### 5/5 — Pour les compétiteurs c’est parfait

*2026-07-04*

Sur les recommandations d’un membre du club
Je Ne M’en sers qu’au 25m mais l’appli est parfaite en tout bravo

### 4/5 — Shootwatch

*2026-05-14*

Pas mal comme pour s entraîner sans déranger tout le monde
Le bip n est pas assez fort même avec le son a fond

### 4/5 — Die Idee ist super, Ausführung nicht optimal

*2025-06-02*

Es gibt noch Verbesserungsbedarf und Luft nach oben. 
Vor Allem ist Unklar wann genau die Tonankündigung erfolgt. Außerdem werden offensichtlich nur Zwischenankündigungen angesagt, aber vom Ende der Gesamtzeit gerechnet. 
Bitte dringend nachbessern und/oder klarstellen wann was passiert.

Bin in der Zwischenzeit mit dem Entwickler in Kontakt, der offen für neue Ideen ist, wie zum Beispiel: Import/Export/Teilen, und auch sonst bemüht ist vorhandene Fehler zu lokalisieren und zu beheben.

**Developer response:** Ja, Zwischenansagen in benutzerdefinierten Wettbewerben werden wie bei allen ISSF-Wettbewerben am Ende der Phase festgelegt. Wenn Sie ein Problem haben, wenden Sie sich bitte direkt an mich, damit ich Ihnen helfen kann.

### 3/5 — very bad tone of speech

*2025-01-31, version 2.3.0*

the narrator speaks like a robot! it doesn't feel like real as it should be for a finals specially. it would be great if you provide trial version to check capabilities of app

### 5/5 — Muy adecuada para la práctica de pistola en modo Duelo y otros…

*2023-10-04*

Va muy bien, es muy completa y a la vez sencilla de usar. Además es configurable y puedes hacer modificaciones a tu gusto. Aunque es de pago es un pago único de sólo 2€. Y vale para iPhone, que cuesta encontrar! Gracias.

**Developer response:** Gracias por su comentario. Me alegro de que te guste la aplicación :-)

### 5/5 — Top!

*2023-02-21*

Je me sers très souvent de Shootwatch pour les séances d’entraînement au club mais aussi à la maison
C’est vraiment bien adapté à toutes les disciplines et on peut éventuellement aussi créer des événements personnalisés si on souhaite faire des séquences plus courtes ou tout autre choix.
Idéal pour moi, je n’ai pas trouvé plus pratique et plus fonctionnel donc je recommande vivement!

**Developer response:** Merci pour la review! Je suis content que Shootwatch vous soit utile :-)

### 5/5 — Inmejorable

*2022-06-20*

La uso siempre que voy a entrenar, gracias a ella conseguí ascender a licencia F Segunda categoría

**Developer response:** Enhorabuena por su licencia F Segunda categoría!

### 5/5 — Hervorragend!

*2021-08-22*

Die App enthält 29 vorprogrammierte Wettbewerbe, aber das Beste ist, dass man weitere Wettbewerbe beliebig (und ganz einfach) programmieren kann, inklusive beliebiger (!) Ansagen. 
Jetzt kann ich endlich Zeitserien auch ganz allein schießen mit den bei uns üblichen Ansagen.
Der geringe Betrag für die App hat sich wirklich gelohnt!

### 5/5 — Tempi per il tiro

*2021-03-09*

Sembra che vada bene. Chiara è comprensibile.

### 5/5 — Super schneller Support

*2021-01-31*

Tut was es soll. Es lassen sich auch leicht andere Bewerbe erstellen. Der Support bei Fehlern im Programm war super schnell.
