I'm entering all my data on the dropdown. Menu, and when I click on something, it pops up an ad and then deletes all of the data that I have entered ridiculous

App is buggy and is missing a lot of scopes and radicals. I bought 3 bushnell Rimfire 3-9x40 dz22 to use this app, and they are not supported, but even some of my other bushnell scopes are no where to be found

Doesn't work for their own scopes. I was considering their 3x9 rimfire scope with DZ22 reticle. I couldn't find it on Strelok Pro so I Downloaded the Bushnell app that's advertised with their scope. NOPE they don't support that reticle either. No wonder the other program didn't have it. Very poor product support. I'll buy another brand scope. Plenty out there.

I just bought a Bushnell drop zone 22 with illuminated reticle scope. It flouts the app for use with this purchase and I cannot find anything (scope model or reticle model) relevant on the app. Sucks!! Obviously the app was used (possibly deceptively) as a selling point on the package... however, the usage and support for my scope purchase, was non-existent!!

This app has great potential.... But it's not all there. Despite getting a pamphlet for this app with my new scope, the app doesn't even have my scope in it! 3-9x40 Rimfire. I thought it might be good for my other scope, but the app doesn't even have M193 in it either. Disappointing. Uninstalled as it's useless for the everyday user who isn't super into ballistics.

Doesn't include any Winchester ammunition. Can't even find an ammo in their list what has the same properties. Has the wrong reticle for the scope despite telling the app exactly what scope I'm using. Always trying to convince me to buy a range-finder to pair with it when all I wanted was to calculate the ranges for the markings on my reticle.

As a companion app to the Nitro 1800 this is great. The purchase upgrades for the Applied Ballistics software are 100% worth it. Once I trued my ballistics in the app I'm dead on all the way to 1500 yds with my 6.5 CM. If you actually understand what your paying for AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, how to use it, it's a powerful tool, especially when paired with a Kestrel. I would disregard the neg reviews, I haven't had any issues in the 6 months I've used it. 100% recommend.

Requires upgrade to be useful. For a free app from a manufacturer, this is not what it should be. There are several other apps which are easier to use and far more capable with no cost. Somewhat disappointing that a scope manufacturer that touts this app as a selling point then limits its functions. Things you can't do without an upgrade include velocity, barrel twist, sight height, rifle name, and more. And, it's limited to Bushnell reticles.

Buggy App - Without updates or fixes. It seems the developers have abandoned the app, as the last update was mid last year, and there are plenty of bugs that they could be fixing. Pull down menus can be pulled down, but then cannot be pushed back up, covering reticle and key data.. Input selections can be tapped on once (such as range for targets), but then they wont let you tap on them again.. The app doesn't seem to be very well laid out in general, with things sometimes hard to find.

Potential to be great. But their insistence to using their reticles and having a mildot without detailed hashed. You also have to pay another $50. Just to be able to set twist rate and scope height. Two basic fundamentals. If it wasnt for Kestrel compatibility I would have sold my 1800 range finder.
