Half of the features that I was excited about using are not available on the Android version. It's really not worth the price, and I will be looking into returning it.

Paying extra to access features on an already purchased piece of hardware is scammy. No other way to put it. Removing data that you acquired while paying for the subscription, is also scammy.

So far this is a very helpful tool in helping identify what we need to work on. Blast team it would be nice if the blast games like home run derby would work on the android app.
