Been loving my new EL Ranges and the built in software has been fantastic!
My only gripe and weak point has been this app. A few things I would like added is the ability to add your own rifle scope (non-Swarovski) and the ability to change your zero measurements from Meters or Yards. These are minuscule changes but would improve the user’s experience.
Ultimately it’s the apps dependability that is the issue.
I have a hunt in 2 days so I went into create a new profile for a new load and I can’t create it because every time I try to add a scope the list is blank; this makes it impossible to create the new profile as a scope selection”is required” so now I am stuck with a pair of $3.5k binoculars with their primary function neutered by an app…
Please fix ASAP as I now have to carry my old kestrel until this is fixed!

Need to be able to turn off auto brightness
Per the title. The older version EL Range binos allowed the user to turn off the auto brightness for the bino display - via the bino menus. Meaning the user could adjust the brightness of the display manually and it would stay at that brightness. The new version EL with tracking binos dont have that option anymore in the bino menus. And the app which can adjust the brightness doss not have a manual option. It would be awesome to add a manual brightness option to this app so the user can set and it will stay.
Makes all the difference in the world out in the field when you are trying to get a range and the display is too dim. Ill take burn my retinas out over not being able to see the range all day long.

Very poor app
The el range TA is fine. It worked okay with original app version. Recently the app offloaded and lost all of my calibrated measurements. Not only did it lose them all but when I try to rebuild them, I can no longer finish building a rifle profile due to no scope entry options. Not talking about how it limits you to only Swarovski scope entries, but I can’t even fudge one in to get it working now as there isn’t even that option. I’m currently without the ability to use the rangefinding & MOA display at all. Should’ve stuck with Leica or Zeiss. Being stuck to three rifles is not ideal. Losing the data was not cool. I gave the suggestion about a year ago to give the option to copy the ranged coordinates so you could paste into OnX or similar but it still wasn’t there last time the app actually worked.

Needs some work
The app won’t populate a rifle scope and only offers the use of a Swarovski scope. It also would be beneficial to offer the ability to pair with a kestrel and import ballistic data from hornady 4DOF soft ware or applied Ballistics to auto populate custom drag models etc.

Works well. Needs some Improvement
Mostly intuitive and seems to work. I have checked the ballistics output against 3 other ballistics programs and it seems to correlate fairly well. Would like to see the ability to input my scope vs only having the ability to assign a Swarovski scope. Also. Allow naming of the three available rifle inputs as rifle name with the specific round being fired.

Crashes. Update - fixed
It crashes every time you try to load ammo parameters. Update fixed the problem. App works well now.
Would suggest ability to add multiple gun/ammo profiles (more than 3) and then selecting 3 to send to binos. That would be much appreciated and bump this up to a five star app.
jrigel,
Should’ve kept my regular EL ranges or bought the NL’s.
They NEVER update their app so it won’t work with my new iPhone . I’m shocked that the top optic company hands down, won’t keep up on this. I have a great range finder that won’t sync with my rifle data . Cheaper to have bought the NL’s and kept my Sig 2400. No question on the quality. Really disappointed with their app.😔
Davieboiiii,
Awesome binoculars, horrible app!!
This app was a huge letdown! It crashes every time you input information. I was supposed use these on a hunt at the end of the month and now I don’t know what I am going to do! Please get this fixed Swarovski! Until then, I can’t recommend buying the binoculars! Such a shame!

App crashes when using tracking assist
App keeps crashing trying to use tracking assist. It will plot the range and location on the phone but as soon as you try and navigate it crashes.
