## What is G?

The G-Sight Laser Training Pro Mobile Application takes dry-fire training to the next level, allowing you to safely train when you can't get to the shooting range. This app will record your laser shots so you can review your performance and improve your technique. It requires no special targets; use your favorite paper targets. 

After making absolutely sure firearms are unloaded and no live ammo is in your training area, align the target edges as closely as possible to the screen edges and press start. The app will automatically calibrate. Return to your shooting position and begin training. When your session is complete you can review all your shots by swiping right or left. Press the “Train Again” button to restart your training. Sessions are up to 5 minutes long.

Tips:
-Use an iPhone 5C or newer. Older devices may not be powerful enough. If you see a black screen, when trying to set up, your device may be too slow to use it.
-Suggest you run a “Test Setup” before starting. It will let you know if there’s any potential issues.
 -Avoid bright light, especially sunlight on or near the target. If you see large patches of light reflecting off the target in your phone screen, you may encounter detection issues. 
-Avoid using damaged targets. Creases on the target, or on the edges of the target may reflect light as well. The target on the back of older user manuals will likely give problems.
-Avoid having shiny targets or shiny objects, especially tape on or near the target.
-Avoid having constantly changing lighting such as shadows  on or near the target.
 -Avoid shaking the phone/target while in a session.
-Phone should be placed within a yard of the target.

For best performance performance, this app is intended for use with G-Sight branded ELMS and Gen 2 training lasers only. It may work with others without guarantee.

### 2/5 — Not great

*2026-03-24, version 2.0.4*

Giving it some credit, it’s simple to use even the free versions. But in most lighting it misses shots, doesn’t work well at angles, and the interface does not track historical data/ allow removal of guns.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-01-29, version 2.0.4*

Unfortunately this version does not track shots well at all. There are no setting adjustments available to make it any better.

### 1/5 — Not affiliated with G-sight company!

*2024-02-17, version 2.0.4*

I used this app back in 2021 when I got my G-Sight cartridge and then I realized my shots weren’t registering last year in 2023. Then I downloaded the G-Sight 2023 app which worked way better but didn’t have the same features. 

I sent an email to G-Sight customer service and they said this app is not affiliated with their company! Don’t download this app or spend your money it doesn’t work.

### 5/5 — Great App and awesome targeting system

*2023-02-10, version 2.0.4*

I have read all the reviews and I’m making the leap to pick this system up for my firearms training. I highly recommend it to everyone as a beginner or expert!

### 1/5 — App crashes constantly

*2023-02-01, version 2.0.4*

I’ve closed all other apps on my iPhone 13 Pro and it still can’t function without crashing right before I review my results. Going to return this and all the add-ons I bought in the app. Ridiculous

### 1/5 — Shot tracking

*2023-01-21, version 2.0.4*

Rated only 2 stars because the shot tracking has been dorked back up in the app update. Works great sometimes and not at all other times. Lighting is perfect, tried several different targets including a G-Sight target. Which, can we make a bundle pack for the targets that isn’t over priced for the paper it’s printed and shipped on? Lastly, charging for each feature in the app is good, but at $5/feature seems extremely over priced for dry firing practice.

### 1/5 — Bad tracking

*2023-01-12, version 2.0.4*

In training you get 14 shots. This app only recognizes about 5 shots out of about 30 I took. At least it’s free but pretty much useless. The target is in a well lit place with no glares. No reason for the app to be this disappointing

### 3/5 — Purchasing Error

*2023-01-05, version 2.0.4*

If you try to purchase Laser Training Unlimited, it shows you are purchasing Trigger Pull(which is not available yet) & even after it successfully accepts your payment, you are left with no new mode & -$5. Otherwise, it is a good app- decent setting customization for good dry fire practice

### 2/5 — G-sight

*2022-11-10, version 2.0.4*

Extra cap didn’t fit, didn’t realize I had to buy the other targets. I’d say it’s a average.  I am a NRA pistol instructor and purchased this to see if I should by all the calibers and use them in classes but for the price and what you get .. really it’s not with it. There are others out there that do the same basic thing for much cheaper.

### 1/5 — Not recording shots

*2022-10-30, version 2.0.4*

When I first got this product. It worked perfect. Had hours of great training. Months ago, and randomly, the app stopped tracking my shots completely. Now it only picks up the first shot regardless of how many I take. After reading other reviews, I am not the only one with this problem. the company needs to step up and fix this. I hope to give a good review after this issue is resolved.
