### 3/5 — Could use more customizability

*2023-02-02, version 3.1*

This app is amazing but I wish that I could customize the start time a little more. I like to have the randomized time between the starts, but it always waits too long. I wish I could set a range from 1.2 to 2 seconds, instead of having the wide range of 1.5 to 2.5

### 1/5 — Sounds no longer work

*2021-02-14, version 3.0.2*

The start gun and countdown sounds no longer work. This app is broken.

**Developer response:** We are sorry that you're having trouble. Thank you for your feedback! If your sound is on and turned up and the sound is still not working, please let us know what iPhone version you are using Startgun with and we will work to remedy the issue immediately.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2019-12-02, version 2.0*

This app is perfect for trying to get my start time down when practicing getting out of the blocks. 

Great for young sprinters or distance runners!
