GoSwim Deckshots app for iPhone and iPad

This is a dedicated app for GoSwim subscriber coaches and swimmers. Its sole function is to enable those subscriber coaches and swimmers to share user-generated swimming videos with each other — safely, securely, and quickly. A subscription to the GoSwim platform is required for use.

The GoSwim Deckshots app allows coaches to give visual feedback to their swimmers in a safe, secure platform. The process is simple:
• Film the swimmer.
• Show the swimmer the video and review technique points with them.
• Select the video for upload.
• The app presents a list of your athletes. Click the swimmers name.
• The app presents a list of strokes (e.g., freestyle). Click the appropriate stroke and queue the video for upload.
Repeat the steps for additional swimmers.
• After practice, upload all videos of all swimmers filmed. Each swimmers videos are delivered to the appropriate swimmers device for immediate viewing.

The GoSwim Deckshots app is designed to help coaches use technology to communicate with and educate their swimmers — without taking up valuable pool time.

The app drastically reduces the hassle and cost of filming swimmers. Top-quality video can be captured quickly and inexpensively by using a smartphone inside a waterproof case attached to a telescoping pole.

The app can save hours and hours of desk time for the coach, while providing huge benefits to the swimmers. With the app, each video clip can be immediately tagged to the swimmer and stroke, eliminating the need for the coach to upload, search, and sort the videos after practice.

The app makes it easy to film multiple swimmers. The app holds everyone’s tagged videos in a queue until after practice — without requiring any cell data usage. After practice, simply connect to wifi and use the app to share the videos with the swimmers.

Because the app makes it easy to share videos, more videos will be shared, and swimmers will have more opportunities to learn from what they see.

Videos shared through the app are stored in a secure environment for private viewing by the athlete, and storage for recall at any time by the swimmer or coach.

Coach-swimmer meetings will take on new value with the instant recall of all the swimmers specific stroke videos. With long-term storage of videos, coach and swimmer can observe technique progression over time.

The GoSwim Deckshots app directly integrates with the GoSwim subscription-based website, which holds thousands of detailed, swimming technique videos. These videos feature some of the worlds greatest swimmers, performing skills and drills that teach you how to swim better, faster, and more efficiently.
