SmoothTrack: Head Tracker App Reviews

This is a great app, works flawlessly for flight sims. I would like however the optio to use backside camera instead of the front camera.

For just 10 bucks you get a head tracking solution that drastically improves your experience in games like MS Flight Simulator. If you don’t already have dedicated head tracking hardware this is a no brainer. Tip: gradually increase the sensitivity as you get accustomed to the motion so you can look all the way to the side without twisting your neck and eyeballs too much.

For someone without a dedicated set up and on a budget this app is a life saver. Never had a single issue and is so easy to use. Recommend to everyone getting into the sim world. Thanks Dev!

App works as advertised, but doesn’t appear to be able to stay connected in the background (so won’t work if you also want to run an instrument panel or flight planning app simultaneously on the same device).

Works with ATS and Euro truck! Worth the purchase.

I use this with MSFS and it adds so much. VR isn’t great as I need access to my notepad when talking to ATC and throttle controls. This adds that VR realism. The new update to account for camera angle helps so much.

Great face tracking tool and responsive dev.

I’m using this in USB mode with DCS and the A10C module. It works incredibly well. Follow the instructions on the support website to a T and it will work. I was previously using AI track and a PS2 eye, which worked ok - this is better, much better. Well worth the price. I’m so glad I tried this before shelling out the money for trackir.

I’m using this for DCS and it is great! The tracking is smooth and it automatically connects to DCS as soon as I open the game. My only grievance is that connecting it to the pc can be a little annoying at times but it is well worth it.

A fantastic head tracker for 10 bucks. A game changer. Setup was pretty quick, I use it every day.

This app is a great headtracker if you’re on a budget, but there are some things that aren’t perfect. One of them being that it eats through a phone battery real quick, i recommend using it on low power mode. The other being it loses track of your head if you turn horizontal to it, but i can’t ask for too much from a phone camera. Overall a great option if you need a fast and cheap headtracker.

This app literally saved me $190 because I almost bought a trackIR to play DCS and MFS2020. I have an Oculus, but it gets annoying sometimes I have an iPhone 13 pro max, works flawlessly. 10/10 recommend

This ten dollar app is better than expensive peripherals like Tobii or Track IR. Up and running in less than ten minutes, works flawlessly. Saved me 200 bucks since I no longer need extra hardware! Support this dude he deserves it.

Works very well and the guides are very helpful.

Thanks so much for developing this! Not everyone has $200 to shell out for TrackIR, and I’m so glad to have heard about your app. It works wonderfully, took 5 minutes to set up, and has already made my Flight Sim experience so much more immersive!

I don’t write reviews. But I really wanted for this one. It Works perfectly with Microsoft flight sim 2020. Easy to setup and works flawlessly. I used Track IR 4 in the past. I honestly don’t see a difference except this is a $10 solution 🤯

Fantastic. Very little fine tuning (basically just adjusting sensitivity on app screen that’s fairly obviously displayed) required to get the right amount of movement.

Wish I had this for FSX back in the day. Works amazing and flawlessly. Simply amazing and brings out the awesome scenery even more in MSFS 2020. A must have if you are not going the very expensive route of VR.

Using this for MSFS2020. Was skeptical, but this is the real deal. Worked straight away with default settings. Very impressed. Best money I’ve ever spent on an app.

It works like a charm if you can’t afford Track IR don’t worry smooth track is the same thing as Track IR, its confusing at first but its super fun, this is crazy on how it works!

* A great alternative for head tracking while using a simulator. * Price is fair * Customer Service is five star’s I had issues trying to connect with FS9. E-mailed the developer with questions. He replied back and guided me same day.

Incomparable. If you do simulations, this is a must have.

Fantastic head tracking solution for any sim that works with trackIR. Low latency, smooth, configurable and very immersive. Definitely happy with my purchase. Can't wait to see what's next!

Easy as the broken down steps install and enjoy very happy with the purchase

Awesome piece of software! Saved me lots of money on more expensive head tracking options. Works great in DCS!

I used trackir5 and it overheated and quit working within a week. Tried SmoothTrack and wow. Incredible. Just as good. No difference. Everyone who flies or races needs this.

Hey John. So I have opened my firewall etc. I’m not exactly sure how to get the modem part set up correctly. When I hit start I get a “broken pipe” error message. Just wondering if you have any pointers for me. Thanks

Runs robustly once set up, tracking is precise with no tracking lag, but I’ve got some minuscule frame lag (very subtle) I still need to optimize on the Opentrack side of things (open source software on the PC).

Set up is very easy. Tracking is simply amazing. Much easier than trackir. And developer is working on improvements( he is popular on r/flightsim) . Buy with confidence

Works great for FS 2020. Easy to set up - just google how to do it, and you’ll figure out the rest! Pretty easy.

First time using headtracking and it makes the immersion level so much better , setup took two minutes works in FSX no problems

Easy to setup and bring games to new levels.

Works very well indeed with Flight Sim 2020 + iPad. Transforms the whole experience. I have an Oculus and was waiting for a future patch to go VR but this is a step closer to that. Developer is incredibly responsive.

Best application for this type of need. VR for little cost and working efficiently. Service is great, developer answers emails within minutes if you need set-up help.

The since the most recent update only infinite flight shows when opening the app. Please bring back opentrack...

This app is dope. Works perfectly and totally worth $5. Headtracking is smooth and effortless. 100% would buy again.

So easy to set up and use. Works really well with flight simulator. Great alternative to expensive and clunky IR tracking hardware.

Only took a couple of minutes to set up, works great! Would whole-heartedly recommend to anyone.

Tracks head movements exceptionally well! Need a version for Android ASAP

Just follow the instructions. Don’t forget to change the port in OpenTrack in the UDP settings. Works well!

Absolutely amazing. Works perfectly and only took a few minutes to set up! Definitely an alternative to track ir

I set this up in a period of about 5 minutes using the clear step by step instructions in the app. It works as advertised - shows up as a TrackIR in Microsoft Flight Sim. Does wonders for immersion in game.

I can now fly from inside the cockpit and not feel like I can’t see what I need. This really makes Flight Simulator 2020 shine!

I’m not sure how it compares to the full TrackIR but for the price, the result is fantastic!

My TrackIR broke sitting in a drawer the last couple years and I was looking for an easy and cheap alternative. To my surprise that turned out to be my iPhone. Glad I found this app, working great with the new MSFS.
