in slow motion, 240 frames a second on phones that support it. It finds the ball in every frame and works out its speed from its path and the distance to the pitch line. Every pitch shows its own ± margin.
Practice
- A slow-motion clip, the speed and an estimated release speed for every pitch
- Sessions grouped for you, with top and average speeds
- A speed-by-session chart and a Fastest list
- Solo mode counts you down and beeps when it's time to throw
Games
- Tap Ball, Strike, Foul or In play. The count, batters and innings keep themselves
- Time out pauses the clock and the recording
- Pitch Smart guidelines for ages 7 to 22, with rest days after the game
- A summary of every game: pitches, strike percentage, speeds by inning
Batting
- Record your hitter's at-bats in games or practice
- The count, walks, strikeouts, hits and outs

Pocket Bullpen Remote
A free companion app for a second phone. Leave the recording phone on its tripod and run everything from the dugout or the stands over Bluetooth: start and stop recording, see each pitch's speed as soon as it's measured, keep the count and the game, and tap where a hit landed.
Pair once with a 4-digit code; later games reconnect by themselves. Works with any edition of Pocket Bullpen, including the free trial.
Try it free, then unlock once
No subscriptions. Each edition is a one-time purchase through Google Play, and it comes back when you reinstall on the same Google account.
Free trial
Two full recording sessions, practice or game, with every feature. Nothing you record is ever locked.
Player One-time
Unlimited recording for up to five of your own players. Players shared with you don't count toward the five.

Prices are shown in the app and on Google Play in your local currency.
Private by design
Players, recordings and stats live only on your phone. There's no Pocket Bullpen account or server, and the app collects nothing. A clip or a player's stats leave your phone only when you choose to share them. Read the privacy policy.
