Hi PingSkills

Just want to share my idea on making PingSkills application on android or ios as there are a lot of people using android or ios right now

So it'll be easier for them to access the pingskills website and video

What do you think about it?

Hi Frendy,

It is an interesting idea.  You can also just save the link to the website on your phone or laptop which will gain you access quickly.

That's really a great idea. It will change the pingskills experience completely and make it awesome. Please try to make an application.

It is something we would like to do at some stage. What we have done at the moment is make the website mobile friendly.

I'd love to hear from anyone who primarily uses the website on their phone and get any feedback about how it works. Please let me know if you've got any feedback PingSkillers!

The mobile site is very good, however I can't view videos on the mobile site due to Android flash restrictions. A mobile app would be a much smoother experience. I would suggest you check out Lynda.com's mobile app as it is more convenient with a tablet at a training session than a laptop.

I would celebrate an app. The vault for example, working also offline would be amazing.

An offline vault sounds like a prime candidate, and you could reuse so much code - just add synching.

One pros of mobile app is the notification system. You create a post or write a comment then you are subscribed to notifications. Ideally this generates more engagement so more comments and more discussions. You don't have notification in a mobile browser instead. Email notifications are usually filtered and they don't speed up the process enough to create more engagement from followers.

More advanced features of the app might help people during training using sensors on the phone. This is probably hard to make in practice but it works well with golf. You can track movements with the camera to evaluate the mechanics of your swing and fix it.

Also my mate (he's better than me at table tennis) keeps on saying he could win a match against me using his phone as a bat. Sometime he actually plays using the phone so I suggested I could make an app for him that shows a moving bat (the sensors may understand how to properly move the 3D image) and also simulate the real noise when the touchscreen feels the pressure of the ball. Now this may be funny when you have no bat with you and you absolutely need to play table tennis, it's not funny at all if the screen gets broken after a FH loop.
