The new LÖWEN DART app, which was developed exclusively for playing on the new LÖWEN DART HB10, brings real added value for athletes and dart operators alike.

In February, the first unit of the serial production for the LÖWEN DART HB10 rolled off the production line at LÖWEN ENTERTAINMENT in Bingen. It succeeds the LÖWEN DART HB8. Since 2000, LÖWEN ENTERTAINMENT has produced almost 34,000 units of this legendary classic, which is represented in the pub sector as well as at national and international e-dart championships, and which has significantly cemented LÖWEN’s market leadership in this segment. One year after its market launch, the new dart machine LÖWEN DART HB10 convinces dart players, operators and pub owners alike with its new game modes, its modern look and, for the first time, its own dart app for dart players.

The app is simple to use: The dart player simply has to scan the QR code on the touchscreen of the LÖWEN DART HB10 with his smartphone. Immediately, the e-dart device displays his player profile with name and picture. The result of every single dart that lands on the HB10's dartboard is automatically displayed and saved in the player profile.

“The app is great: I can always see directly how I am currently playing, but also how I have played in the past. I can see my progress, but also where I could train more and improve,” says Thomas. He has been competing in DSAB leagues and national championships on e-darts for years.

He is one of the first users of the new LÖWEN DART app, which has been available for download in the App Store and Google Play Store since a couple of months.

Detailed training and match statistics are the core of the app. In the future, this will make it possible to backtrack the individual game history very precisely, even over years. Over 40 different, detailed statistics are available to the darters.

The results of past darts matches and the skills of opponents – if they also use the app – can be checked at any time. All match results can also be shared with friends and followers on all common social media channels with just one click via the LÖWEN DART app. The app is exclusively available for the LÖWEN DART HB10. “With the app, we have created a new bridge between the athletes, their smartphones and the LÖWEN DART HB10. Due to the numerous features it offers, darts fans have a truly novel playing experience”, says Stefan Mathes, LÖWEN ENTERTAINMENT Product Manager Darts.

On the other hand, the app also brings many advantages for operators, who have the HB10 in their line-up. “Through the app, the darters will practice and compete with each other even more targeted and more often on the HB10. This in turn increases the utilisation and playing time of these e-darts in operation. Our credo has always been: LÖWEN DART has to be an attractive product for dart players, operators and pub owners! In the meantime, Mathes is already venturing a further outlook: Soon, an e-dart finder will also be part of the dart app. Users will then immediately see where the nearest LÖWEN DART HB10 is located. The product manager expects this to lead to even greater customer loyalty, but also to new guests for the pub industry and the operators. Through the app, the darters will practice and compete with each other even more targeted and more often on the HB10.
