Overshove vs Left Pocket

Left Pocket is a well-made, fast-moving iOS tracker: a floating session timer, win rate, ROI and variance trends, stake and location splits, a genuinely novel health layer that now includes a Playability Index score, and tournament staking. It is Apple-only. Overshove is a review-first tool for live cash that runs on any phone via the web plus a Windows desktop, and it is in beta. Here is the honest comparison.

Overshove or Left Pocket: which suits you?

Left Pocket and Overshove are both built for live cash players and differ on platform and on where the depth sits. Per its public App Store listing and getleftpocket.com checked in July 2026, Left Pocket is a fast-moving iOS tracker with a floating session timer, win rate, ROI and variance trends, stake and location splits, tournament staking, and a health layer that now includes a Playability Index score. It runs on Apple hardware only. If your whole setup is Apple and you suspect sleep and mood move your results, that health layer is a genuine reason to choose it. Overshove runs in the browser on any phone plus a Windows desktop, and is in private beta. Its depth sits in the loop after the session: the true hourly after rake context, tips and travel, a confidence band on your actual sample, leaks tagged to marked hands with history by stake and line, a reads notebook, and CSV export.

The most active iOS tracker we compare against

Left Pocket is shipping fast, and that deserves saying first. In June 2026 alone it added a rake calculator and an equity calculator, then rakeback tracking, and by the end of the month a health widget with a Playability Index score plus expanded sharing. Its App Store rating stood at 4.8 from 106 ratings at our July 2026 check, and its stated aim is helping players climb stakes with healthy bankroll management.

The core tracker is genuinely good: live session logging with a floating timer and Lock Screen widget, win rate, ROI and variance trends, and interactive charts split by stakes, time of day and location. Expenses exist as a session field, rakeback is now tracked, and data imports exist specifically for switchers from Pokerbase, Poker Bankroll Tracker and Poker Analytics 6. On an iPhone, this is a polished, current product, and several rows above are honest ties.

The health layer, taken seriously

Left Pocket's most distinctive bet is that your body is part of your win rate. It correlates sleep, mindfulness and mood with results, and the new Playability Index compresses those signals into one score that answers should I even sit tonight. For a player whose losing sessions cluster after short sleep, that is not a gimmick; it is a leak-finder pointed at the player instead of the play.

Overshove approaches the same question from the session side: the Pro tier's readiness and drills features are pre-session checks rather than health-data integration, and Overshove does not read your sleep or mood data at all. If quantified-self analytics wired into your poker log is what you want, Left Pocket is ahead here and this page says so plainly. The Overshove counterargument is scope: the readiness check costs nothing to maintain, while a health layer is only as good as the data you feed it.

Where the review loops differ

Left Pocket's AI hand feature deserves precision, because the phrase AI hand reviews oversells it: per its own listing, you speak or type a hand and the AI converts the story into standard hand-history format, saved to session notes and shareable. That is a capture aid, and a clever one. It is not analysis, leak tagging or a study log; no leak log or longitudinal study feature appears on its listing.

Overshove's loop is built exactly there: leaks tagged in review, tracked over time by stake and line, tied to the sessions and marked hands they came from, next to a reads notebook on your regular pool, and exportable as one Coach Pack PDF when you work with a coach. The answer to running bad or playing bad lives in the variance read plus a leak log with history, not in any single session's notes.

On the money side, both apps log expenses, but Overshove treats the net number as the headline: the true hourly after rake, tips and travel is the default stat, not a field you remember to check. Left Pocket's listing does not state whether its hourly nets out those costs, so we score that row on what is documented.

The device split, worked through

Capture happens at the table; study happens at a desk. Left Pocket covers the first half superbly on iPhone and stops at Apple's fence: iPhone, iPad and Vision Pro, no Android, no web, no Windows. Overshove is a web app that runs on any phone, Android included, plus a Windows desktop build, with one synced record across them included at every tier.

Money and migration

Price both honestly by checking in the app. Left Pocket is free to download with a capped free tier; Pro unlocks unlimited sessions, advanced charting and staking, but its App Store page lists several Pro price points from $2.99 up to $79.99 plus a $149.99 lifetime without labelling the periods, so we will not pretend to quote you a monthly figure. Overshove has a free core and one limited Founder offer: one GBP 79 payment for 730 days with no automatic renewal.

Migration in either direction looks workable. Left Pocket imports from Pokerbase, Poker Bankroll Tracker and Poker Analytics 6, and its site references CSV export; Overshove imports CSV with a one-time column mapping and exports CSV at every tier. Test the export before you rely on it, in both directions; that advice is universal, not a dig.

Who should not switch

Stay with Left Pocket if you live on iPhone and want the most finished native app in this comparison today, if the health and mood layer is genuinely feeding your decisions, or if tournament staking with backer percentages is a current need rather than a someday one. It is actively developed, well rated and moving quickly; none of the honest arguments against it involve quality.

Switch, or at least run the beta in parallel, if you are on Android (Left Pocket is a non-starter there), if you want your log and your study on a desktop screen, or if the leak log and Coach Pack describe the review you actually do. The standing honesty about Overshove: private beta, web plus Windows, mobile apps planned, no HUD, no solver, no in-hand advice, no profit promise. Neither app promises your win rate moves, and that is the right bar for both.
