Live Tracker Setup and Installation

The FlopHero Live Tracker is a desktop app that automatically uploads your hand histories to FlopHero while you play. Instead of manually uploading sessions, it monitors your hand history folders and sends new hands in real time.

You can start reviewing your analysis immediately, even during a live session.

Downloading the Live Tracker

The Live Tracker is available to all FlopHero subscribers.

  1. Log into your FlopHero account dashboard.
  2. Go to the More section.
  3. Click Download Live Tracker to get the installer file.

Installation and Login

  1. Run the downloaded installer.
  2. Follow the setup wizard. Default settings work for most users.
  3. When installation finishes, open the FlopHero Tracker app.
  4. Log in with your FlopHero account credentials to link the tracker to your account.

Installation usually takes less than a minute.

Setting Up Your Hand History Folders

The tracker needs to know where your hand history files are saved.

  • It includes pre-configured folder paths for major poker trackers like Hand2Note, PokerTracker 4, and Holdem Manager.
  • If you use one of these, the tracker might detect your folders automatically.

Check the list of folders in the app and tick the ones you want to monitor. Active folders are continuously watched for new hand histories.

Select or confirm the folders where your hand histories are saved for real-time sync.

Adding Poker Sites Manually

If your hands are stored elsewhere:

  1. Click Add a Site.
  2. Name the poker site.
  3. Browse to the folder where your hand histories are saved.
  4. Click Confirm to activate it.

When adding a folder for the first time, you can choose to import old hand histories. This may take time for large archives, so you can skip it if you only want to track new sessions going forward.

Checking That the Tracker Works

To verify setup:

  1. Play a few hands on one of your configured poker sites.
  2. Open the Tracker List tab in the app.
  3. New hands should appear within seconds.

You can also confirm upload activity directly on the FlopHero website.

If no hands appear, see Troubleshooting Hand Uploads for setup fixes.
