Bullseye Target Camera SUCK NOW

[tomsgarage]

I have two of the one mile units that have performed flawless for me. They have updated the application and removed any useful target shooting application from device. I have spoke with them several times and they were promising they had a new app coming to fix issues. This week I spoke with customer service and they told me it is a hardware issue and the new system would fix it. They stated they would replace my systems with new. Now they want me to pay half and I still can't see how new hardware fixes a shitty app. I would be even more unhappy if I spend more and end up with same issues.

how frustrating...any chance you can delete the new application and go back to the old application?

also, is it the SME Brand or the Bullseye Ammo Can set up....i don't want to have the same problem

SME bought the ammo can and changed the application no way to get old app.... I asked. I have an old tablet with the old app and it still works fine but tablet is old and battery life is shit. New phone application is useless in android and Iphone version locked his phone up and he had to power phone off to end it. What a total POS they turned this into.

so sorry to hear that

my 2 friends and i were going to share in one but i think it best we hold off now. thanks for the info.

just a thought but could you use a power bank to keep your tablet juiced up?

I tried the side shot cam and as of yet it does not work and multiple emails to the makers with zero responses yet , I saw that Caldwell long range target Camera this thing
and from what I saw on the guys phone it works nice its my next buy on an item like that it was easy set up at least he made it look easy to set up and the video quality was great and it does not interfere with my scope in any way .

If you still have the old application that works installed on your old Android tablet, run an .apk extractor to save the old app as an installable .apk file, then transfer that .apk over to your new device and install it. Then, immediately go into the Google play store and disable automatic updates for that app... This way you can keep using the old version of the app that works.

Perfect I was not aware that I could save an app and install on a different android device I will try and get that done tonight. I will report back my results.
Thank You !

If there is cellphone signal at the target and firing position use a trail camera with a cell phone card to send photos or videos to your cellphone.

From any distance you can order the camera to send you a photo.

Also weatherproof

I might have to try that

Update found Amazon has old version of app still available and fixed my issues completely. I did not even know Amazon had apps I always use google play. When I google searched for old app I found Amazon had it.

I have the caldwell and it works good for me. It doesnt have the see your shot type apps it is just a camera to your phone laptop or tablet. That might be why it works.

i figured it out!!!!!!!!!!! spread the word!!!
i have the ammo can camera, tablet updated the app, now all i have is a stupid sight in mode, and it dont mark shots. So after several days on the phone waiting on hold, finally got a girl to answer, she talked to someone, and she sent me a RA to get a updated camera. but in the meantime, i been searching, and found this thread, then searched for the app, and found this!!!!!

you can down load all the previous versions of the app, i did the oldest one, and it connects to my old camera. i wont be able to try it at the range till sat, but now im not sure i want to send them my old camera, not sure if the old app will work with the new camera version. the camera worked fine at 600 yards for me until the app updated.

i managed to down load and save the first 4 apps, the 5th and 6th are the new app, and it sucks. i scanned it , said it was safe. now im trying to figure out how to install it from the saved file. i tried to attach it, but its not an allowed extension.

Yea I have had nothing but problems with mine so far it will not connect with the phone app I will also say the company its self really let me down they sent an email that they will not respond to nor will they take back the unit I'll take it as a learning chance and never buy there products again . My best case chance now is that video online and using the parts from the cadwell shot cam that I can use and make something maybe that does work .

its would be almost funny if it did not already cost 300 dollars , I have seen someone else's work at the range and it was pretty nice at least there set up mine not so much . but at the ranges I can shoot from I really don't need it with my scope I can more than clearly see the targets hits or misses maybe more it would be more of a priority if I was shooting at a longer range and could not see . or if mirage was a lot worse in my area .

I thought about getting a target cam a while back but now the electronic target systems have come down in price and work so well I'm glad I held off.

FYI, I downloaded the old version of the app at the link noted above and connected to my newest version of the SME target cam, Sniper Version long range, and it works great.
