Ps.(don’t try to flip it inside.) ### 1/5 — Grandparent *2025-07-11* Got this from my grandkid tried to get it together but website not available. Just wanna know if this can be used without playing the game. Can you should have other things? Will it allow the gun to be used? ### 1/5 — Wow *2025-06-29, version 2.0.11* The app doesn’t connect to my gun don’t buy!! ### 1/5 — Horrible *2025-06-17, version 2.0.11* Will not unlock my gel gun no matter how many times I try and deleting it and re downloading it doesn’t do anything. ### 1/5 — Horrible product *2025-06-16, version 2.0.11* Just doesn’t work, nothing more to say. ### 1/5 — Guys help me *2025-06-05, version 2.0.11* When I got my gel blaster, I tried to connect it, but it’s connecting to my real Bluetooth in my settings and it’s not connecting in the app help ### 1/5 — Dumb idea *2025-05-18, version 2.0.11* This app won’t even let me connect to my blaster. Shouldn’t even need an app to use it. Fix this stupid app ### 1/5 — App does not connect and drone won’t turn off *2025-04-27* Bought this for my son’s birthday. Said it needed an update so I did it. No completion bell. Now I get the spinning wheel of death and it does the same thing on two phones. No reset button. Tried to undownload and redownload. Tried deleting cache. Still won’t connect ### 1/5 — Trash *2025-04-22, version 2.0.11* The app is impossible to figure out and the gun does not connect don’t buy the 50$ trash gun and the ammo you have to soak in water for 3 HOURS ### 1/5 — Terrible *2025-02-19, version 2.0.11* Returning this product. App gun function doesn’t work. Why would you have a gun that has to connect to Bluetooth. What a let down. ### 1/5 — Bad *2025-02-08* That raptor-1 review seems fake. Creator prob deletes the bad reviews but everytime I try to pair it just stops in the middle of pairing. Also why do you need to unlock the gun? I just want to use it without going through hours of work. Overall bad I’m going to return this to target if it don’t work soon. Also website broken. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — It’s the worst *2026-08-04, version 2.0.11* Really glitched ### 1/5 — Does not work!!! *2026-06-03, version 2.0.11* So I got the sentry gun right cause yk looked cool but as soon as I got it and charged it up and everything the gun did move around and work, but as soon as I got the app and “connected” the gun it stopped working. So yeah basically don’t get the app it’s straight buns ### 1/5 — Don’t use app *2026-03-14, version 2.0.11* I wouldn’t let me play with my gun and I wouldn’t let me start a game write a review if you can help me ### 1/5 — Greedy developers removed a feature that now forces you to buy more stuff to use. *2025-12-26* The app used to work with just the drone. We purchased the drone and used nerf guns. You could shoot it with anything and it would keep score and you could choose how many shots would fully bring drone done. Was pretty awesome Now, you also need to buy their blaster. I won’t buy any products from this company after a switch like that. The drone loses features of manual mode after you pair with app and you can’t use it with app anymore if you don’t have the blaster. We loved it with nerf guns but it no longer keeps score now. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-11-27, version 2.0.11* App doesn’t work ### 1/5 — Junk *2025-08-30, version 2.0.11* Do not buy! The app will NOT LET YOU CONTROL IT. I thought maybe I got a bad one so I bought another one. My daughter 10$ drone with remote control is much better. So sad because I was sooooo excited and so was my kids. ### 1/5 — Scam, App doesn’t work so gun doesn’t work. Refund asap. *2025-08-09* The app does not work & the gun does not “unlock” without the app. It says in the instructions that the gun & app need to be running simultaneously or else the gun locks back up, if you can get it unlock in the first place. This is a gel bullet blaster. Unfortunately, if you’re already reading this you’ve probably opened up the toy & now looking at this app. ### 1/5 — APP DOES NOT CONNECT *2025-07-20, version 2.0.11* When you try to connect your devices to it it puts an orange ring around the devices name not allowing you to do anything but play without device! Save your money and nerves. DONT BUY!!! ### 1/5 — Any tips? *2025-07-16, version 2.0.11* My Spectre gel blaster will not connect for the life of me! I downloaded the app, charged it, etc. It still wont connect. ### 1/5 — Waste of time *2025-07-13, version 2.0.11* My son was excited to get this toy, and quickly disappointed after the gun wont connect to the app despite following all the steps. Waste of time and money. Their website doesn’t even work. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — This was fun *2025-12-25* Worked really well. The controls worked great and was very fun to use the drone and fly around my house. The only problem I found was that sometimes the would freeze I would have to turn off and on my phone (ps if from won’t turn off hold the power button until the lights turn off) hope this was helpful! ### 5/5 — LOVE IT *2025-10-08, version 2.0.11* I got the faction havoc, fun, reliable, ease of use, AWESOME! ### 5/5 — I only bought the drone for the drone feature *2025-10-05* I only bought the drone for the drone feature and it works perfectly, the drone was cheep too. The app works fine for me and is easy to navigate. I do not know anything else about the guns or other miscellaneous items but what I bought works well for the price. ### 5/5 — Great gun! *2025-08-02* The guns themselves are very powerful and accurate. The app is a little janky but is manageable for me. I do find that needing to download the app before being able to use the gun is kind of lame tho ### 5/5 — Pretty awesome *2025-08-02* Out of the 5 different blasters I own this one is by far the most feared and powerful in my gel gun group. The app started out rough a long time ago but has improved a lot. THE HAVOC REAKS HAVOC. ### 5/5 — Works great *2025-07-30* Works great i don’t know why people don’t know how to use the app but I am only 11 and I figured it out ### 5/5 — READ THIS *2025-07-28* Ok, so I got this drone looking thing And I charged it, the directions said download this app so I did. Next thing you know I was unboxing it and I was actually really exited, I tried to connect this and it just wouldn’t go through. Anyone who is reading this DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THIS WHOLE COMPANY. I REPEAT DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THIS WHOLE COMPANY. ### 5/5 — Worked *2025-07-19* Worked idk what these people r saying ### 5/5 — Awesome Blasters! Good App *2025-02-21* Don’t Hestitate to Purchase, I have about 5 of these havoc rifles and 1 pistol type blaster and the drone and turret. This ecosystem is cool! I hope they don’t give up on it! Got all my blasters on sale all worked flawlessly all different retailers. Performance is amazing. Highly recommend Havoc. I think it’s the best gel blaster you can get for the money. ### 5/5 — This app is actually good *2025-02-02* I see a lot of hate on this app but you don’t even need it after you unlock your gun. I get no error messages, and I’m using this app on an old iPad. If you are capable of actually using technology, I definitely recommend this app and blaster. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
