FS Mevo Golf Reviews

by JocKnispel

Since you need FSMevoGolf to work properly in order to get the data, I’m giving this a thumbs down. FSMevoGolf closes down constantly during mid use (during a 15 minute stretch closed 7 times and could only get ONE reading), right now stay away from this till they get an app that works.

This worked flawlessly for me for a year. Ever since the latest update FSMevoGolf crashes within 30 seconds to 1 minute of viewing any data. Especially annoying when it crashes during the middle of a session and misses shots. Please fix.

Purchased a mevo and it never worked properly. Consistently reported distances on average 2 club lengths off, missed shots etc. worked with support for 2 weeks, and still the unit did not work properly. Asked to return device and company made me pay shipping and a restocking fee despite their garbage product! Tried to reach customer service repeatedly for an explanation but i was constantly ignored. Buyer beware.....

Unusable update as FSMevoGolf keeps crashing. Poor app support for MEVO since last year. No major update. Not even basic update to scale FSMevoGolf to larger iPhone screen size.

I am not sure why they are not investing in making FSMevoGolf better. It is a low end HTML app that is laggy and misses many opportunities to show data/history in a way users would want to look at. I really hope they make this a priority.

My mevo is very inaccurate already 2 clubs off. Reached out to customer service and they always come back with the same fixes with no resolution. Got it for Christmas and asked for a refund in January they told me I was past my return date. Very dissatisfied with customer service and product.

Worked super reliably at first but since Jan has been a total pain. Crashing randomly . Tried reinstalling app and no luck. Was thinking of getting Mevo plus but if their software support is non existent then maybe not.

FSMevoGolf has worked fine for me and the MEVO itself is a great product, but this review is about FSMevoGolf .

1) FSMevoGolf is really outdated; it looks like it was made 10 years ago. If I purchase a $500 product, it should have a premium app interface that clearly receives frequent software support and updates, even if it’s the “low-end” of the product line. FSMevoGolf is long overdue for a more modern look and more efficient usability.

2) It would be nice to customize club lofts. Not everyone hits the same lofted driver or even PW.

3) If there are 8 possible data points to display on-screen, I should have the option to display any number of those, not a maximum of 6.

I do enjoy using this launch monitor. For the money, the capability of the monitor has been great, but the software is subpar and I wish it would get more attention.

Pretty disappointed with FSMevoGolf . Seriously needs to be updated.

The Mevo+ is needed for the better app with the shot tracer it seems. Lateral information is not provided either (distance left/right or target line).

Any plans to update FSMevoGolf for Mevo?

by RonABryant

Device when connected seems to have reasonable numbers, but about 40% of shots get unrecorded because the device won’t stay connected. Don’t buy!

FSMevoGolf keeps crashing during my session and the carry distance seems to be off. I’m using indoor with all proper distance and lighting and it still doesn’t read shots often and they seem short. If they can’t get this fixed in next couple weeks I will be returning the unit.

Bought the base model Mevo. It worked for 2 sessions and since then, I have not been able to get it to connect, even though when I click on connect, a screen pops up saying I’m connected to the Mevo. However, in the upper right , it’s disconnected. How do you get it to connect? Feel I’ve wasted my money.

by Stevedave113

App does not feel as premium as it should with the entry point of $500.

FSMevoGolf works but makes me want to sell this and keep my rapsodo MLM

Rapsodo app is night and day better than this.

I was told there’s a new version 1.1.1.2 but it’s not available. I am getting prompted to Install firmware 1.8 but it’s already been installed. Hmmm

by Susjndejis

FSMevoGolf is great and it works well enough. They should add a combine feature such that we can use Skills with the regular Mevo.

by Golfolav

Looking at the latest images on you all store it does not reflect what I have on mine . How can I upgrade . ( I'm missing spin , ball speed )

by Zeeehow

I enjoy using mevo when I practice but there’s an issue where sometimes I accidentally close out from the session and I would have to start a new session. They need to add the ability to continue a session that’s been just closed. About the device itself obviously it won’t be as accurate as the expensive launch monitors but it’s still decent and good for the price.

by Ericandi

This review is more about the device itself but I will comment on FSMevoGolf as well. Amazing device for a reasonable price. It provides the key metrics that you need, but of course it doesn’t have every metric that the $10k to $15 launch monitors have. It’s accurate when set up correctly. I’ve only used it outdoors on a driving range so I can’t speak to how it performs indoors or when playing a round of golf. Unlike some competitors, the accuracy and performance are not negatively impacted by bright sunlight or lack of good lighting because it uses radar not high speed photos. FSMevoGolf is functional. Gets the job done, but the user interface and layout has a lot of room for improvement.

by Zulu0826

A brilliant device for measuring club head speed, how far you carry the ball and 6 other numbers. For the costs, it certainly is the best investment to help improve your game.

by BFabulous001

I’ve tried multiple times to connect the FlightScope Mevo+ to FSMevoGolf multiple times to no avail. For such an expensive unit, FSMevoGolf does not have a good user interface or troubleshooting process.

Every swing FSMevoGolf crashes. Every one. After I swing, FSMevoGolf tells me how far I hit the ball and then FSMevoGolf crashes and I’m at the home screen of my phone. Very frustrating.

FSMevoGolf looks like it was made 10 years ago.

Love the Mevo. I’ve used it for countless practice sessions over the last year.

In my opinion, FSMevoGolf could desperately use the following improvements:

1) Text to Speech Improvements - My only real issue is that the text to speech is overly wordy, and an entire sentence spoken every time I hit the ball bothers everyone on the range. I understand that I can turn this off, but the better solution would be to have “quiet mode” that only speaks a number. For example, instead of “Carry is two hundred thirty seven point three yards”; just “two hundred thirty seven”, or better yet, “Thirty-Seven”.

2) Fine Scrubbing - It is nearly impossible to scroll to the moment of impact on a slo-mo recording.

3) Compare Swing Video - I currently have to find my swings in my photo library, export them, and import them to a 3rd party app.

4) Tag/Comment on Swings - Would like to be able to easily find good/bad swings, and remember what I was trying to work on during the session.

5) Data Box Size - It would be better if I would increase or decrease the overall size of the combined boxes in relation to the camera zoom and or the number of data fields selected.

6) Swing Data Comparison - Ideally, I would be able to easily compare the numbers on a given club over time. Say I’m working on achieving a lower launch on my 6i, I would like to be able to quickly filter all 6i shots and see the average per session.

7) Swing anomaly Identification - If I hit 50 6 irons, it would be nice if FSMevoGolf could ask identify swings outside of a given standard deviation for certain characteristics, and automatically eliminate mishits from the data set.

Great unit for the price. I really like that you only have to place the t four feet behind the ball.

The Mevo is a great device. FSMevoGolf and description of how to set it up needs work. No problem with the outdoor settings. Measurements of the carry distance are very accurate. If you like to use the Mevo outdoors with a net you need to put the Mevo in indoor setting, an 8 feet distance from the net to ball as recommended by Flightscope and 4 feet from ball to Mevo will not work. FSMevoGolf will not record the shot and eventually crash. Different story if you increase the distance to 10 feet net to ball. Shots are recorded as they should. In summary: Needs some work but really promising.
