The Sniper Revolution has Started!



Ever wanted to send anonymous text messages? Ever been on a bus and seen a cute girl sitting in the corner and wished you had her number? Ever been in shop with annoying children playing ringtones and wish you could think of a subtle way to tell them stop it? Ever been in a classroom, office or a pub with your mates and wish you could scare, shock or make them laugh somehow?

Now you can!


As we like to say Find your target, take aim and let Sniper do the rest!


Sniper is the subtle application that could make you the king of Bluetooth! With an amazing range of brand new features it will blow anything in its way right out of the water.

*IMPORTANT* if you buy a copy, when asked for your device id you *MUST* enter the id exactly as shown on the Sniper registration screen. The registration calculation is *CASE-SENSITIVE*

Its fantastic new layout shows the coolest designs and skins that make the app seem as good as it looks and its initive menu system will allow you to target any active Bluetooth devices very quickly.

Using Compact Framework 1.0! Which is standard on a Smartphone and PPC! You can install the app and be finding your targets before you know it.

Sniper integrates the ability too :

Bluejack Messages and Files!
Send anonymous messages!
Send Files!
Read Bluetooth status reports!
Fix messages from other devices that are encoded differently!
Have an inbox to store all received messages!
Choose different Skins!
Allow different file types to be sent to individual locations!
Allow general files to be sent anywhere!
Reply instantly to received messages!
Change the Bluetooth profile!


Sniper being as good as it looks has the easiest menu system ever! Let me take you through this.



So you start off like this with this background showing you that you have no messages, so you decide to start an analysis of the Bluetooth devices in the vicinity when suddenly some one targets you!

You hit yes and wait for the incoming transmission from the other device targeting you.

The pure genius of the app will actually allow you too view this message straight away so you can get started on the shot that’s going to shock this other device.

The message in this genius inbox allows you to take a brief view of the actual message before you plan your move.

The option is there for you to take your position with such speed the other device won’t understand what’s happened.

You quickly proceed with your reply and senders name and before they realize what’s going on!

BANG! You’ve got them and the simplistic status report will inform you that your target has been hit.

This is a perfect example of the fun you can have while out and about with this application, Sniper has been tested to its extremes so that its perfect for real life situations like this. Its unbelievable speed will leave you wanting more of its raw Bluetooth power.

Sniper has two sides too it though, it’s not just about targeting unaware passerby’s but it’s also about the fun free side of Bluetooth that saves you time and money!

So you’re sitting in a classroom or lecture waiting for you teacher to arrive and instead of sending a text message which costs money! You can send a free Bluetooth message instead!

And with the instant reply button you can reply quicker than a text!

You will find loads of uses for this application that you will find fun and sneaky! With the new FIX function Sniper can talk to anyone!!!!

Take this for example! If a nokia sends a message sometimes it will appear like this

But with Sniper you can change it too this!

Attached File  10.JPG   29.59K   369 downloads


Thanks to Snipers Fix function it can talk to just about any device. If the sending device uses a different coding language and sends you a garbled message, Sniper can FIX it for you!

My favorite feature of Sniper! Is bluejacking! It’s a lot of fun that will target multiple phones.

Using the standard message screen it will send this to multiple phones!

Attached File  12.JPG   15.41K   81 downloads


It will send repeatedly until the stop button is pressed!

On top of all these amazing features, Sniper also allows customizable skins! Which can easily be created and changed! Just check out this simplistic system!

Sniper is a truly essential piece of software that makes Bluetooth on your device more fun and flexible! It will run on all devices PPC and Smartphone running any windows mobile operating system which makes Sniper the most compatible Bluetooth app around.

While testing this piece of software I and the other testers have been helping and contributing ideas to the ultimate Bluetooth package. The software has come leaps and bounds from the beginning and it really is the perfect Bluetooth add-on to your device! It provides you with a lot of useful features that will become even better and more advanced as V2 gets closer!

I think sniper is worth every penny and at a measly $9.99 Its definitely worth giving it ago.


The Sniper revolution has started. You better get yours before someone gets you.......

IMHO it's overly large for the front page, and reads more advert than review...

Hardly! Ive been managing the testing of this whole app and conans been a beta tester!

We dont think its right as its an app thats been worked hard on and deserves to be noticed.

However I cannot do anything for the while for certain reasons.

Please dont start, I was trying anything funny here.

It was a large review. I thought it was great! However, I don't feel like an impartial observer since I wrote Sniper ;-)

I have noticed however that mini_mans group has changed to member since the post was removed.

I *hope* he's not being punished for the overlong posting, surely just moving it was enough?

conan_troutman, thanks for the kind words, although I'm not sure I count as big guns :-) Just me, my laptop and a trusty Audiovox SMT 5600 :-)

rule of thumb with reviews on here is that you post a link to the review if it is newsworthy. not the whole thing.

and no he hasn't been punished for this.

So, is it out of order to ask for a smaller review/news piece for the front page?

So, I noticed the Sniper thread has been closed.

Seems fair enough, mini_man was saying earlier that it is time to close it since the Beta Testing is over.

So anyone, who has feature requests, bug reports, questiions on how to use Sniper can get me here.

Cheers
