About this app

"Every bowler should have Tenpin Toolkit on every device they own. It’s an incredible information source and provides so many things to help you learn, get better and challenge yourself."

Tim Mack

"A brilliant app with tools to help you develop and learn different skills. The observation trainer is a great way to train your eyes to start watching your ball go down the lane"

Verity Crawley
PWBA Professional & SCAD Team Coach

"As UAE National Head Coach, I use Tenpin Toolkit to explain to my players how to play the lanes and the 3D view really helps them see the proper line. The Observation Trainer helps them learn to follow their ball through the pins and start to understand why things happen."

Mika Koivuniemi

"I use Tenpin Toolkit at PBA level and as a coach. The lane play portion is fantastic, with the ability to show getting the ball right quickly which is crucial on the PBA Tour. The observation trainer is really good for helping players watch the ball go off the deck and determining dominant eye to help alignment. One of the best $9.99 I have ever spent and the most realistic app in the world for what I am doing."

Jim Callahan
PBA Tour Manager at Storm Bowling

A collection of useful tools for tenpin bowlers and coaches including:

- Angles & Targeting -
Adjust your targets to show a shot on the lane diagram and work out the exact path the ball should take from the start of the approach.

- Axis Tilt & Rotation -
Take a picture or video of your ball with a PAP (Positive Axis Point) marker and position it beneath a guide to get an approximate measurement of your axis tilt and rotation.

- Ball Speed & RPM -
Calculate the speed the ball travels down the lane. Use a video for greater accuracy and slow the video down to measure rev rate.

- Observation Trainer -
Watch bowling balls travel down a simulated lane to test and improve your ability to observe ball motion.

- Pattern Library -
Instant access to details & diagrams of hundreds of oil patterns, or enter your own custom patterns. Load any pattern into Angles & Targeting to plot your shot directly over it and plan how you'll attack the lanes.

- Bowling Ball Arsenal -
Searchable library of over 1,500 balls and a way to manage your own arsenal. Organise balls into separate bags and keep track of information such as surface, layout, important dates and more. When looking for something new, use the Ball Library to find exactly what you want, with filters for brand, cover & core types, RG, Diff and more.

- Notes -
Keep track of information about your game and equipment. Create general notes, or add notes from within most of the other tools, such as for oil patterns, your bowling balls, Speed & RPM readings, Observation Trainer scores and more.

- Score Calculator -
A calculator for bowling scoring and a great way for beginners to learn how the scoring system works.

- Spare Names -
Just for fun, tap on the pins to see the nicknames of common spares.

It sounds like it would be a cool idea, but this thing is not easy to use at all. I have gotten each feature to work 1 time after about 40 attempts. Now I cant get anything to work right. If your hoping to get a lot of useful data just bring a friend or get a coach if you value your time and sanity. The only things that works easily is the ball speed calculation and rev rate but you don't need a app for that so yeah. I wouldn't recommend this really. Cool in theory no so much in practice.

Hi There. Really sorry to hear you had problems using the app. Your feedback definitely isn't consistent with the positive feedback I normally get so I'd love to discuss further and work out why it's not working for you. Would really appreciate it if you could contact me via [email protected] so I can look into the problems you had! Thanks!

I love this app so far. I'm a new bowler and was looking for something to elevate my game while I'm not on the lanes. This app is perfect and the 10$ is a great upgrade. Only suggestion I have is to add some more features to the score calculator. If you gave the pin locations and some stats for the premium version that would be awesome. Instead I have to use two apps for now.

Hi Cooper! Thanks for the feedback & glad you like it! I might add Score Tracking in future, but it's pretty much a whole new app. I've focused on the tools that more directly help peoples' game & don't already exist, rather than compete with apps already out there. Feel free to contact [email protected] if you want to discuss further!

Exceptional customer service! The cost for upgrading is very reasonable if you want to do so (and I recommend doing so) and the app has really great features, but the biggest deal to me was the customer service I received. I had a major issue with something breaking in the app and emailed support. I received a response within a day and once I got the first response, it was consistent communication and work to fix the problem!! I am very happy! Top notch customer service!!!
