Been using since 2011. Just compared it to a GPS watch for an entire round. Very accurate. Awesome that you can see how far away bunkers and other hazards are. I would recommend. They even updated a new course the day before I played it...just had to ask. Great customer service. Thanks. * ^ update 2025 App still awesome!
as I entered the scores it would constantly jump back to the first player (without the new score), and the scorecard used to be emailed to the players at the end of the round. this appears to be gone now.
I like the app, but a few things that can be worked on. Two of my other issues with the app have been brought up by others in the reviews, the app jumping back to the first player every time I put in the scores for a hole, and also only 9 holes being available as an option other than having the option of choosing 18 holes. The other issue that I have, is that the meters indicated are always more than all the courses that I have played at. It makes it difficult to pick the right club to use.
This app use to be great but this years updates have ruined it. I use to be able to see lifetime stats and averages but now none of the numbers in the stats section make any sense. The GPS also does not work as well as it use to - I use to be able to click on the green and it would give distances to different parts of the green, but it either no longer does this or the feature just does not work. If I could go back to the precious version I would, it was perfect.
Too expensive. I've used this app for 10 years and have generally liked it. However, the latest updates made it worse and now the price went from $25 a year to $100! I'll have to switch to a different app. Update 3-17-25. You want me pay a 400% increase or pay for fewer features AND help you fix the bugs? No thanks. what's wrong with the last update is yardages can be way off randomly when they were accurate and entering hole scores is difficult and inaccurate. Says scores i enter are wrong
