Cool… But Problem Using a SIRT
This is a nice, basic dryfire tool. However, when using a SIRT’s take-up laser, it counts it as a shot. I’m not surprised but it kind of negates the purpose of using that function of the SIRT while using this app. That is, unless I’m missing some sort of setting that I don’t know about 🤷🏼♂️
Simple and awesome
Stuck five black dots on an off-white, eggshell wall with normal interior lighting. Worked brilliantly from the getgo. Had the camera about six feet away from the target (on a counter a couple feet to the right), hit Start, walked to the other end of the hall (~30 feet) and fired away. Super Cool. No idea what the bad reviews are about. And this is using an old iPhone SE, hardly state of the art. We’ll see how it translates to the range but this is pretty fun. Lasers are cool and a LOT less expensive than rounds at the moment. Just gotta git me one of them 200w laser bazookas. ;-) The app is well worth the money.
Feature request: let the user define the center of the target and how far away other parts of the target are (in my case four dots up/down/R/L from center dot). Would let the app do basic shot analysis... eg how many shots were x inches away, do you consistently pull your first shot, etc
Also, have different colors for each shot. Make it easier to see at a glance where your first, 2nd, 3rd, etc shot placed.

Review
I downloaded it and hit start.
The thing is recording several shots like a demo. It ignores my shots entirely

Quality tool
This app performs exactly as described. Drop any laser cartridge in the chamber. Put your phone on a tripod and point it at a spot on the wall. Push start and draw at the buzzer. Dry fire isn’t fun, but it’s hugely beneficial. This app makes it more productive.
Records shots I am not making
I downloaded this app on 4/15/2020. I also just purchased a SIRT and targeting system from iDryfire. I purchased these to enhance my own shooting and that of my firearms students.
Both the App and Computer software records shots that I am not taking. Example: I am standing out of view of the camera, it starts, the. Before I move, “bang, bang, bang, bang” and shots showing on screen. I never pulled the trigger. When I do shoot, I shoot twice and it records several more shots.
Also, I like many others, do not live or train in outer space. Being told “your background is to light” by the app developers or novice shooters who bought this as a game is laughable. I am a former US Army Special Forces operator who is now a full time firearms instructor. This is not a useful training tool if it requires specific studio settings or a dark room. I should not have to find a room with black painted walls and turn off all the lights for this to work properly, especially for $13.00 USD and especially after paying $375 for the iDryfire gun and laser targeting system. The inability of this app to function in normal settings should be advertised.
One last thing, how about some feedback other than “update and consider changing your review”
