### 2/5 — Formules payantes incompréhensibles

*2026-04-15*

Ça varie de 20€ pour 3 mois, à 60€ par an, et une autre à 30€ par an… Déjà ce n’est pas clair. Et si on veut essayer 3 jours gratuits, on bascule sur l’offre à 20€ pour 3 mois. Non merci, je vais rester sur Strelok Pro, 10€ à vie et toujours dispo sur android.

### 1/5 — It will not load on my phone

*2022-07-28, version 1.5*

It will not load on my phone

### 1/5 — Totaler Schrott, lässt sich nicht einmal starten, stürzt sofort wieder ab

Totaler Schrott, lässt sich nicht einmal starten, stürzt sofort wieder ab

### 1/5 — Des promesses de politiciens

*2026-06-08*

Logiciel en français ? Impossible de trouver où on change la langue !

### 1/5 — No free version

*2026-01-03*

You must pay to even find out if this app is worth having. No free version.

**Developer response:** Hello! Most part of this app is free. Just close paywall window using x in top left corner.

### 1/5 — Total bait. Not free

*2025-11-19, version 1.991*

App appears free but you can’t use anything without paying

### 1/5 — Update available?

*2025-08-18, version 1.991*

Crashes, unable to navigate thru menus

### 1/5 — Escroquerie

*2024-12-26*

Oblige au paiement et à l’abonnement même quand vous refusez en cliquant surla croix.

### 1/5 — Nicht mal testbar

*2024-12-21*

Aggressives Vorgehen um zum Kauf zu bringen. Aber dafür eine sehr schlechte Implementierung.Katastrophale Übersetzung.

### 1/5 — Funktioniert nicht

*2024-06-27*

Egal was man für Werte eingibt, es werden nur falsche Werte ausgegeben.
Finger weg

### 1/5 — Tout faux

*2023-10-16*

Complètement inutile, les valeurs de clic sont sous estimé. Pour passer de 200 a 300 0.1mrad alors qu’il en faut 0.8mrad et c’est de pire en pire sur des longues distances. Un clic mrad 0.250, j’ai beau mettre 0.100 ça ne change rien. Tout est à revoir. Dommage l interface est pourtant clair.

### 1/5 — App keeps crashing

*2022-10-17, version 1.8*

App keeps crashing when I click any of the Tabs on the bottom

### 1/5 — startet nicht

*2022-08-17*

kein Test möglich, die Anwendung stürzt beim Start ab

in den laufenden Anwendungen bleibt ein Bildschirm mit blauem Farbverlauf zurück, der sich nicht vollständig starten lässt und bei jedem Aufruf wieder abstürzt

(getestet auf iPhone 7, iOS 14.7.1)

### 5/5 — A must have for precision shooting

*2024-07-24, version 1.97*

This is probably the 4th ballistic calculator I’ve used this past year and it’s proven to be a cut above the others. I have 6 rifles that I shoot anywhere from 200 yards, all the way out to 1 mile. I shoot a number of different store bought ammo and I absolutely love being able to store the different ammo specifically to each rifle. Also, if I miss and need to adjust my elevation I can do it in the app and can find the core velocity to plug in and get 1st round impacts. Also I can plug in different values for wind and learn how it effects different calibers. It’s a must have for me at this point.

### 5/5 — Great App, huge database, one annoying issue

*2024-03-17, version 1.95*

Retical/scope selection is not saved to the rifle name, nor to a list. Must hunt for the scope from a huge list each time changing rifles. Resorted to naming my rifles by exact scope/model listing so that I could more easily search for it. Ammo, selections and creations are saved to a list. Rifle selections, save the zero distance but not the scope height, How could they miss not saving scope selections???? No provision to save individual rifle notes that would be helpful among other things to remind the user of everything they needed to go back and re-enter each time they selected a different “saved” (loosely) rifle.

### 5/5 — Top !

*2024-02-24*

Suffisamment précis et simple d’utilisation pour établir les réglages de base, avant de trouver bonne association : canon/munition

### 5/5 — Muy buena

*2023-12-09*

Excelente

### 5/5 — Nice, but with minor bug

*2023-05-04, version 1.92*

App appears to correlate well with published ballistics data. Nice to be able to build a database of rifles and ammo. However, the scope height does not get saved for each rifle. Not a big problem for me as I don’t have many. My workaround is to put the scope height in to rifle name so I don't forget.

### 5/5 — Nice app with simple and useful UI

*2022-11-20, version 1.8*

The only thing lacking is slope compensation in the app. Very much looking forward to adding this feature.

### 4/5 — Riton 5 Primal 2-12x44

*2025-02-06, version 1.991*

Would love to be able to use this outstanding app with my hunting rifle. Unfortunately, the PDH reticle.

### 4/5 — Worked fine until latest update

*2023-12-11, version 1.95*

Loved the app, with the exception that I wanted to be able to input shooting angle (example when you are on a mountain shooting down). This was a minor feature though, it was still my go to ballistics calculator.

Giving it 4 stars because the app started crashing after its latest update, especially when I click on the reticle tab at the bottom. Will change to 5 stars when this gets fixed.

### 4/5 — Perfect for sub 12ft/lbs air rifles

*2023-05-06*

This app works and is pretty simple to see where the pellets supposed to land and at what range. 

Nothing too technical and also user friendly (unlike some more “too technical” apps). The rest comes with practice on the range and a well zeroed scope. 

I would give 5* if you could drag across the trajectory line in 1/2 mills but you do get the general shot trajectory mill by mill, little bit of guesstimation needed and practice to be acurate. 

Hell every rifles different :)

### 3/5 — Can be perfected for the price.

*2024-03-28*

This is sumoe and good ballistics app, but for the price, many important features are missing ( coriolis effect, incline angle of the barrel, size of the ammo, wind taken from bluetooth equipment…)
