Definitely recommend! ### 5/5 — Fantastic! *2026-08-13, version 7.5.1* Best app for live scoring! Simple, easy and very comprehensible for all golfers. We used it with our group of 40 guys and it worked great. Highly recommend. ### 5/5 — Fantastic! *2026-05-18, version 7.5.1* What a great golf scoring and event app! I’ve tried out a number of different golf apps, and I have to say, Golfify is, in my opinion, by far the best one out there. It’s very intuitive and easy to use; the help and support areas are excellent, and James & Staff are very prompt in getting back to you with solutions to any problems you might experience. We’ve run this on a number of rounds with our group, and everyone loves the app. Especially the live leaderboard and messaging. No matter what game you are playing, Golfify handles it beautifully and does all the math. I would highly recommend this for anyone seriously looking for a golf app to create events, tournaments or just for simple scoring. Free for up to 8 players and very reasonably priced tiers above that. ### 5/5 — Love Golfify! *2026-05-18, version 7.5.1* We have a group of 12 retirees that enjoy a golf trip every year with one another. We have been using spreadsheets and old antiquated software in the past but switched to Golfify this year. We loved it! The guys loved seeing realtime updates to the tournament. It was easy to setup and use for our little more “experienced” group. ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-04-08, version 7.5.1* For a beginner wanting to get started it can be a bit daunting trying to find an app. And certainly not one you have to pay for when you might discover you don’t even enjoy the game. This app has been great for keeping track of scores and planning events. Easy to use. ### 5/5 — Great App for Societies *2026-03-11, version 7.1.0* Downloaded this app to help out my small golf society (only 8 of us). Wanted something where we could all score and keep an eye on how everyone was doing. It has made such a difference to our competitions and makes it a lot more fun seeing the live updates. Developers are brilliant and answer questions within 24 hours. It’s free for small societies like ours at the moment but if we got bigger I would pay the subscription to keep using the app. If there was one thing I’d like to see in the future is team badges or colours so we could assign players to teams at the start of each season. ### 5/5 — Easy to use and so much functionality *2026-03-09, version 7.1.0* Have used a number of other apps for previous trips. This one allows for so much personalisation and well worth the subscription. Great on line support as well ### 5/5 — Great App *2026-01-21, version 6.21.0* This is a great app. James and his team are very responsive…when asked to add a course that wasn’t listed. It was added within 48 hours without a problem. Great service! ### 4/5 — App *2026-01-18, version 6.21.0* Had some issues downloading scorecards. Waiting on the update to correct that. Also would love to see more scoring formats. Like par events, ect. ### 5/5 — Great for small groups! *2025-10-28, version 6.19.0* I was looking for something to use within our small group of 8 guys when at Myrtle Beach next year. After testing it out, this is going to add some new flavor to our games since both groups will see live how everyone is doing. App is also easy to use and can track multiple games. ## Frequently asked questions about Golfify ### What does Golfify do?
