Golf Strokes Scorecard User Reviews

Top reviews

No frills

This app does a great job of helping you keep count of your strokes, which is the main reason I got it. I like that it measures the distance between shots. I do find that when I use the app my battery life gets crushed, and in many cases my watch dies before I finish an 18 hole course. I wish there was a way to choose whether to enable (1) gps and (2) the automatic fitness mode toggle.

Excellent

I have a few golf apps on my watch but this is my absolute favorite, I think the developer did a great job creating it, BRAVO to him. P.S. I use it as a disc golf scorecard and it works perfectly.

Great app

Used app the other day. Works great.
Would be nice if there was a choice to change yards to metres and found the app recorded more then one workout. Apart from that awesome.

Almost perfect but…

This watch app as a scorecard works GREAT. Intuitive, simple and just what I needed without a ton of other stuff I don’t want. I appreciate that you get movement and workout credit for closing your activity rings in the health app and keep the app in the forefront on the watch while playing without having to keep opening the app.

The BUT is for the things I wish it did.

1. (Even as a stand-alone watch app) I wish you could add a course name so you could know what course you played. For now I just screenshot my score. I don’t like the method but it’s not enough to dump the app at this point.

2. I wish it also had a phone app that you could save all your scores to. Or to be able to export your scores to something (like a note?) to be able to look back at etc.

Minor but not yet a dealbreaker.

Garbage app

It says purchased but will not load to my iphone… Makes me feel this is a scam app, can’t even delete it because it is still waiting to download.

Response from developer

This is an Apple Watch app

Keep giving it chances

Giving money for nothing long press doesn’t work..

Response from developer

Apple got rid of long press in the latest WatchOS version. The app is now updated (version 2.5) to include an "End Session" button.

Great potential, but I couldn’t keep it due to bugs

The app randomly starts workouts, draining the watch battery quickly. I had to delete it because of the intense battery drain. I’d be interested in trying it again once the bug is fixed.

Response from developer

The app records a workout so that it can remain in the foreground while golfing. Otherwise you would need to reopen the app for every stroke or hole. You can enable power saving mode in the WatchOS workouts settings if you don't want this functionality.

Broken features

This app has a cool design but seems broken in its current state. The “clear scores” buttons do not work and so I had to manually clear the scores for each hole before a new session. This essentially rendered the app unusable for me.

Response from developer

Hi thanks for catching this bug. This happened because of a change Apple made from WatchOS 6 to WatchOS 7. The clear scores buttons now work again if you update to version 2.4

Great watch app for keeping track of your strokes

The last few version enhancements have caused the activity tracker for exercise and move calories to keep incrementing while the app is running. I used to love the app for it’s simplicity in golf shot tracking and score keeping but I’ve removed it from my watch because of the issues.

Response from developer

Hi thanks for catching this bug. The activity now stops tracking after 15 minutes of inactivity if you update to version 2.4

Amazing Watch UI

The developer’s approach to UI/UX for a watch app is really great design and use of the small watch screen. This watch app is perfect for basic round scoring with friends and lets you focus on play and enjoying the day!

Timesaver

Great app, no more fiddling with pencil and paper to keep track of the score!
