Our idea is to create a new, revolutionary, relevant to today training system of the highest level athletes. . We were able to create easy to use and at the same time an innovative system of smart targets designed to develop all shooting and tactical skills: Reaction, accuracy, endurance, memory, coordination and tactical knowledge Now you do not need to measure your shooting indicators manually! Beep Target will calculate reaction time, amount of hits, total exercise time and displays the result online on your phone and shows your place in the world rankings. Beep target is a versatile system that is suitable for training with firearms, paintballs, strikeballs and metal weapons. Just select the right target type (link to how it works). Improve your skills using sophisticated modes scenarios embedded in the application and win. Beep target - champs win. How it works Beep target is a smart training system with wireless radio system between targets and bluetooth phone tethering technology. Thanks to the amplified signal, the target can be placed up to 1000m from the main control unit and the control unit up to 10m from the phone. The results are displayed in the software on your mobile device. Thanks to the latest technologies, the response from the target to the phone lasts with a delay of 0.1s, and the accuracy of measuring the reaction with an error of up to 0.001s. This allows you to measure your results with the highest precision! Beep Target sensors have been tested with paintball, strikeball weapons and firearms using different types of targets.

Dry Fire Pro turns your iPhone into a shot timer that actually hears your dry-fire shots — and now an aim trainer that sees your muzzle move. Tap start, hear the beep, draw and press — on-device machine learning detects your trigger click and measures your reaction time, splits, and consistency. Then Aim mode measures the other half: how far your muzzle moves as you break the shot, and why. No extra hardware, no ammo, no range fees. Just training. NEW — AIM MODE • Put a small sticker on your muzzle — or print our free 3D muzzle mount — prop up the phone, and the front camera measures your muzzle movement on every press. • Aim reads the direction your reps drift and names the fault — jerking, anticipating, heeling, too much finger — with the fix and a drill that trains it. • Estimated impact shows where that press would have landed on a target at your distance. • Hands-free: say "go" to start the next rep. Metric or imperial — your choice. TRAINED ON YOUR GUN • My Firearm: a guided setup records a few trigger clicks and trains a personal detection model on your exact firearm — sharper detection, tuned to you, all on-device. BUILD THE HABIT • Training calendar: a dot on HQ for every day you've trained — deeper red, more drills. Swipe through weeks or open the month view. • Training reminders: pick your days and get a nudge that keeps the streak alive. Why Dry Fire Pro? • A par timer that listens: unlike blind beep timers, it knows when you shot — and shows you the numbers. • Speed and accuracy: reaction times and splits from Drills, measured muzzle movement from Aim — both halves of shooting, in one app. • Built for drills: start from polished presets, tailor everything in the Drill Tweaker, or design your own in the Drill Builder. • Clear feedback: minimal UI, monospaced timing, and a dark design with red accents that's easy on the eyes. • Community driven: feature tweaks ship fast based on shooter feedback, so the app keeps improving with every release. Key Features: • ML Shot Detection: low-latency, on-device detection of dry-fire clicks (no cloud). • My Firearm: a personal detection model trained on your own trigger sound. • Aim Mode: camera-measured muzzle movement, named trigger faults, and estimated downrange impact. • Training HQ: streaks, training calendar, weekly volume, reaction-time trends, and your full session history. • Training Reminders: local notifications on the days you choose — nothing leaves your phone. • Drill Builder: create fully custom drills with your own timing, actions, and flow. • Drill Tweaker: random standby (min/max), loop mode, voice commands, beep variants, flashlight signals. • Drill Presets & Catalog: a growing set of presets by difficulty — star your favorites. • Timing & Splits: reaction times, splits, and averages for steady progress. • Privacy-First: no accounts, no trackers; audio and camera never leave your device. WHO IT'S FOR • Concealed carry holders keeping their draw sharp between range visits • USPSA / IDPA competitors working on reaction time and splits • Anyone building trigger control at home — safely, with an unloaded firearm FREE VS PREMIUM • Free, forever: the ML shot timer, starter drills, Aim's movement measurement, HQ stats, streaks, calendar and reminders. • Premium: the full drill library (Speed & Chaos tiers), Aim coaching — the fix for your named fault, the drill that trains it, and the estimated downrange impact — plus unlimited custom drills. • Pay monthly, yearly, or once — lifetime access with a single purchase. Safety first: Dry Fire Pro is intended solely for dry-fire practice. Always verify your firearm is unloaded and follow all firearm safety rules. Terms of use: https://dryfirepro.com/terms-of-use/
