### 1/5 — Senseless

*2024-09-18*

Does not work without iPhone.
Why not use mic and speaker on the watch???

### 4/5 — Buy the real thing

*2020-02-22, version 1.3.0*

This app dose not work waste of money and time it’s to bad really 😔

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2020-01-09, version 1.3.0*

Terrible

### 1/5 — I'm not sure this is stable right now

*2019-10-28, version 1.3.0*

This only Clint's the first shot and no matter what I do it's not helping me. I do better without it.

### 1/5 — Got it

*2019-09-21, version 1.3.0*

If you’re going to prompt for a review on every click from the moment you open the app, you get one star.

### 2/5 — It’s just ok

*2019-05-17, version 1.3.0*

I downloaded this app because it seemed like an awesome idea to use the power of the iwatch’s accelerometer.  This made it a great substitute for the Mantis x that goes for $150.  Furthermore, another reviewer mentioned he used it in conjunction with airsoft which is a training method I use as well.  

But the app was a disappointment.  My setup consist of:

-Elite Force/Umarex officially licensed Glock 17
-iPhone 10XR
-iWatch Series 4

Pros:
-easily accessible start button on iWatch
-good random delay start for holster draw
-Very easy setup and intuitive app
-great setting for various training sessions
-great pricing (if it worked)

Cons:
-Doesn’t consistently register shots
-registers multiple shots when only one shot
-There isn’t a library of coaching lessons as advertised (or At least I couldn’t find them)
-Doesn’t work consistently enough
-Doesn’t give you any insight as to what you can be doing wrong

I think it is a great idea, if it consistently worked and if it really harnessed the power of iPhone and iWatch.  Perhaps, they should talk to the Mantis X developers to develop a conjunction technology that uses the power of Apple tech.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work.

*2019-03-22, version 1.1.2*

All I get is Tap to Start , then Success. Tap again and nothing happens!

### 5/5 — Great timer.

*2019-03-01, version 1.1.2*

The app allows you to your draw from concealment and fire time.   Fun tool at the range.   
It would be very cool to allow access the camera and record the target hits.   
Thank you for developing this app.

### 5/5 — Well worth the money

*2018-11-23, version 1.0.2*

Shooting is expensive... to budget, I train extensively with an airsoft pistol built to match my match pistol.  I can then train iny basement nearly every single aspect of my game minus recoil management.  Here's where Shot Trainer comes in... this is THE ONLY shot timer which picks up the airsoft shots (I've tried multiple others and still continue to use my Pocket Pro II outside on the range).  Thanks to the Shot Trainer though, Im able to receive accurate feedback iny own basement!  Great product team!

### 1/5 — Not all that accurate

*2018-11-07*

Tried it during a PSG session and none of the stats were anywhere near accurate. Also the lag between pressing start and starting lost me a second or two.
