Swaro… makes a good optic. Not a good app.
The ballistics settings for el range 32s are cancerous. Doesn’t save your progress no matter what. You click apply and it simply seems to just ignore your progress. So whenever you want to make a change or update you have to redo all of your settings for your door settings. Like most of the people having this app are 90% western hunters (I would assume) and want there maximum range for the table results to maybe be 1000 yards just for the option doesn’t matter when I set it to that it’ll fix its self to the standard 500. And for two the ballistics chart is diabolically inaccurate. I have my information copied and pasted to the exact quadruple checked and yet at 300 yards! Ot is off by 3 whole freaking clicks! Couldn’t even remember how bad it was at 1000 it is god awful. Swaro you got some work to do on the app. As of right now it is not user friendly and is a god awful app. Could be good. But it’s not

Needs Improvement
App does not have all of the available reticles (4W) sold for a particular model scope (Z5i 3.5-18x44mm BT). Disappointed.
Falls short
App is nice for the most part.
There is a disconnect between what I put my reticle as and what it shows under my Ballistic Profile. I have a Plex and it’s says I can only have a BRH.
Also when I fist set up a Ballistic Profile it showed me the BT “Ballistic Turret” settings for my red yellow and green turret settings and now the page is blank. Even when I create a new Ballistic Profile BT is still blank.
I like the app and the concept is great but it needs some more help.

Used to work great
Now it won’t even load
New version terrible
Have 3 Swarovski scopes and the new app version is terrible. Nothings correct. App was just fine before went backwards 20 years. DEI my guess.
No bow hunting feature?????
I have no idea why this developer would not have a bow hunting feature for such an amazing nap as this? This is the most amazing app for rifle hunting and can very easily be used all year around in various seasons. It’s very disappointing that it’s not easy to add a bowhunting option and something that should be remediated immediately.

App
Nice app but you can't adjust the yardage when you got to the BT table. The links are there but they don't work.
Quality
Word cannot describe how elegant, cool and easy to use app and scope is. Absolutely amazing and worth it. The app works fine and it’s easy to use. Well engineered!
New Update Not Opening
OMG just updated and now the app is not opening. I hope all my custom loads I manually entered are not lost.
Huge improvement
The ability to capture target coordinates and input them into OnX is amazing. Ballistics are spot on and trying function is much simpler than previous version.
Lost All Old Ballistics
Discovered a new app updated and lost all my Ballistics for both of my X5i scopes. When i try to create it doesn’t match up. Doesn’t show clicks as related to the turret on the scope like it was. You cannot see what the scope height is shown as. I thought when you do updates it supposed to get better not worse. The new app is useless to me now

Mapping Function Improved
The ability to share waypoints to other mapping software is a huge improvement in the tracking assist function. I like that the app will store more than 3 profiles now.
New update horrible!
Bring back the old version, lost all my stored data. Now I can’t calibrate the colored turret. Just lets me do additional distance. Nothing like the older version. This is definitely a let down and will not buy another one of these fine products till this is fixed or bring back the old version App..

Version 4 update
The app is an essential tool for a ballistic reticle (brh/brx). Would not leave home without it. WRT the Version 4 update:
Firstly, the remarks from the developer indicate that all ballistics (scope height, hand load etc) will be retained from the previous version…they are not.
Secondly, the font on the reticle view on an iPad is ridiculous…utterly useless.
Finally, the ability to set imperial/metric is better than default to regional device settings (which was brutal) it is still very clumsy. You can set the scope to metric for a metric range, but zero distance for ammo profile remains in yards.

Updated app doesn’t support/ list their scopes!!
I have a Z3 BT and loved it and the app for being able to easily dial in yardage. I just bought a Z5 because of this and now found out the app was updated so not only did I lose all my previous data, the Z5 BT (not the i) is not even listed in the app. Absolutely disgusted after spending $1,500 on a scope and now it’s not even in the app. Bring back the older app so we can use it, or quit selling scopes your not going to have in the app. Definitely going to convert to Leupold after this!!

Swaro app
Was better before the update
It’s ok
This would be my only ballistic calculator app if you could save favorites and settings.
Great app but!
Great app, especially when your away from an internet connection for last minute ballistics check or adjustment.
BUT NEEDS an option for unit selection.

Won’t let you change
App will not give an option for changing from metric to imperial measurements, it tells me I can change it in the language setting but it won’t give a language option either.
Swarovski Z5 2.4x12-50
I have (2) of these scopes, first one is about about 3 years old and I am still waiting for Swarovski to add it to the app! I have emailed the international office over a year ago with no response. Irony I can use the internet version of the app as the scope is on there. Now I love the scope so I am not knocking it at all but how hard can it be to add this scope to the app? I see the last update was only 2 months ago so it is clearly being updated so …..?
