Getting Started

What is Ring Reader?

Ring Reader is an app for recording shooting results — air rifle, air pistol, and small-bore (50 m). Photograph your target, and Ring Reader automatically detects the shots and calculates your ring score in ISSF decimal scoring. You can also bring in results from electronic scoring systems such as Meyton or Disag. More on that in the chapter Import results. Your results are saved, so you can track your progress at any time.

Analyzing your results lets you see your progress and identify areas for improvement, so you can improve your shooting and your scores. In addition, Ring Reader gives you the option to take detailed notes on your training and keep a training diary.

Ring Reader runs right in your browser, but you can also install the app on your home screen like a “real app” and run it in full-screen mode (see the chapter Install the app).

App overview

The navigation is kept simple:

• Bottom: Four tabs — “History” (target icon), “New” (plus icon — opens the Capture page for scanning and recording), “Analytics” (bar chart), and “Challenges” (trophy icon).
• Top right: Hamburger menu (☰) with “My Notes”, “Settings”, “Pricing”, “Guide”, and “About”.
• Top left: The Ring Reader logo and sync status (when you’re signed in).

Free & Pro

You can start using Ring Reader for free right away. For everything else there is Ring Reader Pro, a yearly subscription:

• Free: Scan and score targets, all imports (photo, file, and QR code), enter results manually, store up to 10 series locally, download score cards (result images for sharing).
• Pro: Unlimited series and cloud sync across all your devices, challenges, notes and training diary, push notifications, series groups, long-term statistics and CSV/PDF export, equipment management (weapons, ammunition, and locations).

The Pro subscription starts with a free trial during which all features are unlocked — the current trial length is shown at checkout. If you bought Plus or Pro back when they were one-time purchases, your licence stays valid unchanged.
