Golfshot: Golf GPS + Caddie

Hal Perison

I like the interface of this app however the GPS consumes a lot of battery power. My cell is almost depleted after 18 and am concerned that I need to bring along a battery pack. Unlike other similar apps which only consume 1/3 of my battery after 18. Reducing the effectiveness of the GPS seemed to create tracking issues and connectivity. If power consumption was not an issue I would have given a better rating. I think I will stay with my current app.

I like the features but the app in unreliable. I have to start every round twice because it freezes the first time, every time. I travel between California and Hawaii. Only California courses show up. Cannot access courses outside the Cal Bay Area. FYI...I have paid for the Pro Version. Submitted a support email. We will see how this is handled. Hope I can get my $$$ back if it can't be fixed. Only use app w/my phone. I do not sync with a watch. NOTE: SUPPORT RESPONDED WITH A FIX FOR COURSE ACCESS IN HOURS. HAD TO UN-RE INSTALL. IT WORKED. PROBLEM WITH APP FREEZING STILL NOT ADDRESSED.

I have been using golfshot for years, but ever since the last update it has stopped recognising handicaps properly for me. When I set my handicap to 18 it no longer give me a shot on every hole. As such it won't work out my points correctly. Not sure if this can be fixed or not, but if it cannot be fixed I will no longer be using the app and moving to soemthing else. This is a great shame as I have 3 years of data on my account

It stopped working on my Active 2 golf edition watch. I see similar comments from other Samsung smart watch users that it worked absolutely fine until the July 22 update. It still works on my phone but it stopped communicating with the watch. I hope it gets corrected because it was fairly accurate and useful. UPDATE: developer contacted me with an update to the update and it works again as of 7/30/21

Nice app, very helpful and simple to use on the most part. Some odd features to the whole system though, my friends who I golf with, added me as a friend on the system but it seems to have no impact, I cant add them to my rounds, see the scores or anything. Seems pointless? Also feel like there must be a way to start round with friends and log each others scores whilst updating their profiles from one device, I cant figure out how but the user guides seem to indicate there is a way.

My friends have this app for Apple and it works great! I tried the trial on my galaxy 4 watch and it's terrible. If you use you phone just to get distances it's ok, but if you want to use your watch that's when it comes up short.
