Great app, I use X8 Archery. It is like a $50 per hour coach. It needs a few additional functions which I hope are in future upgrades. You get millisecond movements of your bow, stability of each shot in % a consistent low 90% is pretty steady. Difficulty is, you are the one to figure out exactly what you are doing wrong. Mantis gives the raw data it might be one possible reason or 10. I paid $200 for Mantis8. The app n hardware has paid for itself 10 times over in first week. Buy one!!!

It's almost perfect!! The app works like a charm, and you can record your shooting performance very well. What I would like to have is an option to set the sleep timer of the Mantis sensor. Most of the time, when I go to collect the arrows and I am back, the sensor is off. That means I need to turn it on, connect, and let it calibrate again. As a result, sometimes I forget to turn it on ... :( Please let me know if there is some option like this and I am missing it.

The sensor shouldn't be turning off unless it's losing connection. If you carry your phone or bow down range and it loses connection, the sensor will turn off. Reach out to support@mantisx.com if you have any other issues.

Good app although there could be some improvements made: Integration of the full functionality of the Mantis "My Targets" app. Keeping track of the score in the Mantis (x8) app is now not possible. Further more the Mantis x8 doesn't usually see my lifting the bow up as that. It shows a green line instead of the turqoise line. Not everyone's bow rests in the same angle. Lastly, the arrow placement is assuming that i was pointing towards where the arrow hit, instead of the middle of the target.
