Vortex Relay™ Connectivity
Vortex Relay™ Connectivity creates a perfect ecosystem for precision shooting. Powered by Bluetooth® and the GeoBallistics® app, it lets compatible devices share real-time ballistic solutions, environmental data (temperature, pressure, humidity, wind), and rifle-specific profiles across your setup. Eliminate manual data entry and achieve faster, more accurate field performance.
Key Vortex products enhanced by Vortex Relay™ Connectivity include:
