ShotView™

Garmin

About this app

Use the ShotView™ app to connect to your Xero® C1 Pro chronograph. After a shooting session is completed, see your ballistic data on the app, where it is organized and easy to interpret. Analyze shot data, including speed, deviation, extreme spread, kinetic energy and more — and export the raw data to CSV format. Exclude cold bore shots and other outliers from session calculations as desired. Create custom names for each session, add notes for specific shots, and mark clean bore and cold bore attributes for each shot. Filter by weapon type to quickly access specific sessions for review.

The ShotView™ app can send and save your recorded shot and session data to the cloud. You can access and use saved data on other phones or back up your data for future use. A Garmin account is required to store your data in the cloud.

Ratings and reviews

This app is great. Connects instantly every time. Simple and easy. You don't need all that other garbage that doesn't work like velocities every foot, because b.c.'s are not relevant at 100 yards for most bullets. That's what truing is for. When a session is complete, data will automatically be sent to the app. Easy to edit session title, too. This app contains a notes section that is great. Remove/ turn off and on shots from the list and the data updates accordingly. Don't change anything!

App is a start but needs more features. It's nice for getting the Xero C1 the firmware updates and looking at strings more easily, but I'd really like to see a "templates" option for assigning info about strings quickly. For example, in a template you could name a firearm, bullet information, powder and charge weight. That way if you're running a ladder test you can apply a set of standard info to the strings and only have to change the powder charge weight instead of typing everything again.

Pairing is good, but every way of exporting the data is untested. Can only export single sessions as CSV, and the encoding is UTF-8 with Byte Order Mark, producing garbage characters in the output in Excel. Can export all sessions as Excel, but the SD is 0.0 for all and the filename wrong. Can get a converter for fit files to CSV, but only does 1 at a time and output is gibberish due to formatting. It would be great to control sessions from the app or have templates, but please fix the exports!
