### 2/5 — Needs update

*2021-02-14, version 4.08*

I can connect and play some games but often the app will just shutdown randomly.

### 2/5 — Crash

*2021-01-31, version 4.08*

Get just about done with a game and it crashes. Has happened 4 games in a row now. If they fixed this it would get a 5 star rating

### 2/5 — It would be nice if it could fat bull setting.

*2020-10-23, version 4.08*

I need to setting the score of single bull as 50 points.

### 2/5 — Please update app!

*2020-04-11, version 4.08*

This would be nice if more than four players could play. It would also be nice if you could have more than one player online. Me and my husband wanted to play with our friends who also got the dart board, but it will only allow us to play one player online (no option to select one more player online) and it wouldn’t allow more than one phone to join the dartboard.

### 1/5 — Needs Bluetooth fixed

*2020-03-25, version 4.08*

Just got in mail today. Glad I did not pay for this board because it connected to Bluetooth once then won’t connect with board again like it gets stuck. Fix the problem

### 1/5 — Bs!

*2020-03-14, version 3.13*

The old update supports my IPad(4th gen) but the new one supports all but 4th gen iPads I will up my stars if and when this is fixed!!! This is Crap. Everyone should be able to play this without having to buy new devices every update, FIX this issue!

### 1/5 — Junk

*2020-01-05, version 4.07*

Glad this was a white elephant Xmas gift because it won’t connect to the app so it’s trash.

### 1/5 — Update

*2018-06-15, version 2.0*

Please update with sound for every dart thrown. Provide more effects to the game. Provide larger screen for the points and cricket.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2022-05-15, version 4.08*

Would be nice if you could actually finish a game before the whole app crashes and loses everything. Seems like developers that don’t care about their work. Overall disappointing. 0/10

### 1/5 — Was good at one time

*2021-09-04, version 4.08*

This app was great when I first got my dart board then they did a update and took out what makes Bluetooth darts fun the sounds (bullseye,double bullseye,triple and single even low ton this is the biggest reason people enjoy e-darts

### 1/5 — Doesn’t stay connected

*2021-08-04, version 4.08*

I wasted my money on this board, the app lets you get 2/3rds of the way through a game then disconnects.  Get yourself a pencil and paper it’s more reliable

### 1/5 — App crashes

*2021-03-15, version 4.08*

This is a great dartboard and app if the app worked. The dartboard is useless if the app doesn’t work can you please fix it.

### 1/5 — Worst app ever

*2021-02-13, version 4.08*

This app is terrible. I got the Viper Vtooth1000 .I have an IPhone 10 logged in started playing kicked me out after hitting the bullseye. I changed the batteries and still same thing. If it does let you get to the end of a game it will kick you out before you get your stats. I’m extremely disappointed in this dartboard and app. Viper needs to fix this problem maybe I would give it a better rating

### 1/5 — App keeps closing during Game in progress

*2021-01-27, version 4.08*

App and Board appeared to be a nice setup, but 4 of 6 games the app closed out while the game was in progress resulted in game progress being lost. This is extremely frustrating when you invest the time into the game without getting the expected end result 66% of the time. It has made me want to return the board because the app is defective!

### 1/5 — Poorly programmed

*2021-01-22, version 4.08*

This app will shutdown after the “Three in the bed” screeen.

### 1/5 — Any time there’s an animation on the screen, it crashes

*2020-12-08, version 4.08*

Anytime there’s a bullseye or any other animation, the app crashes. It’s completely unusable. Multiple devices. Same result. 

Fix this.

### 1/5 — 301  crashes

*2020-11-26, version 4.08*

Can’t get through any 01 games without the app crashing

### 1/5 — Terrible Bluetooth connection

*2020-05-10, version 4.08*

My connectivity level is around 10% working and 90% not working... 

I hate that it loses connection to the board everytime you switch up games... 

Almost no one is online playing... a random person or two on a Friday night on occasion.

No way to play with any friends or coordinate a match with someone.

### 5/5 — New app great...

*2019-03-02, version 3.13*

The new app is great please fix standard cricket to say winner! All other games do it!
For others the next player is a reset push until it displays three lines per GLD
Please add Shanghai and round the clock 
Also a link to speak directly to developer would be great, many ideas could help!?

Just thought about it, also a way to offload all scores would help to keep a permanent record!
Keep up the great work and the updates coming.

### 5/5 — I love it 90% of the time

*2017-02-01, version 1.5*

When an update to fix the connectivity issue is released I will update my rating to 5 stars.

The app mostly works well. 90% of the time it connects without any issue. That other 10% can cause a little frustration. When it won't connect it seems to get stuck in a loop where the board thinks it is still playing a game but the app has stopped the game. I found unplugging the batteries, completely closing the app, plugging my the batteries back in, and restarting the app fixes the issue. Talked with a couple of people at the company who make the app and they were all helpful. They said they are aware of the issue and working to resolve.

### 4/5 — Great Start

*2019-01-15, version 2.0*

Only used once so far, but it worked great for a game of Cricket!  It instantly connected to my old ipad mini with no problems.
I wish it had Around the World and a few other random dart games.  The interface is clean, but not amazing.

### 4/5 — Pretty Cool... until the 3rd Round

*2016-12-03, version 1.5*

So, it works pretty cool keeping score and talking, until you get to the 3rd round (leg) then the voice stops. Also, if you play single games, after every game you have to turn the dart board off and back on to reconnect for another game. It disconnects too often to get 5 stars. Otherwise we love the app and not having to keep score on our '01 games.
Our latest issue is it was discovering characteristics and refused to reset the board after turning it off and closing the app and starting over, it still showed the last dart thrown on the board score. I throw darts weekly in a league so having this at home is a great practice board, maybe just tweak the app for issues.

### 3/5 — Great but crashes every game.

*2021-01-13, version 4.08*

Please fix this ASAP

### 3/5 — Scoring

*2019-12-10, version 3.13*

Not sure if there is a way to get MPR scoring for cricket instead of PPD?? It Makes no sense to track PPD in cricket when it is normally tracked by marks per round.

### 3/5 — Why does Bluetooth disconnect after every game???

*2019-02-17, version 3.13*

This app is ok, but it’s so annoying how the Bluetooth disconnects after every game and then has to reconnect, and most times it has a difficult time reconnecting. I have to power off then power on the dartboard for it to connect again. Please fix this!!

### 3/5 — Has potential, buts needs some work

*2018-02-10, version 2.0*

95% of this apps works well but the last 5% can be aggravating. Have not had connection problems that others have mentioned. I did notice that when app is looking for a device it will not connect until next player is pressed on the board, but this seems to work consistently well. The addition of bounce out and miss buttons on the app is a nice addition for the latest version but functionality is not there for a bounce out that resulted in a bust. Pressing bounce out at this time does nothing. My most significant frustration is that there is no way to correct a score. Not uncommonly, a dart will hit the back of another dart, registering a score value for the stationary dart while landing in a different value. There needs to be a way select an individual dart score and change it before moving to the next player.

### 3/5 — I like it, needs a little work

*2017-12-28, version 1.5*

Having troubles choosing the players I created to go in the order I want. It just won’t let me choose some players sometimes. And maybe enlarge the players names. The score display is a little small being I want to set my ipad near the dart board. The picture of the dart board on the right side of the screen is not as important as seeing the cricket scores and players names with ease. Would appreciate these updates. Thanks!

### 3/5 — Not bad, but...

*2017-05-27, version 1.5*

So most of the time, this app works great. But, after playing a couple games, the sound will turn off. Then it will randomly crash in the middle of a game. So after every two games, we have to shut the app down and restart. Otherwise, it works well. Just wish more games would be added and maybe online play.
