Is OnTarget the go-to program for measuring groups? And is the upgrade to OnTarget TDS really worth an extra $20?
I also found Range Buddy from Reloader's Cloud that might be a decent one if you could do the measurements on a computer instead of your phone.

I use SubMOA and Ballistic-x on my iPhone. The Ballistic-X app is good for one group per photo while you can do multiple groups per photo on SubMOA. SubMOA takes a little time to figure out what’s what and might take. Bit to get used to (I found a YouTube video that helped a lot), while Ballistic-X walks you through each step every time.

I use the OnTarget the phone apps aren't that great at least for me. I prefer the TDS on the PC.

I think I would drive myself up a wall trying to use my finger to make a measurement a 4 inch screen. SubMOA would probably be ok if I had an Ipad.

I have range buddy on my android, and on target on the lap top,...both are pretty similar,..range buddy let's you store rifle and load data, but doesn't have good instructions, I find myself relearning what I need to do when I use it.

Have you used Range Buddy Pro's to sync to the reloaders cloud website? I have been playing around with it more and I think that might be the way I want to go if I can take all my pictures at the range and do all my analyzing when I get back home.

I've been using range buddy on my phone without issue for a few years now.

On Target makes you rebuy it for each device. I've bought it twice, upgraded equipment, and don't feel like buying it again.
I've found Range Buddy takes a little learning curve, but once you figure it out, it's faster and easier than On Target.

I use OnTarget on my PC when I get home... Also, I've updagraded my equipment twice since I bought it, and just shoot them an email for a new unlock key... No problem so far...

Good to know. I have been using the Reloaders Cloud, who makes Range Buddy. While it's working well and free, moving the picture around to line up the bullet holes is weird to me. I was happy to see I could use it on my computer as the phone screen is too small, but even on my computer it leaves something to be desired for me.
