### 5/5 — SBC Ballistics App

*2026-08-01*

This app is brilliant and so easy to use. If you have bullet data and your scope is listed in the app this will become your favourite shooting app. It shows you what you’ll see through your scope and where to place the target on the reticle image…..ive tested it and it works perfectly. 10 out of 10 👍

### 1/5 — WTF

*2026-05-28, version 5.8*

So I pay to get the app only to discover MY scope is “in development “ and not available. Maybe they could have MENTIONED THAT  . Pi$$ed off . They better reared it me card.

### 4/5 — Great until it wasn’t.

*2026-05-22, version 5.8*

Having the same issue as others with it crashing on launch.  Worked previously, but I was hoping to get some use out of the app since I’ll be shooting out to 1,000yds this weekend.  Oh well.

Edit: I uninstalled then reinstalled the app, and it seems to be working as expected for the moment.

### 1/5 — Won’t open anymore.

*2026-05-16, version 5.8*

App is terrific but it doesn’t open anymore.

### 1/5 — App Doesn’t Work

*2026-05-06, version 5.8*

This app doesn’t not run on the iPhone 17 Pro Max. It quits every time as it is loading up.

### 5/5 — Spot on

*2026-04-04, version 5.8*

I got this app while I was at the range. Forgot my IPad with my information on it. Fired two shots with the chronograph. Entered the info and it was spot on the target at 500 yards. Can’t complain for that. Will be keeping it.

### 1/5 — no work to iphone 15 pro max

*2026-03-06, version 5.8*

no work to iphone 15 pro max

### 4/5 — App won’t open anymore

*2026-02-13, version 5.8*

I love this app very much but it won’t open for me anymore. It does the initial loading screen and then just closes. Tried deleting and reinstalling, it open the first time but after that it won’t open. I’m on version 5.8 if that’s helpful in any way. Other than this problem I’ve loved the app, just a bummer.

### 1/5 — Crash when you filled all required info

*2026-01-22, version 5.8*

It won’t open again when everything is filled

### 5/5 — Pretty dang close

*2026-01-11, version 5.8*

It’s pretty dang close out to a grand. You just kinda have to play with the app some to figure it out then it works nicely.
