Good, app but could have improvements. I wish the units could be selected individually like they can in the ballistics version. I prefer most units in imperial but some are nice to read in metric. But overall, it does what it needs to and does it well.

Good app. Easy to use, but an option to keep screen awake would be a great addition.

Dashboard display is much too large to fit screen and is unuseable. This was not always a problem as it worked fine when originally installed two years ago. There is no way to adjust the font or screen size.

Unable to connect D3 from Xperia 1 II, running Android 10...

Hi, I used redmi note 9 pro, when I connect to my mobile it shows device connection failed, I tried several times but it's not working

Great App. It does need to be updated for a few minor things like switching views. Wish I could swipe to get to the next page vs the bottom menu. I use it for several Kestrel Drops.
