MantisX - Pistol/Rifle App Reviews

The only issue I have with Mantis is I'd like to see a larger weapon selection. I recently bought a Springfield Prodigy 9mm but unfortunately it isn't included in the weapon list. Other than that.....spot on!

Just found another way to love Mantis even more. Dry firing with the Dry Fire Mag. What a great combination and completely loving to not have to rack the slide after each trigger pull. Winter time fun indoors and saving money on ammo.

This app, in conjunction with the mantis X training system, will improve your shooting skills more in 30 days, than you ever will by putting holes in paper targets, and trying to figure out what you’re doing wrong. I’ve been using mine for over three years and have registered over 75,000 shots saving $$$. I have four friends who have also started using this system, because of hearing me brag on how good my accuracy is now.

My first MantisX didn’t work but, Mantis sent me a new one. Very few questions were asked and had me back dry firing within a few days. They really stand behind their product and, the customer support is better than any company I’ve ever used. The dry firing and, live firing have helped me correct a lot of bad habits that I have. I know every once in a while i get a weird reading but, 99% of the time it gets a good reading even if I don’t like what it says. I am happy to see a company out there

sporadically picks up shots with a double action pistol. Also needs to be a function to skip lessons.

I do a lot of dry fire practice so this is actually really good for me. It’s surprising the amount of information I can get and even though use Bluetooth, you can still listen to music with it which I think is cool even through earbuds. My only complaint is that sometimes I cannot recognize the difference between a shot and racking a charger handle but other than that, I have absolutely zero compliance.

After a quick turnaround on an app repair the app is working phenomenally again. This app takes your critical dry fire training to the next level with amazing data to correct your form and build muscle memory.

It’s honestly insane after almost 5000 shots of dry fire how that improved my live fire skill. I haven’t been more motivated to want to dry Fire my weapon till now.

This really helps me with jerking the trigger and pulling with my left had that I didn’t realize I was doing! Worth the money spent.

I use it daily! Hundreds of shots minimum daily in the comfort of my own home, really benefits my shooting at the range when I’m actually paying for ammo! Couldn’t be more happy with my Blackbeard X and X10 Elite for both dry and live fire.

Using this app for dry fire would be waaay better if they could integrate the features of the Mantis Academy (real target and laser shot detection). I am somewhat disappointed that I spent $175 to upgrade my Blackbeard for a glorified gyroscope. 😕

I’ve owned the Mantis for a few years now, and dry fire works great. Whenever I take it to the range, the live fire never works. Every time, I follow the troubleshooting steps and nothing changes.

The only reason I gave this app 2 stars and not 1 is because is because it gets me to dry fire more. It give very inconsistent feedback.

So I absolutely appreciate the idea of being able to get real data on how training is progressing, BUT this App shows very little consistency. I literally put the system in a vice and got readings so different, it could not possibly be recording what was happening in real time. Thus the coaching and critiques, that would come from the data, is not accurate. Worst of all, it doesn’t communicate with Mantis Laser Academy at all (you have to have separate apps for the two teaching tools) which is

Even after deleting and reinstalling, this app is constantly crashing when I try to open it. It worked for a little while and it seems it could be a very effective tool for dry firing if it worked. I had to return the hardware, as it is useless without this app.

Spent 15 minutes trying to get the first session to work and failed. Looks like people who like this app must have spent a lot more time to learn how to make it work.

Seems amazing.. except cant get through tutorial. After the second step of 10 shots untimed accuracy, it makes the sound to let you know you are done and the app crashes/closed, losing the progress. Iphone 14, latest Os, latest app.
