Aim Lab Mobile: Features and First Impressions
Following the successful installation of Aim Lab Mobile on my iPhone 12 mini, running iOS 15.5, I tested it out briefly to give you a quick rundown of its features and my experience. The aim trainerran pretty well on my device, with no visual lags or issues, which is impressive for an app in its early stages.
There is currently a time-limited drill available for players to practice different kinds of aim and tracking skills. Completing the drills will earn players in-game rewards and achievements. Furthermore, after you complete a specific exercise, the app will show in-depth reports, much like the PC version, highlighting various aspects of your performance, your strengths, and your weaknesses. You can check out this short gameplay video to get an idea of how Aim Lab Mobile works:
Aim Lab mobilecurrently supports pre-set control UIs for popular mobile gameslike Call of Duty Mobile, Garena Free Fire, and PUBG Mobile. Players can also select their desired control layout and customize the on-screen control buttons’ position, opacity, and size to match their playstyle.
Overall, the Aim Lab Mobile experience was pretty good in my brief testing. I have previously used Aim Lab on PC and can confirm that a similar experience is being offered to mobile users here. Although,the mobile version needs more work in terms of game-specific environmentsand more aiming and movement drills.
