The Caldwell Ballistic Chronograph and their v1.21 app on an iPhone 13 mini were tested and DO NOT WORK with the Lightning adapter. I got a green icon in the app indicating the chrono was connected. It didn't record any shots. The only configuration I have that works is the Caldwell Ballistic Chronograph and their v1.21 app on an iPad Mini ***with the 4-pole 3.5 mm jack***. The problem is the conversion from the legacy 4-pole 3.5 mm jack to the iPhone Lightning port does not work. It's anyone's guess why Caldwell is marketing a product they aren't supporting.
You’re thinking what I’m thinking. How cheap can we make this off shore with no support. Congratulations you got your wish. It does record but it’s pen and paper if you have an iPhone from the last 10 years
I got an iPhone 16 and it doesn’t work on it. It didn’t work on the last iPhone. I had either and I’ve had this thing for about four years and Caldwell don’t care. I thought about getting just a cheap android phone from a pawnshop just for this purpose, but decided it ain’t worth it. I should say, though that the corner graph itself works fine. I just can’t use the app, but it still helps me with my reloads.

Glad I could help. I just wished it worked a little better but it does do what it’s supposed to.

A friend giving you their old junk android would work. I’m in the same boat :)
Did they ever get the iPhone app working?
