User Reviews

Reviewers praise RacquetTune for tracking tension decay and serving as a useful reference, and some call it close to an industry standard for relative measurements. However, many reports cite inconsistent/incorrect absolute readings, reliability problems after updates, and a heavy reliance on correct string-factor calibration and database data. Support and UX concerns appear, making it a powerful but imperfect tool for stringing decisions.

Pros

Excellent for tracking tension loss over time with graphs and logs, helping plan restringing and monitor string wear
Readings can be relatively accurate and consistent enough to compare rackets and strings, serving as a practical reference
Useful for customizing rackets thanks to a database of strings and customizable string factors
Helpful instructions and an easy-to-read interface once set up, making it easy to use
Considered by many as a close to industry-standard tool for relative tension measurements

Cons

Absolute tension readings are often inconsistent or far from actual values, with large discrepancies between attempts
App reliability issues: measurements can stop, updates can break functionality, and support is reportedly lacking
User experience and setup can be non-intuitive; the app’s dependence on correct string factor and database data adds complexity
Need to calibrate string factor carefully for accuracy; online database can be hit-or-miss and misleads without personal calibration
Some users feel it’s not worth the price due to reliability issues and inconsistent results

Recent reviews

been using it for years. great that it has note functions. I can know: when tension drops, How well I strung the racket and I can rate the setup for the future. Especially good for a nerd like me that tries a lot of different setups
