Pickleball drills

You already know how to hit it. The question is which one.

Most rec players lose points they had won, by picking the wrong shot from a good position. DUPR IQ is a pickleball drills app for iPhone that puts you in the position, gives you four options, and grades the choice. Then it names the principle, so the next one is not a guess.

The whole court, not a highlight

Every drill shows all four players' feet, the ball, and who is set. Shot selection is a reading problem before it is a hitting problem.

Positions that never repeat

Court positions are generated, not shipped as the same fifty screenshots reshuffled. Every one is physically legal and has exactly one best answer.

Answers with a reason

Keep it unattackable. Get to the kitchen. Hit the player who is not set. Each answer names the principle it came from, so it transfers to the next rally.

Graded by phase

Serve and return, third shot, transition, dink battle, speed-up. Progress is tracked per phase, so you can see which one is actually costing you games.

What is free

Fifteen graded balls every day, across every phase. The counter resets each calendar day, not once for good.

DUPR IQ Pro

Unlimited graded balls, every drill phase, and full progress history.

Frequently asked questions

Is there an app for pickleball drills?

Yes. DUPR IQ is an iPhone app of shot-selection drills: it shows a real doubles position, gives you four shots to choose from, grades your pick and names the coaching principle behind the best answer. These are decision drills you do on your phone, not physical drills.

How do I decide between a third shot drop and a drive?

It depends on where all four players are, which is exactly what DUPR IQ drills. Each ball shows the court, you choose from four options, and the answer names the principle, such as keeping the ball unattackable or hitting the player who is not set.

Which parts of a pickleball point can I practice?

Serve and return, third shot, transition, dink battle and speed-up. Progress is tracked per phase, so you can see which one is costing you the most games.

Do the positions repeat?

No. Court positions are generated rather than reused from a fixed question bank, and every one is physically legal with exactly one best answer.

Is DUPR IQ free?

The free app gives you fifteen graded balls every day across every phase, and the count resets each calendar day. DUPR IQ Pro unlocks unlimited balls, every drill phase and full progress history, and prices are shown in the app before you buy and vary by region.

Is DUPR IQ the official DUPR app, and does it change my rating?

No. DUPR IQ is independent and is not affiliated with Dynamic Universal Pickleball Rating (DUPR), USA Pickleball or any rating body, and it does not calculate, report or affect any official rating.

Does DUPR IQ collect my data?

No. It does not collect or transmit your personal information, and your practice history, per-phase accuracy and streaks are stored on your device only.

Shot selection is coached opinion, not physics. The app states the system it grades against so you can disagree with it on purpose. Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Dynamic Universal Pickleball Rating (DUPR), USA Pickleball, or any rating body. The app does not calculate, report, or affect any official rating.
