I can access internet, calls, heck even YouTube but not your servers ... and I paid for the premium version. 3 rounds in a row now!

Have used many times on iPhone which works well but used a lot of battery.
When using Apple watch found that it would sometimes drop out and not accept input of strokes played. Also metres was wrong several times which made me think it was using the phone for distance which was sitting in the buggy rather than using the watch location ??

Some considerations that would be really nice?

You know that golf is played outside the 50 United States, don’t you? Well how’s about some of your avalanche of ads, promotions, sales and sweetener offers be available to the rest of the world?
On the app functioning. Displaying the registered hole distance would be really helpful. Yes, the important thing is distance to hole, but if you want to let a playing partner know how far he hit it you cannot because you aren’t tracking their shots, and if you forget (or can’t be inspired enough to take the time or, more to the point, the distraction) to track every one of your own during a competition round, when you get to your ball and look at the app, we’ll, you’re stuffed.
It’s not bad otherwise. Worth persevering with.

Love it

Great App, so easy to use. Has let me down once or twice by refusing to get going on the course, but have accepted that as ok for something using so much technology. Works reasonably well with Apple Watch but sometimes the comms with phone don’t get through and also sometimes the score update on the watch won’t work.

UNUSABLE for Stableford in Australia

 – 
Tim Waterson
 – 
2018-01-02
Great App, but given the well accepted tradition of 'picking up' in Stableford competitions it impossible to score any rounds where you have done this and maintain your stats, without making some scores up, unless of course you score every hole. It is compulsory to score detail about your putting and drive which is great, but sometimes you just need basic scoring so it should have an option for that. Easy things for the developer to fix, will re-rate when resolved.

I use the app to track my history and it's generally great. However on my local course the stableford score is overstated on a few holes, even though the the correct stroke index is shown. Is this a widespread issue on other courses?
