Phenomenal App
This app is the very best laser dryfire system. I’ve purchased and tried any other one you can find and over all this system is absolutely wonderful. However, some small things I’ve encountered is (possibly because my phone is old) some of the hits don’t register, but as long as I execute a steady trigger pull without the laser streaking across the target it registers accurately. One thing I wish that they had is a Quick Draw or shot timer system, even make it so one could work on transitions, split times between firearms, and potentially mag changes. If they did this (accurately and within hundredths of a second 0.00) they will be THE BEST all encompassing laser app. Until then I will use another app for my quick draw.

Good Hardware terrible software
The laser bullet is great and the stand, while flimsy, works well enough. The problem is the app. When I first got it it was difficult to set up but it worked if the phone was close and the lighting bright enough. Calibration made sense but was a little off. Setting distance every time was obnoxious and it doesn’t say if the distance is how far you are away from the target or how far the phone is from the target. There is no way to clear history so all the garbage shots from calibration adjustments muddle your progress and results. There is also no way to set a delay to be able to work on draw to first shot. Basic functionality seems a simple update. Now, as of the mid June update, the app is unusable. Calibration no longer works. If the app is updated with auto calibration and basic features it could be really good. I want this system to work so if you need alpha or beta testers to make these upgrades, I would be happy to help. Lastly, some replacement orings would be nice for when there go bad.

Great product great service
I had bought the system in February. It works very well. I had reached out as I needed more laser bullets for my .38 as I had only purchased one. Unfortunately they were sold out and I had some issues making contact. Turns out they were issues on my end. NOT a lack of response from the DRIFIRE team.
I was recently able to make contact and they are wonderful. Not only did they honor my expired coupon but they went out of their way to help me out
As for the system it works well and is a useful tool in normal times In these extraordinary times I find this an especially useful tool. I no longer have to risk going out to the range and can practice at home while social distancing from others
I highly recommend this system

Works, but could be Waaaaaay better.
Cartridge is well made, the target is decent, could be a bit brighter, the phone holder is cheap and not a good height, however the app is where the real problem is. It just doesn’t pick up the target well at all which makes it hard to fit the phone to pick up the laser light. Also the app, after you finish your training, has a small glitch (not to mention that if you move the phone slightly you’ll lose the proper target picture showing your shots) but it also covers the information with a huge bar saying start over, share etc. that information shouldn’t be included in the image shared. And finally, it sticks to have rack the slide each time. That’s something I kind of assumed upon purchase, but after watching a video, I assumed there was a way around it seeing as they had a gentleman doing just that. Great idea, not so great execution.

Great Product at a Reasonable Price
The DRIFIRE system is a fantastic way to practice - especially considering our current challenges of closed ranges and limited ammo.
The system is sensitive to ambient light - the brighter the better from a hit tracking perspective. I removed the camera holder from the included tripod and attached it to a 4x6 inch 500 lumen rechargeable work light from a discount tool store ($25) with a threaded rod. Shot tracking is perfect, and I’m able to complete ten 20 round sessions in about 30 minutes. The app is being upgraded to handle a couple of the glitches, but screen grabbing the image after each session is an easy way to store my history.
I would highly recommend this as an option for at home practice - whether we are in isolation or not. The money I’m saving on ammo, will stay in the bank until supplies rebound.
