How many advertisements?
Other than the advertisements and having to clear them out every hole, it’s great
One issue
So I had a problem with some of the holes at my club showing incorrect pars. They would change in the middle of the round. My course is a Par 73 and it was showing up as a 74 or higher. Very frustrating. After going back & forth with support and they telling me the issue was corrected (it wasn’t), I found the problem in my own. If I entered my scores in the app, everything was correct but if I entered them on my watch the pars changed. Now that I know this everything is correct. I advised support and they’re working on a fix.

Cluttered and Not reliable
The app is far from intuitive. As a beginner golfer I just want something to help me improve and works well with the BT devices I’ve invested in. It crashes any time I try to edit a past hole or past round. I couldn’t care less about the leaderboard of social aspects of the app, they just take up space. Really starting to regret my purchases of the captain pro rangefinder and player pro speaker. I was excited for the rainmaker before all the poor feedback started coming out. Invest less in social media influencers and invest more in the reliability and usability of your products. Unlikely I will be extending my subscription once it runs out.

Basic features locked behind subscription
The fact that keeping score is locked behind a subscription is insane
Best products in the game!
There’s a lot of competitors trying to dupe and recreate what Blue Tees has done with speakers and products and it can’t be done. They’re the lululemon of golf tech rangefinders and speakers! Best app and products in the biz.
Error after error
Just got this and it won’t download any course tried different course, by cell signal and WiFi. VERY disappointing and I just got a blue tees launch monitor that review will be coming next.
Very Buggy - Please fix
The app is a great idea but it is plagued with bugs that make using it very frustrating. It DOES NOT sync with the Rainmaker (launch monitor) and so you have to enter your club details manually. Support says that syncing is coming, but it is very disappointing to ship both an expensive product (Rainmaker is $700) plus a premium app ($99/year) to have ZERO syncing. I was using the app this week on two rounds; I was counting on the app to give me yardage but the app kept saying the center of the pin was 999 yards every other hold. It ended up being completely useless. Also, note that your bag randomly changes every so often. On the eighth hole, my 9 iron just disappeared. If the company is reading these reviews, please put some serious time and energy into fixing the issues!

The spam for the subscription is insane
I don’t need every 2-3 holes the screen on the speaker pushing for the subscription. I was going to get it when I bought the speaker but now I just refuse to because it’s so annoying. Ridiculous whoever thought this was a good idea
Not worth the money
We get 4 months of golf in Canada. This thing hasn’t worked well. Keep being told to wait for update. One day nothing works, next weekend only music will play. Next time I go to use it, only the gps works. Not worth the $250 price. Buy a cheap speaker & a rangefinder. If I could get my money back I would but only get 30 days.

Terrible App
Cannot create an account, the app won’t move past the first page. I also can’t report an issue for the same reason. The app and the device is useless.
Not working
Not able to login
Thanks a lot!
Day 2 of owning and the app crashes and it’s useless. It’s a glorified JBL speaker if the app isn’t working
Love it
Easy to use and navigate
Response from developer
Hello George thank you very much for your feedback here! Exciting new features are on the way. Stay tuned!
Won’t let me create account
App is terrible can’t even create a account for a speaker I paid $250 for do not
Incorrect Pars
I have had repeated problems with incorrect pars showing on the app. i .e. A par 5 showing as a par 3 etc. The app shows the correct par for all 18 holes when I open the app but during the course of play, random holes will then show with incorrect pars. I have reported this several times and they say it’s corrected but it’s not. I have the current version 1.16.0 and the most current iOS. I’ve rebooted my iPhone and deleted and then reinstalled the app to no avail.

Is this “Words with Friends,” or a Golf Round?
After reading a review of the Blue Tees rangefinder, I thought the app integration sounded fantastic, but before buying the rangefinder, I wanted to explore the app.
Impossible.
After going through the registration process, I couldn’t find a way to a course flyover option without signing up for a $79.00 subscription (for the love of God, can I just explore the app first?!).
Plus, the graphics remind me of an arcade game, and having grown up on the tenth hole of a golf course... well... “arcade” is not the vibe for me. I mean, is this Words with Friends or a golf Round?
I will stick with TheGrint and buy their Autograph series rangefinder.
Two stars because at least it has hardware integration into a system, which might be important enough to some people for them to overlook the arcade feel and splash screen abuse.
Cheers

Weird lock in
No clear way to cancel membership after trial. They will lock you in and make it difficult to cancel after charging your card.

App and gps needs work
There’s a few pros and cons:
pros: the music application and controls are excellent.
Cons: app doesn’t keep score without an upgrade
Lose gps and can’t get the correct gps signal

Course maps do not save
I’ve contacted support about this but received a canned response. I’ve downloaded my course map at my regular course and it does not save. I have to download the app each time.
