### 3/5 — iOS

*2025-12-26*

Well it worked great before. Pull it out after a while and newer phone. “Digital link not supported.”
Chrono works fine. Need an update that supports Bluetooth

### 3/5 — Works good but

*2025-12-14*

Works good but i need a way to print the report from my iphone without saving it and sending to a PC. Going from an apple product to a windows pc is a pain at best.

### 3/5 — Great but needs an update

*2024-11-08*

This app for the chronograph works great and I like everything it does, but since the latest iPhone update, it will no longer connect and said Bluetooth is not supported anymore. So until the ad gets updated, I will leave my review at three stars.

### 2/5 — What happened to dark mode?

*2024-03-21, version 1.9.46*

I had it on dark mode and aftet update it reverted to white and I can't find any setting to change it back.

### 3/5 — Corrupt backup

*2023-09-19, version 1.9.35*

When importing backup to iPad, I get error.   Backups from old version import fine.   The new one errors out each time.

### 2/5 — Latest ver broke csv export

*2023-09-18*

This app worked great and i could import files to Gordons Reloading Tool for load development. Not now. Only can export PDF which is useless because it isnt data. Look and feel changed too so i suspect someone dropped a line of code…..please fix!

### 2/5 — Sept. 2023 update isn’t great if you have saved images.

*2023-09-18*

With the latest update, I can’t view images any longer.  I’ve saved a ton of group images and now the only option is to “Remove” or “Choose” a new image.  The thumbnail is too small to be of value.

### 2/5 — Will not stay connected

*2023-03-02, version 1.7.6*

App worked great to start, now my iPhone says that it is not compatible and only works some of the time.

### 4/5 — Seems to work for current iPadOS, Fail on iOS & macOS

*2022-07-23*

I was considering sending new DLX model back after wasting a couple of hours attempting to get it to work with current iphone and laptop OS versions. I bought Bluetooth Chronograph for the stats. Mostly failure. I got voice function to work on phone, but no stats. Then I tried my iPad with latest OS. It seemed to work. I can export data via email. The only thing left to test is backups. I hope  Competition Electronics can get phone app working again. If iPad didn’t work I may have sent chrono back.  Bluetooth needs to actually in work modern electronics in these modern times, not just lip service.  I would work on fixing phone next.  Remember there will be new OS’es across the board in Fall of 2022.

### 2/5 — Dated

*2022-01-30, version 1.7.2*

Very basic. Not much has been added in the 6 years I’ve been using.
Be nice to at least have folders for load development. Not going to hold my breath.

### 4/5 — Molto funzionale

*2021-02-25, version 1.7.2*

Bellissima app molto funzionale e comoda... sarebbe bello se in un prossimo aggiornamento si potesse inserire il peso del proiettile ed avere il resoconto della potenza di ogni tiro in joule...

### 3/5 — App is decent, but!

*2021-01-12*

Maybe I should’ve took the time to send my shot list to a back up? But FYI, if you upgrade phones be sure to export a backup copy. I lost everything! Good thing I keep manual load records!

### 1/5 — Needs IOS update!

*2026-01-07, version 1.9.86*

Worked great until now it doesn’t work with latest Apple update.  Get this fixed or it is useless.

### 1/5 — Newest update is broken

*2025-05-03*

Got the newest update, and the edit function doesn't work any more.
I can select a shot list or duplicate a shot list, and when I tap the Edit button, nothing happens. Before I updated the app, everything worked fine, now the Edit button doesn't work. Please fix this problem.

### 1/5 — Connecting issues

*2024-12-08, version 1.9.65*

Constantly losing connection, get ready after turning on, can’t EVER find it again, spinning continuously

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with latest IOS 17.3

*2024-02-27, version 1.9.46*

This app was very useful until I upgraded my iPhone to iOS 17.3. It no longer works. When trying to connect a message on the phone says, “Digital Link not supported“. Hey developer, how about fixing this?

### 1/5 — New version is still buggy

*2023-10-18*

The dark mode was fixed, but still buggy. 

The backup file is corrupt and can't restore it to on different device. I used to use this to import to my PC app. 

If moving too fast in edit mode, the photo doesn't save.

Again, moving too fast in edit mode can cause the temp values not to filled in.

If temp values are missing the CSV file will not import to Gordon's Reloading Tool (GRT). 

Can't view photos.

### 1/5 — New update puts it back to the stone age

*2023-09-15, version 1.9.34*

One it the worst updates ever - would not purchase again - must be someone out there who listens to their customers and wants to make a product that is improved- not headed backwards

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with iPhone 12 and latest iOS

*2022-10-01, version 1.7.3*

Chronograph will not pair with phone. I only bought this chronograph for this feature.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with anything new.

*2022-09-13, version 1.7.2*

Does not link to I-phone or I-pad.  Frustrating this is not supported with apple products.

### 1/5 — 3, there WILL NOT be a forth...

*2022-06-03, version 1.7.2*

I have now owned three of these Compitition Electronics chronographs and every one has been a "PITA" at best and realistically, simply junk.

If your lucky to have this stay app to stay connected the chrony may register 5 shots in a row before erroring (let alone the app recording the shots) for the next dozen shots (not exaggerating). 

Following the instruction manual for lighting conditions, laughable... these chronograph's are simply unreliable.

Like I earlier here, there will not be a fourth.

### 1/5 — Not working iPhone 13 Pro Max iOS 15

*2021-10-16*

I bought this chrono specifically for the app functionality. It worked fine last year with my iPhone 12 Pro Max but won’t connect to Bluetooth anymore on new phone. Get with the times and update this consistently or you will get left in the Stone Age.

### 5/5 — Easy and Awesome

*2024-04-24*

This is the only way to use a chronograph. Great design. Easy to use and take notes with. Great calculations. Between this and the Hornady 4DOF app you’ve got all you need.

### 5/5 — Works just fine!

*2024-02-01*

Works great on both my iPhone and iPad!  So far, after about 150 shots, it has called every one of them!

### 5/5 — What a shooter needs!

*2024-01-27*

I do a lot of load development and a good chronograph needs good software, this app is excellent. It allows not only Bluetooth recording of chronograph results, but logging of load data for future analysis.  User interface is friendly and functional. I would pay for this app.

### 5/5 — Latest update fixed a few bugs

*2023-10-28*

All bugs I reported have been fixed: The dark mode, corrupt Backups, view full photo, slow weather update.

### 5/5 — Dark mode was missing

*2023-09-17*

Released without dark mode.  This update fixed it👍

### 5/5 — So far, so good......

*2022-12-31*

Not sure why this app has not received better ratings.  I just got my ProChrono DLX bluetooth version (obviously) and put 8  .25 caliber pellets through it without a glitch.  Great readout with large numbers on both my phone and my Macbook Pro.  The app is easy to navigate and gives you all the info any serious shooter needs regarding projectile velocities (fps) and foot pounds of energy (fpe).  Lots of good stuff to know when modifiying any firearm or air rifle.

### 5/5 — Fixed iOS 16 export bug

*2022-11-07, version 1.7.6*

iOS 16 introduced two bugs. Export summary (pdf) of multiple strings crashed. Voice readings stopped working. 

Both issues have been fixed.  5 stars again.

### 5/5 — Work good

*2022-01-14, version 1.7.2*

Ive got the Pro Chrono Dlx with extra Lights, about 2 years and the Connection work Good no Problem.
I Use the Export Funktion csv.
I think, for the Money the best you van geht

### 5/5 — Easy Setup works great

*2019-10-13*

Very easy to use, fast setup and stable.

Love this app please continue to support it because it makes my chrono system so much better.  I feel great about my investment.

### 5/5 — App wonderful

*2019-08-14, version 1.6.0*

Finally perfection.  Only the Millibars for atmospheric pressure were missing but now it has been added.  Useful to be able to choose the various measurement options keeping in mind that both speed options are needed.  Thanks Alessandro
