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!

All around solid, could use a couple tweaks
UPDATE: new UI update is a straight downgrade in every way possible other than adding a shot tracking icon to the main face. Can’t see your +/- on the main face, they opted for a weather icon instead (hello I’m outside I can see what the weather is) and your current score is two swipes over, one through a premium only screen. Next it’s way more annoying to swap between holes in case you accidentally don’t click all the way through your score. The new score keeping system was probably made in a day, big text boxes instead of simple icons for things like fairway hit/miss. Tap through scoring until the last page where you have to scroll down, should be kept consistent either all scrolling are straight tapping through. Can be made way more streamlined too with icons instead of text boxes. New strokes screen is slightly better I guess. Par 3’s ask if I hit the fairway or not, that’s a straight regression. There is no fairway, it’s either a GIR or not. Going to throw off my driving stats because I can’t hit my irons, great Also, the biggest thing that told me whoever designed and approved this new UI doesn’t golf: the distances for front, middle, and back of the green. They have the front distance at the top of the screen and the back distance at the bottom. It’s not a huge deal, but it’s such an obvious oversight that it makes the entire UI feels rushed and messy. Every golf app I like nukes itself to the ground. First the Grint which had the perfect UI blew it all up and put it behind a paywall and now 18birdies. Guess it’s time to go to golfshot, sorry anyone who uses it, I’m sure they’re going to blow it up in a couples months too

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.
