But the map view doesn't work for me. Just a blank white screen. I see the app hasn't been updated in a couple years, maybe not ready for the latest iOS. This is an app I would definitely pay for if it was brought up to date and maintained. Update: the map view is now working. Maybe I made a mistake in the settings. This app is very very good. ### 4/5 — Best with one bug *2024-10-26* This is the best gps app by far, and I've tried them all. But the map view doesn't work for me. Just a blank white screen. I see the app hasn't been updated in a couple years, maybe not ready for the latest iOS. This is an app I would definitely pay for if it was brought up to date and maintained. **Developer response:** Hi Sam, Can you reach out to me at contact@golffrontier.com? I would like to better understand the issue you are experiencing with the map view. Thanks, John ### 2/5 — Do Not Need an Account. *2022-06-30, version 1.12* I downloaded this app yesterday, opened it today, deleted it. I would like to have a simple golf GPS app like I had 5 or more years ago to show me my yardages and keep score. I do not need it to do everything including wash my dishes, and I do not need an another account to hold my personal information. Any suggestions are welcome. ### 5/5 — BEST GOLF APP *2021-10-27* Super sleek design, very user friendly and fun to use! ## Frequently asked questions about Golf Frontier ### Does Golf Frontier have ads?
