PitchGuessr v1.0 is the initial App Store release — a pitch prediction and scouting companion for MLB The Show on iPhone and iPad. Here's everything that shipped in the first version.
- Initial App Store launch — available for iPhone and iPad (iOS 17+)
- Live prediction heatmap with 25-zone tracking across the strike zone and surrounding areas (9 strike zones + 16 ball zones)
- Standard Model — filters predictions by exact count and handedness matchup for precise, count-specific intelligence
- Matchup Model — uses all pitches for the current handedness combination, ignoring count — ideal early in a game before count data accumulates
- Confidence badge (Very Low → Very High) based on logged pitch count — know when to trust the heatmap
- Pitch sequence overlay — color-coded by at-bat, showing the full sequence history at a glance
- Full-screen zone mode with pinch-to-resize for easier mid-game use
- In-Zone / Out-Zone percentage tracking per pitch type
- Bayesian smoothing — prevents extreme predictions from small samples for stable early-game heatmaps (Free)
- Raw mode — exact unsmoothed percentages for experienced players who understand small-sample variance Pro
- 9 at-bats per game on Free tier — full unlimited tracking for the entire lineup Pro
- Opponent profiles persist across sessions — build a scouting report over multiple games
- No account, no server, 100% on-device storage via SwiftData — your data never leaves your phone
- iPhone and iPad support, iOS 17+
What's Free vs. Pro
PitchGuessr is free to start — no account required, no paywall on the core prediction engine. The free tier covers heatmap tracking, Matchup Model, Standard Model, confidence indicators, Bayesian smoothing, and opponent profile persistence. The 9 at-bat limit per game applies on Free.
Pro ($4.99/month or $39.99/year) removes the at-bat cap so you can track the full lineup through as many innings as you need. It also unlocks Raw mode for unsmoothed exact percentages. Future Pro additions — weighted recent model, analytics dashboard, opponent notes, iCloud sync — ship in v1.1.
What's Next
v1.1 is in active development. The roadmap includes iCloud sync (Pro), a weighted recent model that weighs your opponent's most recent pitches more heavily, advanced pitch editing, and an analytics dashboard. Follow the blog for updates as features ship.
