Ratings and Reviews
Love the app, especially on my Apple Watch
I’ve been using the free version of this app for about 2 years and I really like it. I tend to use it mostly on my watch unless I can’t connect for some reason and have to use my phone. I love that I can determine the distance of each shot and it’s very accurate with the various distance markers at the courses.
I can’t say I love the new watch version however. I really use it to keep score and determine yardage distances. With the new version, it’s a lot harder to just go the basics. I also found that it’s not syncing with my activity rings. When I started using it 2 years ago, I had to manually start my golf activity to record my steps and calories. Then it started to record my activity automatically, even though it didn’t call it golf. My last few rounds, the activity had not been tracked. I tried to find a setting to change it, asked a question on the phone app about it, but still not sure if it’s possible to automatically have it record my activity.
I’ve recommend this to all my friends with Apple Watches because I’ve tried a few other apps available and this is still the best!

Great App, Needs Few Improvements
If you’re looking at this app versus other apps on the iPhone. Just go ahead and pick this one. You can track many of the different elements of your game and the map interface is exactly what you need. The thing that I wish it had was the ability to see par when reviewing your previous games. When you go back to a previous game and you look at an individual hole, you can’t see what par was for the hole you’re viewing. You can tap the score to view par, but then it deselects your previous score and if you weren’t paying attention, you’ll lose what you had marked there. A suggestion to the developers would be to add a lock feature to the scorecard so you can browse previous game scores without fear or changing them.
Besides that little detail, this thing is great! Perhaps a calculation of the handicap for the individual courses would be helpful. Okay, I’m done. Great app.
Enjoy and download this app!

It just lacks critical features
I want to use this app, I really do… but 2 things bother me. Stats have absolutely no correlation to the scores on your hole. Yeah, maybe you should just enter the accurate stats, but what if I fat finger the wrong stat and don’t notice it? You literally can record a score of a 3 but say it took 4 putts, 3 chips, 3 penalties and 2 sand shots and it is completely fine with that… why? What is the explanation?
The app also lacks automatic shot tracking for every shot using your Apple Watch. It will track your drive on every hole, but after that, you have to manually remember to press track shot which just interferes with your round. If you forgot to hit track shot, you just have to wing it and hope you got it right. At least if the app dropped bread crumbs and the GPS detected your moving around the course you could go back and guesstimate.
Real, true swing detection and auto shot track should be a feature. It should also correlate or at least suggest your score based on the swing locations and you should not be able to enter more stroke stats than the actual stroke you took. I really wish they would fix these features because so many other small things about this app are great. Alas… I don’t think these fixes will ever happen.
