Overshove vs Fastroll

Fastroll is a live hand tracker: log hands fast at the table, build a personal database, and filter it later to study spots. Overshove is a results and review tracker: sessions, bankroll, true hourly, variance and a study log. These are different jobs, and this page will not pretend otherwise. Many serious live players could happily run both.

A hand library, not a results tracker

Fastroll fills a real gap: live players have almost no good way to build a searchable hand database the way online players get one for free. Its four advertised features tell the whole story: Fast Hand Logging, Robust Personal Database, Easy Filter and Export, Identify Your Leaks. You log cards, positions, stacks and street-by-street actions in seconds, filter the library later by position, betting line or pot type, tag hands, and export them as readable text for a study group or coach. A recent update added AI text conversion: speak or paste a hand description and it structures the stakes, positions and blinds for you.

Be clear about what it is not. At our July 2026 check, Fastroll's features, pricing and user guide pages contained no session tracking, no bankroll, no hourly rate, no win-loss results and no variance features of any kind. That is not a criticism; it is the design. Fastroll's own framing is hand-first, and the green cells in the table above are not Overshove beating Fastroll at its own game. They are two tools doing different jobs.

What each one captures

The cleanest way to see the split is the unit of record. Fastroll's unit is the hand; Overshove's is the session. Everything else follows from that choice.

The arithmetic of logging everything

Why does no single tool do both jobs well? The maths at the table is the reason. Live full ring deals roughly 25 to 30 hands an hour, so a six-hour session is around 160 hands. Even at Fastroll's fast capture, seconds per hand, logging every hand would mean an hour-plus of phone time per session, which no live player sustains and no card room enjoys. So a live hand library is necessarily selective: you log the interesting spots, maybe 3 to 10 a session, and the value is in the detail per hand.

Session economics run the other way. One record per session, ten seconds to enter, but the fields have to be right: rake model, dealer tips, travel, hours. Skip those and the hourly you compute is fiction. A buy-in and cash-out-only log overstates the live hourly, while a complete session log supports the variance read that separates running bad from playing bad.

Selective hand capture plus complete session capture is the workable combination. That is what each of these tools does at its core, and why the overlap between them is so small.

Complements, not rivals

The natural stack for a serious live player: Overshove as the system of record for sessions, money and the review loop, Fastroll as the deep library for the hands that deserve real study. They meet in the middle without duplicating: Overshove's marked hands flag which sessions contained the spots that felt wrong, and the leak you tag in review is exactly the filter you then run across your Fastroll library to see how often the spot recurs.

Exports point the same direction. Fastroll exports hands as readable text for a study group or coach, 2 a day free and unlimited on its paid tier. Overshove's Coach Pack bundles your stats, tagged leaks and marked hands into one PDF for the same coach. A coach receiving both has the numbers and the hands, which is the whole review conversation in two attachments.

If you only want one tool, choose by the question you actually ask after a session. Which hand was that, and how do I play it better: Fastroll. How am I really doing, and where is the money leaking: Overshove.

Costs, honestly

Fastroll's free tier, Limiter, includes unlimited hand logging with basic filters and 2 text exports a day, ad-supported. The paid tier, Crusher, was $14.99 a month at our July 2026 check: no ads, all advanced filters, draft hands, editing of completed hands, unlimited exports. A third tier, Maniac, was listed as coming soon with no published feature set; its deep insights wording is worth watching in case Fastroll expands toward analytics. The App Store listing showed 4.9 out of 5 from 85 ratings.

Overshove's core tracker is free. After useful value, the only paid offer is Founder: one GBP 79 payment for 730 days with no automatic renewal. Running both free cores therefore costs at most the Crusher subscription while you decide whether either earns a paid slot.

Who should not bother with either

Skip Fastroll if you do not study individual hands. A hand library you never filter is dead weight, and the discipline of logging spots mid-session only pays if the review happens. Skip Overshove if you will not log sessions: no tool can log a session you never enter. The habit is the product in both cases; each tool just makes its habit cheap.

And the standing honesty about Overshove: private beta, web app on any phone plus Windows desktop, iOS and Android planned, no HUD, no solver, no in-hand advice, no profit promise. Fastroll's native iOS app is live on the App Store, and its site links a Google Play listing we did not independently verify at our check. If native mobile polish for hand capture is the deciding factor, Fastroll has it now on iPhone.

Apps change often, so confirm the current feature set before deciding. Overshove is in private beta: a web app on any phone plus a Windows desktop build, with iOS and Android planned. It is a review tool, not a HUD or solver.
