Review summary

Range Buddy is valued for its shooting tracking and calculation features, appealing to range users who want detailed insights. However, users face issues with a clunky and unintuitive interface that requires a learning curve, instability and crashes after recent updates or with newer Android versions, and the loss of historical data. Community-requested improvements include better statistics, rifle/ammo lists, and smoother navigation. Developer responsiveness and external tutorials help mitigate some usability challenges.

Pros

Great for tracking shooting performance and precise calculations of group size and scope adjustments.
Stable and functional once learned; useful for rifle shooting and gives mean radius measurements.
Developer responsive and helpful with issues.
Offers great features that appeal to range users wanting detailed shot tracking.
Availability of external tutorials aids in understanding and using the app effectively.

Cons

Recent updates caused loss of historical data, frustrating users.
User interface is clunky, not intuitive, and requires learning curve.
App experiences crashes and bugs on newer Android versions, leading to instability.
Lacks certain features like statistics (e.g., CEP calculation) and lists for rifles and ammunition.
Navigation issues with Android gestures and some confusing button labels and unclear icons.

2025-09-23	Pa*****	There is absolutely no support of this app whatsoever. I tried to contact them through their web page on several occasions, and I was totally 100% ignored. The only reason I give them a one star rating is because zero is not available. Load this app at your own risk because it is absolutely not supported!

2025-09-13	Ja*****	The app works as aversive but getting use to how to use the functions is difficult and the icons are not very intuitive. Once you mess with it a few ti.es you'll get the hang of it. However I've yet to figure out how to export an image file, so I've been saving the target, then you have to go back and take a screenshot.

2024-09-23	Ig*****	It worked OK before but got broken recently. Large circles are placed on the target once you mark the impact hole. My guess it is not painting the small impact overlay circle correctly. I'm happy to help developers fix the problem if they share the code. As is, it is no longer usable.

2024-04-14	S *****	The app is stable and the idea of using photos, scaling and marking groups is great, but I would suggest some statistics are incorporated in future versions. I would like to see a CEP calculation; a group size in itself is useless. A 40-hole group will be much larger than a 3-hole 'group' from the same rifle, for example, but it allows extracting a lot more information about your rifle, if you analyse it properly. This app has a lot of potential, please look into statistics!

2024-02-29	He*****	This app seems totally wrecked. Lots of bugs and no longer works with the newest update. Probably a ditched project. Range diary markings mix up, weird settings with no support for native back press, etc. Still the best tool as it gives mean radius.
