User Reviews

Users praise Like My Drill for iPhone/iPad remote control and a customizable drills library, but report frequent crashes, unreliable Apple Watch support, and UI/UX problems after updates. Registration and email verification issues, plus a limited set of pre-made drills, further hamper onboarding. Core features are strong, but stability and onboarding would significantly improve the experience.
Pros
  • Remote control of the ball machine from iPhone/iPad with drill customization.
  • Drills library with customizable drills and an easy setup method (1-2-3).
  • Works on iPhone and iPad, with cross-device usability.
  • Overall usefulness and versatility as a training tool.
Cons
  • Frequent crashes and stability problems, including when changing drills or using watch-related features.
  • Apple Watch app is broken or nonfunctional; watch integration is unreliable.
  • UI/UX issues: broken UI after iOS/watchOS updates and blank/hidden text in controls.
  • Registration and email verification failures; emails not received and sign-up flow broken.
  • Limited pre-made drills library; drills can be generic and hard to create.

It is a ok

If you have multiple ball machines in a vicinity, there is no way to know chic one to pick. If you then pick the wrong one, there is no easy way to pick the right one. As a tech founder, I’m pretty tech savvy so this was pretty bad.

App doesn’t let you control direction. UI broken with the newest iOS. It’s unusable.
