Will not sync sessions
The hardware works fine for the most part, but the app will not sync any sessions to my phone making it useless
May 2026: certified disaster
First the hardware seems solid. The app seemed to track all the shots accurately as i could determine and despite the quirks (annoying but live-able), exporting data out is where it fails. I can only see 4 of 6 sessions on iPhone (was showing all of them earlier). So when I export to excel I don’t have two sessions.
I synced to ipad, saw all six sessions, but once exported, all had same session name, cartridge, projectile grain weight and other variables!
To figure out, I was fortunate as i was also plotting the grouping separately on graph paper and wrote session start time on each load so i could reconcile. I looked at session time and shot count, then and figured it out. All the session names, the notes section were reverted. Even syncing with iPad it was not there. Added hours to post shooting reconciliation. I didn’t appreciate if i had not been taking paper notes, that i may had had to reshoot $250 in ammo if I couldn’t disentangle this mess

Weak
The Athlon ballistic light app is very weak. I could not get my phone to receive the data from the chronograph, even though it was paired on both devices.
Update as of 11May26: it paired with the phone and updated the firmware with no issues. Will try it out soon.

Need Additional menus
Need menus to add different bows, crossbows and air rifles or air gun.
Having a menu just for rifles limit what you can do with this app.
Also, the choice for reticle is ridiculous.
A lot of work is needed obviously and I hope you will spend time to improve it.
