Golf Sync is the group-chat-that-actually-golfs for your weekend foursome — and the league that grew out of it. Stop coordinating tee times in five separate text threads. Stop spreadsheeting handicaps. Snap a paper scorecard and watch every hole fill in by itself. WHAT IT DOES Tee-time polls that actually settle. Pick three Saturdays. Your foursome votes. The thread closes itself when you have four. No more "is anyone in for 8 a.m.?" left on read. Snap a paper scorecard. Our AI reads pars, yardages, and your strokes from a photo in 10 seconds. Works on the napkin-sized scorecard your club hands you. No typing. Clubhouse Chat for your group. One tap to start a new chat. Group threads for your league, DMs for your foursome, picker for the people you actually play with. No more searching three apps for who said what. Group rounds with money in. Track who paid, who's playing, who's the marker. Your league owner sees who needs to Venmo without chasing. Tournaments built for organizers. Stableford with USGA-correct stroke index. Net allocation. Countback tiebreaks. Multi-course tournaments — run a 4-week league across 4 different courses. Per-flight leaderboards so your A-flight isn't reading off the same board as the scratch golfers. Live leaderboards your foursome can refresh on the cart path. Team play, including Ryder Cup style (preview). Two-team format, match play scoring, points roll up to the team — same shape as the tournament you watched on TV last September. Jump straight from your league page to whatever's live. Per-hole detail that respects your time. Pars, yardages, gross + net on every scorecard, hole-by-hole. Standard mode for "just strokes." Advanced mode when you actually want to track GIR, putts, fairways. Polls that reach everyone. League owners post a poll, every member gets an email — so the people who don't open the app every day still vote. Multi-question support for the "where are we playing next month and who's bringing the beer" kind of post. Peer-rated partners. Played with someone? Rate their pace, etiquette, honesty. Build a private profile of who you want to play with — only visible after multiple independent reviews so it stays honest. WHO IT'S FOR Weekend foursomes who book the same Saturday tee time week after week. Organized groups — the ten friends who play together every weekend but don't call it a "league." Polls, chat, roster, scoring. No tournament setup required. Casual leagues — Stableford, scrambles, Ryder Cup weekends, club championships — where the organizer is one person with a real job. Tournament organizers who want a leaderboard they're not building from a Google Sheet. WHAT'S DIFFERENT We don't send you generic "rounds in your area" notifications. We don't badge-gate features behind ads. We don't make you type your scorecard. Free through June 30, 2026 — no credit card required. After that, the free plan stays free for everyone who plays in someone else's league. New membership options for league and tournament organizers are coming in a future update. Built by a former weekend-foursome organizer who got tired of texting six people to lock in a Saturday tee time. Voice-powered scoring Record your score, ask for the current leaderboard, or look up your round without breaking your swing rhythm. Works with Siri on iOS. Snap-a-card Already wrote your round on a paper scorecard? Snap a photo and the app reads every hole automatically.

If you open your event before you've picked your name from the team list, the app now takes you straight to that list instead of showing an error. ### v.6.10.0 — 2026-09-10 Hand the phone to your hole volunteer without hunting for the right screen — the volunteer check now sits right under the scores it is signing for, on whichever card you are looking at. And a score a volunteer already signed is no longer frozen: fix it, and the hole simply asks to be signed again. • The volunteer check is attached to the bottom of your scorecard, on the hole you are on • Correct a score after it has been signed — it still counts, and the hole is marked for re-signing • Shotgun starts: your card opens on your group's hole and plays in your order, so a group starting on 7 reads "thru 6" after six holes • Sponsor holes and mulligans follow the hole you are actually playing ### v.6.9.5 — 2026-09-08 Scoring a group just got simpler. The volunteer check now lives right inside the scorecard, under the same rows your group just filled in — no second screen, no re-reading the same four names twice. Rounds with hole volunteers now open on the all-players view, so the phone carrying your group's card starts on the screen it's actually scored from. Scramble and best-ball rounds can now be signed by a hole volunteer too. ### v6.9.3 — 2026-09-08 Scorecards now draw the round you're actually playing — a 10-hole putt putt round shows 10 holes, not a blank back nine. Putt putt rounds no longer ask which tees you're on, and the team board shows your Total instead of a to-par number that doesn't apply. Mistyped a tournament code? You can now enter a different one instead of getting stuck. Golf Sync XP events have their own spot on your dashboard and open straight to the event — no more landing on the request form. Scores you enter while service is spotty now say plainly that they're waiting to send, and they send. ### v6.9.0 — 2026-09-06 Putt putt & scramble rounds, from the phone Volunteer check at every hole. The player keeping the card hands their phone to the hole volunteer, who reads the group's scores, fixes any mistake, enters their code, and locks the hole. Affirmed holes show as locked on the card. Check-in desk works for walk-ons. Search the roster by name or team, check people in with one tap, and seat a new group with names only. The scorecard matches the round. A ten-hole round shows ten holes — no phantom back nine. Par 1 and par 2 holes can now be set from the phone on putt putt rounds, with an "All par 2" shortcut. Scores stay with their owner. A score saved offline on a borrowed phone now syncs to the right player's card. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
