## What is Arrow Count?

Use your Apple Watch to automatically count the number of arrows shot in a session and view recent history right on your watch.  No more manual recording with a tally counter.  The iPhone app lets you keep track of your training volume and compare shot timing across sessions.  

-Uses accelerometer data to detect and record the number of shots and the shot time (time from raise of bow arm to release)
-Sessions are saved in Apple Health with heart rate and calories.  
-A summary of recent sessions is available to view from the watch and a full history can be viewed on the iPhone App. 
-Charts on the watch show the volume for the last 7 days and the activity view includes a chart of the individual shot times.  
-Set your weekly volume goal and track progress against it
-Compare this month to last month

Try before you buy!  Start as many sessions as you like until you have tracked a total of 100 arrows.  Upgrade to the full version for unlimited shot recording - cheaper than a tally counter and with much more functionality.  

One time purchase only - no subscriptions! 

Instructions for use
---------------------
-Wear the watch on the arm you hold your bow with and set this in settings  (e.g usually left arm for a right handed archer)
-Start an activity. Shoot a few shots and check that it is recording arrows.  
-Should work with default settings but the sensitivity can be adjusted by swiping to the right in the activity.  If shots are not being counted try lowering the G value on the sensitivity page.  
-Recent activities can be seen in the history view accessed from the button on the first page (This may take a few seconds to load on the first run). 

Please note: 
- requires watchOS 10.6 or later.   
- requires the arm to be raised and steady to start the shot detection.  Downhill shots (e.g. on a field course) may not be registered.
