## What is ForeLore?

Every round has a story.

The best part of golf isn't the score. It's sitting down after, swapping stories about how the round went. The drive you crushed, that putt that lipped out, and the shank that had you ready to give it all up.

But what if you didn't play that round with your friends? What if they're not around to talk shop with?

ForeLore is a golf diary built for exactly that. Log your round hole by hole and it comes back to life... every shot replayed over the course you played, your voice riding along with it. Not 18 numbers. Not a scorecard that you file away. A round you get to keep.

Keep the ones you never want to lose. Share the rest with the people who weren't there, the friends who moved away and the family back home, who get to watch the whole thing unfold in dramatic fashion.  

It isn't a social feed and it isn't a stat sheet. It's the round, to keep and share.

Your first three rounds are free. I've always hated apps that ask for your credit card before you even get to try them out. I figured I'd build an app that makes someone go "alright he deserves a buck a month for this".

That dollar a month lets you record and share as many rounds as you want. It will always be free for family and friends to watch.

A lot has landed since the last update.

NEW WAYS TO PLAY
Nine-hole rounds. Record a front nine or a back nine without
padding it out to eighteen.
2-Ball 9. Play two balls over nine holes, watch them race, and
get a total for each.

SHARING
Share a round with anyone by email. No friend request, no
waiting for them to accept.
Send to several people at once.

MY ROUNDS
Folders, so your rounds aren't one endless list. Make your own,
or use the built-in views that group by course, by year, or by
your favorites.
Star a round to favorite it.

WATCHING A ROUND BACK
Every hole now ends on the verdict. Birdie, par, double,
whatever you earned, named as the headline.
Record a voice note on any hole and it plays while the round
plays. On a two-ball round, each ball gets its own.
A hole and par card while you watch, plus a scorecard you can
tap to jump to any hole.
Shot animations got a pass, including a rebuilt shank.

NEW TO FORELORE
A short intro the first time you open the app.
A sample round waiting in My Rounds, so you can watch a real
one before you record your own.
Course Builder now explains itself on the way in.

SUBSCRIPTION
ForeLore is $0.99 a month for unlimited rounds and sharing.
Your first three rounds are free, and watching rounds people
share with you is always free.

Plus a pile of fixes.
