Ratings and reviews

Not sold, yet.. A major upgrade would be the elimination of automatically designating the units of measure based on regional data, and rather manual inputs from the user. Also, toss in a windage field into the calculator, and it would be a massive bennifit. Overall, great tool, and swarow continues to impress, but a couple tweaks will take this from "useful" status and make it a critical asset for Swarovski optics users.

Some data fields are in German rather than English. Selecting different bullet styles does not update the muzzle velocity from the previously selected one. The ammunition list does not include the common Federal ammo that I use. Quite buggy so far. For a premium optic, the poor user experience with this app leaves a bad impression of the Swarovski brand

The app looks promising. The "fancy" feature to automatically select unit system does however make it useless to me, as it implicetly gives me imperial units, and there is no option to override this and get the metric system. If I understand things correctly the devs want me to select another language in Android to get the metric system, but I prefer American English in my OS.
