Very useful to learn & practice.

I’m just learning how to properly use Mil dots & MOA adjustments. This app is great for that. It’s simple to use, has a mode you can practise ranging in, plus you can choose between 1st & second focal plane scopes. I’m wondering if some of the negative reviews are from people thinking this is a shooting game. It isn’t. Would be cool if there was a mode to check you ranging, by taking the shot, but it does what it needs to now.

How do I delete your app?

I have been trying to get rid of this app, and all it will allow me to do is MAKE A REFERRAL TO SOMEONE ELSE? It has to go because I don’t trust an Application that embeds itself in my equipment and makes itself an unwanted guest! This App is screwing my I phone up!

Range Formula

Good app, except for the range formula. It is a preset and cannot be modified to a specific scope value. It uses a 1000 factor; whereas my scope formula uses 700, thus, range distance is far off! I'd love this app if Range formula could be adjustable.

Useless on account of incompatibility.

The title says it all. On my iPhone X i cannot see what magnification the scope is at and therefore i cant change it either. This renders the entire app useless to me since i cant get an exact mil dot correction.
