Use this GPS-based app to position shooting targets at desired distances for recreational firearm, airsoft or archery training. A shooting bench can be set, and up to 10 targets can be defined. This app remembers your last target setup, which makes it easy to place targets in the same locations the next time you shoot. A table of target info and pop-up dialog boxes allow you to review target distances and elevation delta's. There is no limit set by this app for how far a target can be from the bench. Settings can be modified to choose satellite or standard Apple maps. In Settings you can also choose different icons for the bench, target and location arrow. This app will still work when it is out of WiFi reception range.
