TargetAce is an archery companion for archers of every level and their clubs. Score every arrow, see your handicap and classification after every round, and compete with your club, all in one app that works offline. SCORE EVERY ROUND Tap the arrows on the target, with a magnifier for line cutters, or use the keypad. Every Archery GB and World Archery round is there: imperial, metric, Worcester, indoor and outdoor, plus field rounds on the field face (pick the target your group starts on) and clout. Sighters, a reminder of your sight mark when you walk up a distance, the right face at every distance, a shooting timer, and ends you can edit afterwards. TARGET CAPTAIN Score a whole target of archers on one phone, then share signed PDF scoresheets. Export everything to CSV. TRACK YOUR PROGRESS Your Archery GB 2026 handicap and classification after every round, including field classifications, or your World Archery award and ten national award schemes. Personal bests per bow style, season progress, badges, group analysis, and a short "what stood out" after each round. ON YOUR HOME SCREEN Widgets show your last round, your best and your arrows this week. On iPhone, the round you're shooting is on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island.

Turn a scorecard into a practice you can learn from. ArcherScore brings arrow-by-arrow scoring, two-stage rounds and a personal range journal together on iPhone and iPad. Start with a 300, 600 or WA 720 preset, or build your own format. SCORE EVERY ARROW Record 10-zone scores with separate X counts and misses. Undo an entry, correct an earlier end and return to an unfinished round. Custom formats support up to 12 arrows per end. SEE BOTH STAGES Score a 720-point round as two 360-point stages. Follow each stage separately while keeping the combined total in view. Compare equally sized stages once both are complete. PRACTICE WITH A PURPOSE Set a score goal and see what remains achievable from your recorded arrows. Keep your focus, range conditions and the adjustment between stages with the session. FIND WHAT WORKED Search your scorebook by round, bow, focus or notes. Filter completed and unfinished rounds, review trends and keep bow setup, arrow and sight notes close at hand. PRACTICE TOGETHER Name your scorecards. With Pro, score for two to eight archers on one shared iPhone or iPad, switch between separate scorecards and export standings with every archer’s detailed PDF. Group sessions work offline; they are not online multiplayer. MORE WITH ARCHERSCORE PRO Keep unlimited rounds, create reusable practice templates, use a pauseable end timer, and export PDF scorecards or CSV data. PDF reports include stage totals and your practice notes. Preview a complete sample for free before buying, and find your reports under Settings > Scorecards (PDF). The timer is a practice aid; always follow the range officer and range signals. New users can keep one round free. Deleting it frees that slot. Pro is available through monthly or yearly subscriptions, or a one-time Lifetime purchase. Existing Lifetime owners can restore their purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel in Apple account subscription settings. Prices and any eligible introductory offer are shown before purchase.
