Pivo Pod, XbotGo Chameleon and Trackd are motorised phone mounts: your phone records while the mount turns to follow a subject. The useful buying question is what you want to follow — yourself, a rider, one player or the action in a match — and whether the required app supports your phone.
Quick answer: which mount fits your filming?
- Consider Trackd if you are in Australia, have a compatible iPhone and want one mount for solo creator recording as well as supported sports. Solo Lock follows one person; sports modes serve a different filming task.
- Consider Pivo for individual practice, including horse and rider sessions. Check the tracking features included with the specific Pod model and app plan.
- Consider XbotGo Chameleon for team-sport recording, especially if basketball player selection by jersey number is a priority. Check its current phone and app requirements.

Trackd — for Australian iPhone creators, parents and coaches
Trackd pans and tilts your iPhone through the free Trackd app. For solo content, Solo Lock follows one person while you record cooking, tutorials, demonstrations or movement. For sport, choose the supported sport and recording setup. The same mount can serve both uses; the filming mode determines what it follows.
Trackd is a practical option when you already own a compatible iPhone and want hands-free recording without a tracking or recording subscription. It requires iPhone 12 or later running iOS 17.6 or newer. Your phone provides the recording camera and needs sufficient battery and storage.
- Choose mount-only if you already have a suitable tripod with a standard 1/4-inch thread. The Complete Kit adds the tripod and umbrella; neither option includes an iPhone.
- Check the demonstrations for your intended use. A close-range creator example does not establish full-field match performance, and a match clip does not establish how well your indoor setup will work.
- Choose another option if you need Android support now, delivery outside Australia or a self-contained camera that leaves your phone free.
- Check the current sport guide and ask about your specific setup before buying. Do not assume a future feature or an unlisted sport is supported.

Pivo Pod — individual practice and equestrian filming
Pivo documents face, body and horse tracking, with available modes varying by model. Its support guidance notes that another subject passing between the camera and the original target can affect tracking in group situations. That makes the intended subject and environment important checks for a buyer.
The Pivo Track app is listed as free, while Pivo also offers paid services. Check the exact hardware, tracking entitlement and any coaching or cloud features you need instead of assuming every feature is included.

XbotGo Chameleon — team sports and player selection
XbotGo positions Chameleon around team-sport recording and advertises selected-player tracking by jersey number for basketball. Its product page also lists FollowMe Single Mode, so it should not be dismissed as incapable of solo filming. Compare the particular mode you intend to use rather than treating each brand as limited to one audience.
Chameleon is advertised with no subscription required. Check the current phone requirements, sport coverage, bundle contents and delivered Australian price with the seller. We have not measured its tracking accuracy against Trackd in this guide.

What to check before spending money
- Define the shot. Following one person, a rider, a particular player and the overall match are different tasks. Look for footage of the mode and setting you need.
- Check your exact phone and operating system against the app requirements. A clamp fitting your phone does not establish software compatibility.
- Compare the complete delivered price in AUD. Include a stable tripod, any accessories and optional app services; avoid comparing a mount-only price with a full kit.
- Allow time to pair the mount, frame the shot and make a short test recording. This guide does not claim timed setup or battery-test results.
- Read delivery, warranty and return terms from the seller. For Trackd, standard shipping is free within Australia; check the linked policy before ordering.

Frequently asked questions
Can Trackd film me on my own?
Yes. Solo Lock follows one person in the free Trackd app, using the mount to pan and tilt your compatible iPhone. It is an option for hands-free creator videos as well as solo training; Trackd is not limited to filming the ball.
Which should I consider for soccer?
Compare Trackd and XbotGo Chameleon for match filming, then check demonstrations, sideline placement and compatibility for your intended field. This guide does not establish a tracking-accuracy winner. For individual practice, also compare the single-subject modes that match your drill.
Can I use Trackd with Android?
Not currently. Trackd requires iPhone 12 or later and iOS 17.6 or newer. Check current support before purchasing; do not buy on the assumption that a future Android release is already available.
Do these mounts replace the phone camera?
No. The three phone-mount products compared here use your phone to record. If you need a separate recording camera or want to keep your phone free, compare dedicated cameras and their individual software and subscription terms.
How much is Trackd in Australia?
As checked on 7 October 2026, the mount is A$229 and the Complete Kit with tripod and umbrella is A$319, with free standard Australian shipping. An iPhone is not included. Product pages show the current price, stock and kit contents.
