Bring a compatible phone and a stable stand
Install FanEye from the App Store and grant Camera access. Grant Photos access only when you want to save a clip. Make sure your stand stays clear of players.
COURT-SIDE SETUP GUIDE
Set up one iPhone before the first rally.
A useful replay begins with a clear view. Check the position of the phone before relying on it during a game.
Free to start · Optional in-app subscriptions for more phones.
Prioritize one disputed area
Frame the baseline or sideline where disagreements commonly happen. Keep the line within the image instead of clipping it at the edge.
Check lighting and obstruction
Look for glare on the floor, dark patches and players blocking the view. Adjust the position before play. Zoom cannot recover information that was not captured clearly.
Agree who will operate the phone
Choose who taps Challenge and controls playback. Tap promptly after the point; the app retains recent footage, not an unlimited match recording.
Try one complete loop
Start, play a short rally, tap Challenge, inspect a few frames and return to live view. This tests your setup without assuming that every court or lighting condition will work equally well.
If one angle is not enough
You can add another recording phone using a Free online room, or use Pro for up to 6 phones. More cameras can provide alternatives, but do not guarantee a conclusive view.
Replay is a reference, not an automatic verdict.
FanEye does not automatically detect the shuttle landing or decide IN or OUT. Players or officials review the footage. Device, lighting and network conditions matter.
