Accurate yardage, easy to use. Keep your scores

Love the app, wish there were a la carte premium offerings

I love the app, I hate how watch scoring used to be a free feature and is now locked behind the premium subscription. Now, Iโ€™m not an idiot. The service the app offers costs money to run and if they arenโ€™t profitable they canโ€™t run it. But watch scoring is literally the only pro feature Iโ€™m interested in and I canโ€™t justify $60 a year to use it 8-10 times a season if Iโ€™m lucky. If there was an a la carte option for a few dollars a month, Iโ€™d buy it instantly and Iโ€™d be converted from a free user to a paying subscriber. Of course, I know that takes development time to build, and maybe the devs have already thought of that and it wouldnโ€™t be worth the time. But, a man can dream.

Response from developer

Hi! Thank you for the review and we apologize for any inconvenience. However, we do offer a Monthly Membership you can get through the App or Website, for $7.99/Month. You can stop that Membership whenever you can't play and then purchase it again when you are back on the Course. If you have any questions, please email us at contactus@thegrint.com

Worst user experience

If you're only using your phone, 18 birdies has a better and fresher interface. Grint maybe has better stats but it's negligible.

If you're using a watch, it would be a contender for top app, but the distances update painfully slow. You've gotta stand still for 10 seconds before you've got an accurate distance. Holds up play. In addition to that, if the course map on the watch allowed you to place a target and get an exact distance to target this could be the #1 apple watch golf app.

The preset hazard distances are ok when they update quickly, but sometimes I just want to know the front instead of back distance or how much runway I have in a certain direction. Or how far to hit too get back on the fairway. And having to go back to the phone instead of having it on wrist is a definite downside.

Best golf app!

Best app for using on the course. 4.5 Stars ๐Ÿ‘

Apple Watch

LOVED this app until they took away the capability to connect with an Apple Watch (free). You now need to pay for that feature, and it just isnโ€™t worth it.

Nope not worth it

Had this on my Apple Watch Ultra 2 and for some reason it would not do the back 9 of the course I played yesterday and glitched another time. So removed it back to my golf watch.

Good time out

Great round. Course was in great condition

Rough and a rough

More mowing at lower heights for the rough. Shot was like the naughty neighbour who never cuts his grass.

Great golf app

Excellent app for getting ranges and keeping scores. Havenโ€™t used a scorecard since getting the app

Crashes

App crashes every time I try to add a manual score
