SnipeLog is a precision-shooting tracker built for sport shooters, hunters, competitive marksmen, law-enforcement, and military personnel who take their range time seriously. Log every session. Analyze every group. Build a private record of how you're really shooting — across weapons, optics, loads, drills, and conditions. FEATURES • Live session mode — log shots in real time with distance, hit/miss, and miss-cause critique. Designed for the firing line. • Quick session entry — retroactive logging for sessions you didn't track shot-by-shot. • Target analyzer — tap each hole on a photo of your target to compute group size and MOA spread automatically. • Gear vault — track weapons, optics, ammunition, drills, and named loadouts. Attach reference photos. Every shot logs against the loadout you used. • Performance analytics — per-weapon lifetime stats. Last fired, best session, hit rate, group history. • Drill library — built-in drills plus your own custom drills with reference photos. • Multi-shooter profiles — one account, multiple shooters (great for families, instructors, and teams). • Teams — admin-provisioned with seat limits and invite codes. Commander vs. viewer roles. • PDF exports — single-session, date-range, or full-team reports. • Audit history — every session edit recorded with a human-readable diff. • Offline-aware — keep logging without signal; everything syncs when you reconnect. • Light + dark themes with a brass/gunmetal palette built for outdoor visibility. SECURE BY DESIGN Your data lives in your account. Firestore security rules scope your sessions to you. Teams only see what they're authorized to see. Photos stay on your device. No advertising. No tracking. No sale of data. Sign in with email + password, Google, or Apple — whichever you prefer. Account deletion is one tap away from Settings.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: SnipeLog at fortnightly against Paint Play's every 7 months. SnipeLog also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
