  • Our take on the Virtual Archery Challenge

    The Virtual Archery Challenge is a Bluetooth smart bow that pairs with your phone so you can shoot at augmented-reality targets through three companion apps. It collapses for storage and holds most phones in a universal cradle. It is aimed at kids, teens and casual archers who want a game more than a real bow. Buyers rate it poorly, and the main complaints are that the bow feels like a toy, the apps are limited and the tracking is unreliable.

    What reviewers say

    • 2.1 / 516 ratings

    Ratings are low, and owners describe a toy-grade bow whose apps and tracking do not hold up. Some like the idea of AR archery, but few say it plays well.

    What people mention
    • App performanceCriticisedOwners say the companion apps are buggy and limited, which drags down the experience.
    • Shot trackingCriticisedReviewers report that shots register inaccurately, so aiming feels disconnected from the screen.
    • Build qualityCriticisedBuyers describe the bow as light and toy-like rather than sturdy.
    • SetupMixedPairing and downloading the apps is quick, but getting the phone seated and tracking well takes fiddling.
    • Fun factorMixedKids enjoy the AR targets at first, though interest fades as the games run out of content.

    About the Virtual Archery Challenge

    Yes. The bow does nothing on its own; you pair it over Bluetooth and run one of the three apps on your phone.

    It works with most iPhones and Android phones through the universal cradle. Super Archer and VR Bow Hunt Deer run on both; King of Archer is iPhone only.
    What comes in the box?
    The smart Bluetooth bow and a universal smartphone cradle. Apps are free downloads and the phone is not included.
