Re: 25m Pistol Timer (new Android app with shot detection)

The problem that I have is that I would like to have the sounds played thru a blue tooth speaker so that it can act as the RO for a few of us shooting together. It won't work with my phone at all (android razor). It almost works with my wife's phone (Samsung) but the sounds continue to play on the ...

Re: 25m Pistol Timer (new Android app with shot detection)

ToTheZeroth Can you add a "bip" option to the command sequence of the custom event? It would be great to get the timing right when dry firing the 20 and 10 seconds for example. One could create the event, then add the bips at the time he/she would like the shots to go off. Best regards an...

Re: 25m Pistol Timer (new Android app with shot detection)

Worked out OK but even adjusting the mic volume It also registered other shooters when they shoot Anything I can do/adjust to prevent that? I can't imagine that there is. The app was designed with a single-shooter scenario in mind. I could possibly add a function where you could attach a stand-alon...

Re: 25m Pistol Timer (new Android app with shot detection)

I'm sorry to hear that, but thank you for your detailed bug report. I haven't been able to reproduce the bug on my devices, but then none of them are running 4.4.2. It seems that Bluetooth acting up on 4.4.2 is not all that uncommon. Rebooting your phone might work. Switching off Bluetooth while usi...

Re: 25m Pistol Timer (new Android app with shot detection)

Update to 1.9 available now. Features include: Changed to a dark app theme, mainly because it's easier on the battery. If someone had a strong preference for the light theme, let me know and I'll add that back as an option. Revamped custom event editor. I think it's both neater and more intuitive no...

Oh, I thought nothing of the sort. On the contrary, I've been kind of overwhelmed by all the positive response from everyone in this thread.

Re: 25m Pistol Timer (new Android app with shot detection)

I was just thinking that if you're training with lights then you might as well use the full 3 seconds as, with ESTs, you will get the score if it's registered at the target 3.3 seconds after the green light comes on. I can understand training to shoot under 3 seconds on turning targets where you mi...

Re: 25m Pistol Timer (new Android app with shot detection)

How can you tell which version is download? The version is shown at the bottom of the Google Play page, it may require clicking "more info" or something. If you want to know what version you have currently installed on your Android device, you can go to Settings → Applications → Manage ap...

Re: 25m Pistol Timer (new Android app with shot detection)

Some of us have phones where the screen automatically locks after a few seconds, and it would we awesome if the application prohibited the screen lock as long as this application is in the foreground. I have seen this done in other timer apps, but they are unfortunately missing other features that ...

Re: 25m Pistol Timer (new Android app with shot detection)

Suggestions for future releases would be to be able to select the size of the red / green dots up to a nice big blob with the idea that the device could be hung on wall above a resized target to replicate an electronic target. Even fancier would be to have a size-selectable black circle with the re...

Re: 25m Pistol Timer (new Android app with shot detection)

A couple of suggestions: 1- Add an option to choose voices or beeps for the commands. It would be nice to hear load and start instead of a beep. 2- If a shot is out of time it should appear in red. In the 5 x 3 seconds, for example, it would make more sense. 3- Keep the shot detection active for lo...

Re: 25m Pistol Timer (new Android app with shot detection)

There is an international pistol timer on the Google App Store that I've used for some time: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jmmobile.android.pistoltimer&hl=en Works very well too. Yes, that's one of the apps I tried before deciding on making my own. It's very nice and intuiti...

25m Pistol Timer (new Android app with shot detection)

I couldn't find a good timer app with shot detection for the ISSF 25m events at Google Play, so I decided to make one. I've uploaded it to Google Play in case it should interest anyone else (it's completely free). You can choose from 5 minutes, 5×3 seconds, 150 seconds, 20 seconds, 10 seconds, 8 sec...
