### 2/5 — Buggy, doesn’t work

*2023-07-21, version 2.3.12*

Doesn’t calculate handicap for wolf. App crashes often in the middle of a game and will not continue.

### 2/5 — App crashes

*2023-06-08, version 2.3.12*

It’s a good app when functional. Right now it crashes constantly.

### 1/5 — Scorecard for our golf club

*2021-06-09*

The app looks great but doesn’t have our updated scorecard with the new handicap holes. Sent golf bettor our new score card two weeks ago and still not updated. Oshawa Golf and Country Club in Oshawa  Ontario Canada .How long does it to make the proper changes?? The Nassau game you can not switch amounts either. We play 5-10-5. Love to get my money back and use an app that works before the season is over.

### 5/5 — Great app, has all the games, easy to use!

*2021-03-24, version 1.1.11*

I play several times per week in a group that likes to bet. We end up having multiple team bets, cross group bets and indies. This app makes it SO easy to keep track of everyone’s scores but also all the bets. When you finish the round all the bets and payouts are clearly displayed. 

I have tried as many betting apps as I could find. Glad I don’t need to spend any more time. Golf Bettor is the app. Highly recommended!

### 5/5 — Finally!!!!

*2021-03-23, version 1.1.11*

Thank God.  Finally an app that put an end to the chaos of multiple bets, indies, etc!  Why ha it taken this long for something this important to come out!

### 5/5 — Like to play Nassau? You need this app.

*2021-03-22, version 1.1.11*

I’ve tried the majority of golf apps on the App Store and this is hands down the best bet tracking app there is. 

I have a regular foursome group who likes to play heads up Nassau individually so we end up with 6 matches to keep track of plus we autopress, so it’s a nightmare to track on paper. This is such a time saver!

### 1/5 — App won’t calc course handicap per hole and won’t let you modify scorecard

*2021-03-06, version 1.1.11*

DAN

### 5/5 — Best I’ve found

*2020-09-27, version 1.1.8*

I searched so many different apps to do what this one does perfectly.  And support for getting tees updated was great as well.  Top notch and use it often to keep track of games.

### 4/5 — Good app, needs Stableford

*2020-09-10, version 1.1.8*

App does what it’s supposed to do. UI for the scorecard and navigating to the game scores could be improved, but most importantly, Stableford format needs to be added ASAP.

### 5/5 — Very useful and easy to use!

*2020-08-28, version 1.1.8*

It is awesome to be able to track the constant presses and side bets with my buddies on the course! I found this app after my buddies and I got tired of tracking our wolf hammer bets after each hole. But, this app does it all for me!

### 1/5 — Login Customer Service

*2026-01-06, version 2.3.15*

I have sent several  emails asking for help on my login.  I forgot password and app will not let me reset it.

### 1/5 — It may be a SCAM!

*2025-09-06, version 2.3.15*

Did not honor the one week free. I signed up and cancelled the app the next day. And a week later I was charged the yearly $9.99 membership. I want a refund, which I will probably not going to get. SCAM!

### 1/5 — Wager miscalculations

*2025-06-09, version 2.3.15*

I’ve noticed a few examples when using the app that it miscalculates the dollar amounts won/lost. I’ve contacted the developer several times to make them aware of this issue but have heard no response.  These things happen, but the unwillingness to fix any bugs should give people a reason to pause when considering the purchase of this app.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2025-02-18, version 2.3.15*

Tried to bill me $19.98 out of the gate.  NOT the advertised price.  And no terms of service available. Careful

### 1/5 — App isn’t current with courses

*2024-05-19, version 2.3.15*

App wasn’t event close to being correct on a course that has been open for almost a year…

### 1/5 — Courses not up to date

*2024-04-29, version 2.3.15*

First time I wanted to use the app they didn’t have Flying Horse, the one course I wanted to use it for. Subscription canceled.

### 1/5 — Only courses in USA?

*2023-06-29, version 2.3.12*

Got this app, no European courses. Ripped off.

### 1/5 — This app does NOT sync with GHIN

*2022-12-07, version 2.3.10*

This app DOES NOT SYNC with GHIN. I have to manually go in and update not just my own handicap, but three other partners registered with Golf Bettor who are also showing incorrect GHIN handicaps. Therefore, in order to use this app successfully, you will have to go in and cross reference all golfers on the GHIN app to make sure they’re handicapped are correct. Seriously? They expect us to do that?  Especially since, handicap indexes now changes on a daily basis. I’ve called technical support multiple times. They have no solutions.

### 1/5 — Cannot Cancel

*2022-02-10, version 2.1.9*

No easy way to cancel this app, if you do not like it.

### 1/5 — Missing popular courses

*2021-08-04, version 2.0.2*

Would have loved this app but their course list appears to be out dated or incomplete.  The two courses I regularly play aren’t in the database… making the app unusable.  Please add TPC Colorado and The club at Ravenna.. both which are top rated courses in Colorado.  Or a way to manually add a course info?

### 5/5 — Great App

*2023-09-06, version 2.3.14*

Love this app. Saves us at least 2 hours and arguments figuring bets after the round!!

### 5/5 — Hands Down the Best

*2023-05-02, version 2.3.12*

My wife got me a subscription to this app and boy do I love it. Me and all my buddies have it now and we use it every-time we golf. It makes things real simple. I love sneaking out to play skins with the boys every weekend.

### 5/5 — Quick responses!

*2023-01-31, version 2.3.10*

On a trip to Laredo Mexico to play TPC Danzante Bay, we didn’t have the course in “Bettor”.  We were on a week long trip, texted support, and they got the course setup quickly for the rest of our trip!   Nice to see customer service, QUICK !

### 5/5 — Best Golf Scoring App

*2022-07-31, version 2.3.1*

Easy to use. Easy to read. Lots of formats. I’ve been looking for a scoring app that handles five player nassaus and 6-6-6 matches (teams switch every six holes).  This one handles them, along with a lot more. And it’s easy to use on a phone, especially entering scores. Fast and large characters. And if you have questions the developer is very responsive.

### 5/5 — Best out there

*2022-05-26, version 2.2.1*

Best betting app for golf. Would like to see the ability to set bets for less than a $1 supported.

### 5/5 — Gold standard for golf $ games

*2021-08-29, version 2.1.1*

The best app for managing $ golf games. Believe me, I’ve tested them all. This app is a powerful game changer that replaces pencil and paper and errors that go with it, which in the process speeds up rounds. They’ve thought of everything including all golf games worth playing, allowing games be easily customized. Intuitive interface makes easy work of large groups and all degrees of complexity. The best part is real-time results and shareable reports once done. The developer is responsive and eager to make improvements. Each update is better than the last.

### 5/5 — Awesome for groups!

*2021-08-09, version 2.0.2*

Love this app. Super easy to keep track of bets and scores in a single group or throughout multiple. Plus my mom loves being able to keep up with my rounds from home!

### 5/5 — Great concept! And it works!

*2021-07-28, version 1.2.1*

It is so easy to use snd keep track during your round. Plus I really like that I can see at any point in the round how the bets are going. Another feather is that it automatically loads each person’s handicap for that course and tee box which not only saves time but makes it easy to calculate who is getting strokes etc and immediately. I have recommend this to dozens of people and will continue to do so.

### 5/5 — Perfect tool for golfers who bet

*2021-06-15, version 1.1.11*

This app is super easy to use and you can customize any of the games. It makes golf betting so much easier.

### 5/5 — Great golf app

*2021-05-13, version 1.1.11*

Our group of 8-20 uses this app every Friday. It is really a great way to keep track of all the multiple bets. You can change bets during the round. Huge success and helps avoid conflicts with so many participants. Luv it!
