ArrowNotes overview with recent rounds, arrow count and trends

Why ArrowNotes?

ArrowNotes grew out of practice – out of the wish for an app that lets you record arrows without detours, without distraction and without rigid rules. In training or in competition: a few seconds after the end should be enough to note the result and get back to shooting.

The app deliberately avoids clutter, yet gives you a solid basis for analysis, evaluation and structure. Many features are already there, others are added step by step – with the goal of being a powerful but still clear companion for archers.

What ArrowNotes does

Record it the way it suits you

Tap the rings right on the target face – a loupe shows the spot your finger covers. Prefer typing? Use the keypad. Took a photo of the target? Place the markers on the photo.

Three ways to record: target face, keypad, target photo
Target faces: WA/FITA 10, 5 and 6 ring, 3-spot, WA Field, WA Field 3-spot
Record freely without a fixed number of ends – ideal for training

Just photograph the target

No paper, no copying: take a photo of the target face, tap the ring value in the palette and drag the marker onto the arrow. The photo stays with the end – as a record and as the basis for analysis.

One photo per end, visible at a glance in the list of ends
Press and hold to lift a marker and place it precisely, with a loupe
Scores feed into the total and the statistics

Recording scores directly on the target photo

Shot from an angle? No problem

You rarely stand square in front of the target. Perspective correction puts a template over the photo – five handles on a reference circle, a cross on the centre, with an automatic suggestion. After that the markers are real positions on the target face.

Works even when the outer edge is cropped
For field faces and 3-spot just as for the classic target
If the angle is too steep the app declines instead of guessing

Competition and match play

The Olympic set system and cumulative compound scoring are built in – as individual, team and mixed team. The round shows the set point score, every set and the winner; if it is level, the shoot-off follows.

Six WA formats, set and arrow counts come from the format

Shoot-off included, with the decision of who was closer to the centre

Rounds with several sections

A round consists of as many sections as you like – each with its own target face, size and distance. That covers a WA 1440 just as well as a field course or an indoor tournament.

Templates for indoor, outdoor, field and 3-spot
Select and analyse each section on its own
Save, edit and delete ends

Round with four sections at 90, 70, 50 and 30 metres

See where your arrows land

The hit pattern shows group centre and spread in centimetres – for rounds with several target faces separately per face, so the numbers stay correct.
