Par Timer Pro: Shooting Timer 17+

Quick and easy.

I’ve got all the training apps, paid & free. But this is the one I come back to most. Quick and simple. Easy GUI. Ample adjustments available without getting you bogged down in details that pull you away from training.

Note: This app only provides a metric by which to judge whether or not you are reaching specific objectives within a par time determined by you. Then allows you to crank up the heat, to challenge yourself to meet those goals a hair faster. It does that exceedingly well, but you will only get out of it what you put into it.

Not quite perfect

I just got the app but immediately noticed two obvious features that are missing: 1. It needs the option of configuring different tones for the START and STOP/PAR signal. When practicing something repeatedly without looking at the screen and just using audio cues, it is easy to get out of sync and mistakingly starting on the STOP/PAR signal because they sound the same. 2. It needs the option of disabling the screen lock so the phone doesn’t dim and then lock.

Update: Both features have been implemented. 👍

Both are fixed! We now have different start/stop tones and the screen lock is disabled during use. Thanks for the feedback, it was really helpful!

Very useful for at-home dry firing

The app does what it does well. The other par timer app on here that costs .99 doesn’t do as much. This has a repeat function and multiple standby times. Clean UI. I use it with a Rhino laser for first shot draws and it’s perfect for that purpose. I have one request though: it would be really useful to have a feature where I could go through the automatic start for a set amount of times. So I could know how many reps I’ve completed. UPDATE: the developers added a rep counter to the app, it works great!

Hey! We added a rep counter to the repeat feature in 1.5.0. Let us know what you think! 🤟
