Every Feature in My Padel Point App, Explained

Getting started

Thirty seconds of setup before your first match.

Padel Point on the App Store, iPhone
App Store listing

1. Install on iPhone

Download Padel Point free from the App Store. This is the foundation โ€” match history, tournaments, strategy board and racket tracking all live here, and it's what your watch syncs back to.

Download on the App Store โ†’

Watch app auto-install

2. Install on Apple Watch

No separate download needed โ€” once Padel Point is on your iPhone, open the Apple Watch app and it installs the companion app to your wrist automatically. From then on, the two stay in sync in both directions: start a match on your watch and it appears live on your phone, or the other way around.

If your watch isn't connected to your iPhone or the network is slow, the automatic install can take a while. In that case, open the App Store app directly on your Apple Watch, search "Padel Point," and install it from there instead.

AppGallery, Watch GT / Ultimate / D2

3. Install on Huawei Watch โ€” Smart series

Covers the Watch GT Series (GT 4, GT 5, GT 6, GT Runner 2) and the Premium & Health Series (Watch Ultimate 1, Watch D2). Due to a software limitation on Huawei's side, there's no direct download link โ€” open AppGallery directly on your watch, search "Padel Point," and tap Install. It's ready to score with in seconds, no phone-side pairing app required.

โŒš
AppGallery, Watch Fit series

4. Install on Huawei Watch โ€” Lite series

Covers the Watch Fit Series (Fit 3, Fit 4, Fit 5) โ€” the lighter, fitness-focused line, including the Watch FIT 5 Series featured by Huawei. Same install path applies: there's no direct download link due to that same software limitation โ€” open AppGallery on the watch, search "Padel Point," tap Install.

Don't see your exact model listed? Open AppGallery on your Huawei device to check current availability โ€” I'm continuously expanding supported watches. Either way, whether you're on Apple Watch or Huawei Watch, keep it updated to the latest available firmware for the smoothest experience.

Permissions

The first time you open Padel Point on your watch, it'll ask for permission to access your health data โ€” to read it during the match and save it into your match record on your phone and watch afterward. Allowing this lets you enjoy the app exactly as intended. Denying it means I won't be able to read your heart rate or energy, or save them to your match history.

  • Health data โ€” I read your heart rate, active energy and distance during a match so I can show you effort, not just score. I never write anything back to Health.
  • Not enabled? If Health access isn't enabled on your watch at first launch, your iPhone detects it and shows a warning screen that walks you through enabling it, so your health data is recorded during games.
  • Notifications โ€” used for match reminders and sync confirmations. Entirely optional.

Didn't allow Health access at first launch?

You can turn it on at any time. On your iPhone, go to:

Settings โ†’ Privacy & Security โ†’ Health โ†’ Padel Point โ†’ Change Access โ†’ Enable all of them

Padel Point is available in 25 languages and switches automatically to match your device โ€” see Settings if you'd like to change it manually.
Padel Point Setup Required Screen โ€” Onboarding, Apple Watch
"Setup Required" on watch

Finish onboarding on iPhone first

One important step before your first match: launch Padel Point on your iPhone and complete the short onboarding there first. If you open the watch app before that's done, you'll see a "Setup Required" screen on your watch until onboarding on iPhone is finished.

Already finished onboarding and still stuck on that screen? On your iPhone, open Settings and tap Unlock Apple Watch.

Tap Start a Match, then pick a format โ€” each one asks a few quick configuration questions before you play.

Tap Go and you're ready to play.

Padel Point Serving Team โ€” Apple Watch

Choose who serves first

Once you tap Go, the first screen asks who's serving. If you already know, tap the team directly โ€” Opponent or Your Team. Not sure? Long-press the screen and I'll randomize it for you.

Track who's serving โ€” left or right

After the first team is set, I track the serving player throughout the match. Depending on which team is serving, I'll ask whether it's the left or right player โ€” tap to choose (from your side if it's your team, or from your point of view if it's the opponent).

Serve indicator โ€” the ball icon

Throughout the match, a small ball icon on the score screen shows who is serving right now: which team, and which player on that team (left or right). One glance at your watch is enough to know who should be serving the next point, with no need to ask anyone.

It updates on its own as the game goes on, and you can correct it any time โ€” see "Fix the server mid-match" below.

Game types & rules

Pick the format before you start, and choose exactly how deuce plays out.

Standard Match

Best-of-three sets, traditional padel scoring.

Super Tie-Break

A single deciding set played to 10, for a quicker match.

Training

Track a session without the pressure of a competitive result.

Custom Game

Set your own rules when the standard formats don't fit.

โŒš Apple Watch only โ€” Huawei Watch coming soon

Deuce variants

At 40-40, choose how the point plays out.

Golden Point

At 40-40, one single point decides the game โ€” no advantage. The receiving team chooses which player receives the serve.

Silver Point

Deuce gets one extra chance. The first time you reach 40-40, advantage is played as usual. If the game comes back to 40-40 a second time, one single golden point decides it.

Star Point (FIP 2026)

Official FIP rule for all tournaments since 1 January 2026. Advantage is played at the first two deuces; if the game reaches 40-40 a third time, one golden point decides it. A longer fight than Silver Point, but never endless.

Unlimited Deuce

Traditional advantage scoring, with no cap โ€” play it out exactly as advantage/deuce dictates.

Once you've tagged the players you play with, Padel Point builds your Padel Network from the Matches tab. At the top you see how many different players you've met, and how many of them you've played together with or against.

  • Filter and sort โ€” switch between All, Together and Against, and reorder the list.

It's built from the names you add after your games, so the more matches you tag, the better it gets.

  • Track up to 3 rackets and switch between them.
  • See how many matches you've played with each one.

AI Swing Detection

Your Huawei Watch recognises your shots as you play, live during the match and in a summary afterwards.

โŒš Huawei Watch only, for now

How to turn it on

AI Swing Detection is enabled only after you grant Padel Point permission to use the watch's Workout service. When the permission prompt appears, allow it, and the feature starts working in your next match.

Which Huawei watches support it

It works today on:

  • Huawei Watch GT7 and GT7 Pro
  • Huawei Watch D3

More watches will be supported as they receive the OS update that includes the Workout service. The Watch FIT 5 and FIT 5 Pro will receive that update soon.

Live during the match, and a summary after

Your swing data appears in two places: live on your watch while you play, and in a summary shown after the match. Swipe up through the screens to see everything, from your swing count to your speed per shot.

Which shots are detected

At the moment, Padel Point detects three shots:

  • Forehand
  • Backhand
  • Smash

More shots are coming in the next update. The shots you'll be able to track will be:

  • Forehand and backhand
  • Forehand swing and backhand swing
  • Bandeja / Vรญbora
  • Smash
  • Serve
  • Forehand volley and backhand volley

The watch labels swing data as experimental, so treat the numbers as a guide, not a measurement.

Huawei Watch โ€” what's different

The Huawei build is maintained by Huawei's own team on a separate release schedule, so it sometimes trails a step behind the Apple Watch version. Here's the honest picture, in one place.
