Clunky and no live TV

I don’t know what else to say. At best, the PGA app is a fancy leaderboard without any live stream options, yet they want to know your location, track your usage and have access to multiple functions of your device. The PGA needs to learn something from The Masters instead of trying to have their fans spend more money to access the tournament via ESPN+. Very disappointing!

Slow and pathetic

The leaderboard is 30 minutes behind live play. It’s shotlink is two holes behind live. Pathetic app

Really user "unfriendly"

Very disapointing. Lessons should be taken from the creators of the Masters app! Looks and feels like a vintage app. Poor quality pictures (awful) pretty static transitions from section to section.

App working great but falls a little short

I am a huge fan of PGA Tourcast and the interactive ability it has for play by play. I am really missing that during this tournament which is why I can’t give the app a perfect rating.

Ads to watch highlights

When I click to watch a video of a single shot but am subjected to a 15-30 second ad before I can see the shot, you’ve lost the plot.

You were able to spend 9 figures on your Frisco complex…don’t try to pay for it through providing a horrible ad loaded app experience.
Be better than the PGA Tour’s media rights

Can’t search tee times

New complaint: I want to know when my favorite golfers are teeing off before the championships start. In order to do that, I need to manually scroll every tee time until I see my golfer, and I can’t favorite them in any way. Please include a search bar that filters like every other app in the world has with a long list.

Previous complaint:The shot trackers on the app is ahead of the score? I often see when I click on a players name to expand their scorecard that their scorecard has a score but the players score on the leaderboard isn’t updated? Why aren’t these in sync?

Good, not great

If you are a casual golf enthusiast like I am, you download major tournament apps the week of the event (t.ex: The Masters, PGA Championship, The Open). Not intimately familiar with the courses, I rely on the apps to show me the lay of the land.
The Masters excels at this. The flyover provided by The Masters allows me to see the hazards and possible risks of each hole. In the PGA Championship app we are afforded a 15-30 video that is not customizable. That is to say, if I want to drill down to the undulations of the greens, I cannot. Additionally, mind-jarring music accompanies these video bits. I would advise turning down your volume…

I enjoyed following my favorite golfers in The Masters. I was kept abreast with scores and exciting moments in real time. I do not see the same robust production of the golfers stories in this iteration of the PGA app.

Complaints aside, the PGA app is absolutely a must download if you care about golf-even if you watch golf as casually as I do.

Rubbish

Take a leaf out of how the slick Masters app is. App deleted!

So many ads

I get ads are a way to generate income but it’s an obnoxious amount on the this app. Also, the people in charge of developing and approving the app need to check out the Masters app - way easier to use and better formatting, live feeds, and building your own groups to watch, AND a live feed.

Content

This content is not available in your area. That is just stupid. I feel like a 2nd class citizen. Thanks for that.
