🏠
Home

Your season at a glance

RallyEdge Home screen

Stats strip

The four cards at the top track your live season stats — sessions logged, win/loss record, total court time, and active goals. They update automatically every time you log a session.

Upcoming match banner

If you have a scheduled match in your Journal, it appears as a banner on Home. Tap it to view details.

Latest coach lesson

Your most recent coaching tips appear on Home so they're always front of mind before you head to the court.

Watch & Learn

A curated strip of short coaching videos from YouTube — all under 4 minutes. Tap any video to watch.

📔
Journal

Log every session

RallyEdge Journal screen

Three session types

Tap the + button to log a Match, Lesson, or Practice. Your Journal shows Upcoming and Past Sessions in two collapsible sections. Use the filter pills — All, Match, Lesson, Practice — to narrow the list.

Log a Match

Record your opponent, score, surface, format (singles or doubles), result, and notes on what worked and what was challenging. You can link opponents directly to pre-existing Scout profiles. Schedule upcoming matches in advance and convert them to played after the fact.

Tip: Create a Scout profile for an opponent before logging a match so you can link them directly.

Log a Lesson

Record your coach's name, skills worked on, coaching tips (one per line), rating, and notes. Coaching tips feed directly into your AI Pep Talk — the more specific, the better.

Tip: Log coaching tips exactly as your coach said them. The AI uses them when generating your pre-match pep talk.
🔍
Scout

Know your opponents

RallyEdge Scout screen

Build your opponent directory

Tap + to add an opponent. Enter their name, club, level, dominant hand, and select their strengths and weaknesses from the tag lists. Use the search bar to find anyone quickly across name, club, or notes.

Add scouting notes

Use the Notes field for anything beyond the tags — their tendencies at net, how they respond to pace, how they play under pressure. The more detail you add, the better your AI Game Plan will be.

Link opponents to matches

When logging a match, search for your opponent by name to link them to their Scout profile. Linked matches build your head-to-head record automatically.

Tip: A Scout record must exist before you can link it to an opponent in a match. Reverse linking is coming in a later release.
Tip: Specific scouting notes produce specific, actionable game plans. Vague notes produce vague plans.
🎯
Goals

Improve with intention

RallyEdge Goals screen

Create a goal

Tap + to add a new goal. Give it a title, choose a category (Technique, Strategy, Mental, or Fitness), write a description of what you're working on, and set your starting progress.

Tip: Be specific in your description. "Improve my serve" produces a generic AI tip. "My second serve breaks down under pressure — I double fault at the worst moments" produces a concrete drill.

Track your progress

Goals live in three collapsible sections — Active, Paused, and Achieved. Update your progress percentage anytime. Link goals to Lesson and Practice sessions to keep your improvement connected to your actual court time.

🎒
Gear

Your equipment locker

RallyEdge My Gear screen

Add your gear

Tap + to add a racket, shoes, or accessory. Each type has its own relevant fields — rackets include string tension, grip size, and role (Main or Backup). Shoes include size, color, and fit notes.

Star your main racket

Mark your primary racket as Main to keep it at the top of your gear list. You can have multiple rackets and toggle their role anytime.

Track purchase dates

Add a purchase date to each item so you always know when your strings were last changed or when it's time to replace your shoes.

🤖
AI Features

Personalized coaching, powered by your game

RallyEdge AI Pep Talk

AI Pep Talk

Tap "Get My Pep Talk" on the Home screen before your next match. RallyEdge generates a personalized pre-match message built around your recent sessions, active goals, coach's tips, and upcoming opponent — all in the tone you set in your Profile.

If you have a pump-up song set, it plays while your pep talk appears. Star any pep talk to save it. View your full history under "See All Pep Talks."

To get the best pep talk: Keep your Journal current, log your coach's tips after every lesson, and schedule your upcoming match before you generate.

When you create a new goal, RallyEdge generates a 2-sentence coaching tip — a specific drill and a cue for applying it under match pressure. Find it on the goal's detail screen. Refresh it anytime.
