BladeBuddy Edge Tracker

Wondering if those skates need sharpening before the next game? Take a photo of the blade and get a plain-language estimate of edge condition, hollow and remaining steel life.

BladeBuddy was built for hockey parents juggling two or three pairs of skates, and for adult rec, figure and goalie skaters who'd rather not guess. No account, no sign-in, no email required.

BLADE SCANS Guided camera framing walks you through the shot, then gives an estimate of edge condition, hollow and remaining steel life. Profile scans compare the blade rocker against hockey, goalie and figure skate templates. Results are estimates to help you decide when to visit a shop, not measurements.

A ROSTER FOR EVERY SKATER Add a profile for each skater, or for each blade set if you swap steel on one pair of skates. Store the skate and steel model, preferred hollow, profile and weight band. When you hand the skates over the counter, you know exactly what to ask for.

SHARPENING LOGBOOK Record the date, shop, cost range and setup used, and rate the shops you try. Over time you'll see who does the job you like and what you're actually spending.

SHARPENING FORECAST Enter a weekly skating schedule or log ice time. Hours count from the date of your last logged sharpening, even if you log it after the fact, and BladeBuddy estimates when the next sharpening is likely due, so you're not finding out mid-shift on a Saturday morning.

FIND A SHOP Browse a map of rinks and pro shops that sharpen skates, including community listings added by other skaters. Travelling for a tournament? Find the nearest option before you go.

HOLLOW GUIDE AND SETUP QUIZ Not sure whether you want 1/2" or 5/8"? A short quiz suggests a starting hollow based on skater weight, level and ice conditions, with a plain-spoken guide explaining what the numbers mean.

PRIVACY FIRST No accounts. An anonymous install ID, optional analytics you can turn off, and one-tap data deletion whenever you want it gone.

FREE AND PREMIUM Free includes 3 blade scans and 1 skater or blade set. The free scans are a one-time trial for the life of the install, not a monthly refill. Pro lifts both limits and adds scan history, the damage timeline and ice-hours trends.

BladeBuddy Pro is $2.99 per week, $5.99 per month, or $49.99 per year, and the annual plan starts with a 7-day free trial. Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled; cancel anytime in your App Store settings. The hollow quiz, the setup card and the shareable sharpening ticket stay free forever.

IMPORTANT All scan results are estimates generated from photos. They are not precise measurements and are not a substitute for inspection by a qualified sharpener. Always have blades checked by a professional before use.
