Lap analysis for karting, cars, and track days

Find the time you're leaving on track.

LapperSnapper turns your logger's data into the one answer that matters — which corner cost you, and why — right on your phone, between runs. No laptop. No upload. No waiting.

Works with AiM MyChron · RaceBox · GoPro · or just your phone.

Twenty minutes between runs. That's enough.

The run ends and the feeling starts fading. Upload-and-wait apps make you sit through a round-trip — export, upload, wait — and by the time the answer lands, you're gridding up again. So the three tenths you left in Turn 4 stay a mystery. Next session, same mistake. Unless the answer is already in your hand.

Every corner. Ranked by what it cost you.

LapperSnapper finds every turn on your lap automatically and ranks them by what they cost — time lost per corner, apex-speed deficit against your best. In plain language, not a wall of graphs. The read a data engineer gives you, before the next run.

Professional insights. Session after session.

One session tells you where the time went today. LapperSnapper keeps a track’s sessions together and reads them as a set — so you find out that Turn 4 isn’t a bad lap, it’s a habit. And you hear it before you go back out, not after.

  • Recurring corners, ranked across your last ten sessions here — and whether each one is improving or getting worse.
  • Progression that means something: personal-best trajectory, lap-time consistency, and the gap to your ultimate lap.
  • A spoken focus as you roll out — the circuit, and the one corner to work on today.

One engine behind all four.

No track database

There's no track list to be on. Your laps are the map.

Track apps race each other on library size — thousands of preset circuits, and a setup screen when yours isn't one of them. LapperSnapper skips the list: start/finish, sectors, and every corner come out of your laps automatically. Local kart track, club circuit, or a layout that changed last winter — if you can lap it, it's in.

Your data never leaves your phone.

LapperSnapper does its analysis on your phone — not our servers. No upload. No account required. It keeps working with zero signal in the middle of the paddock. That's not a setting you switch on. It's the architecture.

FAQs

Do I need a data logger, or will my phone work?

Your phone works. Hit Record and it logs the session with its GPS — that's the full analysis, not a preview. A MyChron, RaceBox, or GoPro adds channels and resolution, but the engine behind the answer is the same one.

Which MyChron models does it read?

MyChron 5, 5S, and 6, with GPS. Join the logger's WiFi and your phone pulls sessions straight off it between runs — no SD card, no laptop, no Race Studio.

Does it work at a track with no signal?

Yes. The analysis runs on your phone, not on our servers, so it works in airplane mode in the middle of the paddock. Nothing leaves your device unless you switch on cloud sync.

Is this for karting or for cars?

Both, and track days. It finds the corners on whatever circuit you're on and tells you which one cost you the most — the read doesn't care what you're driving.

Do I have to set up the track first?

No. Start/finish, sectors, and every corner come out of your laps automatically. Load the session and the answer's already there.

iPhone and Android?

Both.

How accurate is phone GPS next to a real logger?

Your phone fixes about once a second — a point every 15 to 30 meters in a kart, more in a car. Enough to time laps, draw your line, and name the corner that cost you. A RaceBox samples 25 times faster, so its apex speeds and sector deltas are sharper. Start with the phone; the logger raises the resolution, not the verdict.

What if I run an Alfano, or something else?

Not yet. MyChron, RaceBox, GoPro, and your phone are what's supported today. Tell us what you run — it's how we decide what's next.
