I’m a paid user of the app. The ability to preview rounds and easily select targets and choose clubs is awesome. By itself, that makes the app worth having. But I got a paid sub so that I could enter my rounds and track my strokes gained. I waited until the GPS tracking was available, as I didn’t want to manually record everything (which the app DOES make quite easy, btw). The live round entry is a nightmare due to the existing bugs. For example, after tracking the first shot, when I change the flag position (once I’m close enough to actually see the green), sometimes the option to track shot #2 disappears. So I have to exit my round and come back to edit an existing round. That wouldn’t be a deal breaker except that occasionally, ~HALF OF THE SHOTS I PREVIOUSLY ENTERED HAVE NOW DISAPPEARED. Gone. As in, I’ll have gotten a par, but now shots 2 and 4 are just gone, while the app still shows shots 1 and 3, and has marked me down for an eagle. This has happened repeatedly, including AFTER finalizing a round and going back to edit a single hole.This is extremely frustrating, and for me, makes the app unusable for live round entry. There are other smaller bugs as well, but nothing near as bad as just losing/deleting shot data randomly. I’m a technical PM so I’m familiar with the challenges of building software and handling non-happy path edge cases, but these are critical failures. This app simply needs more testing (and subsequent bug fixes) before it’s ready for primetime. It’s capable of being quite good.
Hi Chris,Thanks for taking the time to write a review and give feedback. I apologize for the issues you’re having.The button to track a shot disappears while the data is written to the back end. We were affected by the global outage of several Google services last week, so the write may have never completed. However it does sound like this might be more than a one-off issue. Would you mind sending an email to support@shotpattern.app so that we can troubleshoot further?Apologies,Eric
