I have found the timer and app to be easy to use and set up. The manual is simple, but so far has answered all my questions. Although you also need to use a phone or tablet with this timer, having a larger screen makes it so much easier to review your strings of fire versus using a small LCD screen. Overall I would give it 4 1/2 stars. The only reason it didn’t get 5 stars is occasionally the app would not save a particular string of fire and being able to save data is so incredibly helpful for when you forget your log book. If I could make 1 recommendation (to satisfy my OCD) it would be to have the ability to delete 1 particular string of fire so, for example, a malfunction would not eschew your data. If you don’t have a shot timer or would like a Bluetooth connected timer, I highly recommend the Range Tech timer.

RangeTech does everything my timer costing 2X does—but better—plus much more. Older reviews may have accurately reflected the product at that time but the current version is an evolutionary step in shot timers. (Note: you must have a RangeTech timer for the app to work properly.) A new version of the hardware was released at the end of 2019: It connects to the phone via Bluetooth not the phono jack. The timer ‘hardware’ issues the tone and detects the shots. Your phone/this app controls settings and records and stores data. The app is intuitive and stable. An app review isn’t the place to review all the cool features, but 5 stars.

I have tried many other shot timers and apps out there. Many are good and have their strengths. The RangeTech shot timer and app are phenomenal! They bring the idea of a shot timer into the 21st century whereas most other products are still stuck in 1999. Bluetooth connectivity, saved data in the cloud, attaching photos to data strings, a nice big intuitive display to view times and splits...it is the most innovative shot timer product on the market.

This is a fantastic updated version of the older model that really shines at the range with live fire or at home with dry fire. Pair this with a MantisX and you can micro manage every aspect of your firearm draw, presentation and trigger press.The Bluetooth connectivity is awesome and keeps the clutter down at the range/start table.I’ve used other shot timers and I feel this pulls the very best of each timer into one markedly smaller form factor.
