The host can fix it straight from the round lobby. • PGA-style scorecard marks — eagles, birdies, pars and bogeys now show as proper circles and squares, plus a tidy score distribution strip for each player. • Cleaner in-round highlights — we stopped replaying the whole stack of old toasts when you reopen an active round; only new milestones pop. • Better eagle/albatross callouts in the round summary, whatever format you played. • Smaller fixes and reliability improvements across emails, notifications and course data.

What's new in 1.6.3 • Weekly Thursday nudge — a short, friendly heads-up every Thursday evening during the golf season (Mar–Oct) to remind you to book your weekend round.
