ArrowNotes vs GoldFokus

ArrowNotes was built from real-world practice – out of the need for an app that lets you record arrows quickly, without distractions, and without rigid constraints. Whether in training or competition, a few seconds after each end should be enough to capture your results and refocus on shooting. That is exactly what ArrowNotes is designed for. The app deliberately avoids unnecessary complexity while providing a solid foundation for evaluation, analysis, and structure. Many features are already available, with more being added step by step – all with the goal of turning ArrowNotes into a powerful yet clear and focused companion app for archers over the long term. The free version of ArrowNotes is fully functional and includes all essential features for recording and analyzing training sessions and competitions – no subscription, no recurring costs.
