### 1/5 — Disappointing at best

*2022-08-05, version 1.1.2*

I’m amazed that they released an app that is so defective.

### 1/5 — Bad

App sucks

### 1/5 — Does Not work

*2021-12-05*

This App is so bad. Please develope a working app

### 1/5 — Subscription

*2021-10-16, version 1.1.2*

Subscription monthly, doesnt tell you until you install the app

### 1/5 — Horrible Tracking and Even Harder To Edit

*2021-09-15, version 1.1.2*

I took a great Tee shot and the tracker showed it in the next fairway. It didn’t catch the draw back. I tried editing and now had 2 lines instead of one and I couldn’t get around their automatic line even though I put it in manual. So frustrated with this, I’m on the hunt for a new app.

### 1/5 — Don’t Pay for this

*2021-08-27, version 1.1.2*

Not worth even the $3. The tracking ability is okay at best, but the user interface is just awful. To the point it makes me wonder if it ever went through any sort of testing.

### 1/5 — Dont even waste the 1 min download time

*2021-08-22, version 1.1.2*

Don’t bother this app doesn’t work at all crashes all the time

### 1/5 — Not worth downloading

*2021-08-22, version 1.1.2*

Crashes every single time I try to trace ball or save a video. Basically crashes no matter what you do. Waste of time.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2021-07-17, version 1.1.2*

This app seriously needs to be revamped. This is so terribly made. I believe this app and the other shot tracer app are made by the same people. This one wants to charge $2 a month for a useless app that doesn’t work.

### 1/5 — Can’t save the video … so bad

*2021-07-12*

Don’t buy it

### 1/5 — 환불해주세요

*2021-07-08*

어플이 그냥 꺼지네요

### 1/5 — Sub-Par

*2021-07-02, version 1.1.2*

Terrible app, crashes every time you try to export to camera roll. On the upside they had a free trial which allowed me to try out the product and discover that it was a big pile of garbage and for that, we thank you.

### 1/5 — absolutely awful

*2021-06-17, version 1.1.2*

does not work at all

### 1/5 — 안맞아

### 1/5 — Just so many bugs and not easy to work with

*2025-02-19, version 1.1.2*

I will not buy and request my money back if there is any charge. The app is filled with bugs, editor won’t work properly and most travers are not accurate. Don’t waste your time.

### 1/5 — Absolutely Raggad

*2023-08-04, version 1.1.2*

This app is terrible. I tried it and I spent 40 minutes trying to actually work the thing. I got my brother and Dad to do it and they couldn’t. The automatic tracker doesn’t work. 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼

### 1/5 — Use another app

*2023-07-06, version 1.1.2*

Difficult to use. Doesn’t work. Only interested in asking you to subscribe. Couldn’t make a single video work.

### 1/5 — Never worked well

*2023-04-19, version 1.1.2*

Very glitchy, have tried many different ways but each time you set a start point if you begin to play with the ball flight it eventually reverts back ti firs settings

Not worth your time

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2023-03-21, version 1.1.2*

I want my money back , the Lines everything it’s doesn’t work scam

### 1/5 — Pathetic app

*2023-02-18, version 1.1.2*

Two big issues. 
1. You have to pay for an app that should be a free app. Too many flaws to pay for. 
2. When I import a video clip, sometimes the video gets rotated 90 degrees. When I edit the video to trace the ball it’s fine, but after I’m done it rotates 90 degrees, while the trace is exactly how I set it up. It’s a total mess

### 1/5 — Not as expected

*2023-01-26, version 1.1.2*

Takes a long time to load and doesn’t even track my ball at all :/ I’d provide proof but can’t

### 1/5 — Embarrassingly Bad

*2022-11-08, version 1.1.2*

So terrible! I tried 10 different videos to trace and not one was correct. Worst golf tracer app!

### 1/5 — Totally not accurate

*2022-09-17, version 1.1.2*

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2022-08-15, version 1.1.2*

### 5/5 — So disappointing

*2022-07-11, version 1.1.2*

This app is not good because you can literally make the ball do whatever you want like it’s fake bro

### 5/5 — Works great!

*2020-03-30, version 1.1.2*

Works great after watching the tutorial. At first was a user error. Great app!

### 5/5 — Just NOT good

*2019-11-17, version 1.1.2*

Difficult to set up, when you hit record you can’t see it working until you use the play back. Just rubbish

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2019-06-09, version 1.1.2*

Amazing

### 5/5 — My favorite golf app of all time

I love the simplicity of the app. Tracks the ball right away and don’t need any internet connection for it to work 👍

### 5/5 — The best!

*2018-08-12, version 1.0*

Was really great to try the app for a few days for free before committing. Golf Shot Tracer Works as advertised and I’m very happy with my awesome new Golf app.

### 5/5 — Absolutely genius!!!

*2018-08-12, version 1.0*

This app is so cool. I usually don’t write reviews but in this app’s case I had to. Very simple to use and tons of great features. By far the best golf app.

### 5/5 — Really very simple 👍

*2018-08-09, version 1.0*

Wonderful golf app that is very simple to use and tracks the ball perfectly each time. Great work!

### 5/5 — Awesome bird’s eye view of my golf shots!

*2018-08-09, version 1.0*

The 3D map feature is very cool! Great way to see the shot from a bird’s eye view. Love sharing the map videos along with the tracer videos on my instagram page. Those videos get a lot of views and great feedback!

### 4/5 — Bien mais filtre les vidéos

*2022-10-23*

L’app est pas mal mais j’ai un problème, elle ajoute automatiquement un filtre sur mes vidéos qui est impossible à retirer…
