Testing your Smartphone
When you install the App it may ask you to "Run Tests". At the end it will show an FPS number for reduced HD resolution and FullHD resolution. With 120 FPS it will not measure above 100 rps. With 240 FPS the full measurement range will be available. This test only checks if camera images arrive for a few seconds. The image quality and sustained performance need further real-world tests.
To test if the measurement is actually working you need to measure spin with it using a SPINSIGHT ball for several minutes. You can go to "Open Play" and look at the "Timeline" to see if most measurements arrive as expected. If it works well for you for several minutes, you can use it.
Please note that using HD resolution leads to a smaller measurement window and it might not cover the full table width. You can optimimize this by adjusting the tilt angle of the smartphone (tilt it up a bit higher, so it can see higher top-spin balls) and by changing the smartphone placement (lower or higher, maybe closer to the table).
After you tested your device please rate your device in the App with 1/2/3/4/5 stars to inform other users. Your rating will then be visible on this page: https://app.spinsight.com/android-measurement-device-ratings
