## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2019-05-15, version 4.3.2*

Doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Flakey

*2017-03-25, version 2.2.3*

Since being introduced in 2014, it would appear that very little work has been done to work out the kinks. I just finished working in a ladies collegiate tournament and this app is flakey. It continually reloads as if it has a case of the hiccups. It would be nice if Golfweek got serious about this app and gave it some serious attention because it desperately needs help.

### 1/5 — Horrible Non-Native app

*2017-02-06, version 2.2.3*

For a company that charges SO MUCH MONEY to colleges for their scoring service, the app has been, and continues to be, pure garbage. 

This app is all a bunch of WebViews (website pages inside an app) linked together, instead of taking the time and making the effort to build a native app that actually works properly. 

This thing is incredibly slow, unresponsive, with those web pages loading with tiny links that often times take you to the wrong place. 

It is time for GolfStat to take iOS and mobile in general seriously and develop a native app that can deliver.

This thing truly deserves Zero stars until it gets redone properly.

### 1/5 — Terrible Update

*2016-10-11, version 2.1*

Major glitches with this update. Back and refresh don't work correctly (these are crucial!!). Way too many colors on the new scorecard. Too confusing... no reason to make pars a different color.

### 1/5 — Update

*2016-10-04, version 2.1*

The new update is worse. The back button does not work (refreshes or takes you back to the homepage) and why are birdies blue and bogeys red? Doesn't make any sense. Fix it

### 1/5 — Latest version is broken

*2016-10-03, version 2.1*

Back button doesn't work. You get stuck!

### 2/5 — Get it right, golfstat.

*2018-03-03, version 3.1*

Live scoring on shotgun starts needs to be shown on starting hole. If a player starts on 8, the score is posted on 1. Very confusing.

### 3/5 — Needs a Refresh Button!

*2019-04-01, version 4.3.2*

If this app had a refresh button for the tournament pages... I would have given it 5 stars. That’s how important a refresh button is to the functionality. Hard to believe they do not have one.

### 4/5 — Favorites

*2021-09-09, version 4.3.5*

It would be great to have “favorites” as an option so I don’t have to take several steps and keep searching the school each time.

### 4/5 — Golfstat

*2014-01-27, version 1.0.6*

Useful app. Easier to use than the website. However you can see the team standing. It only shows the individual leaderboard.

## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Previous review

*2018-05-18, version 3.2*

I can tell you the previous comment is not true, shotgun scoring has always been displayed starting on the hole it starts on.

### 5/5 — Much better!

*2014-03-10, version 1.0.9*

Even after installing the app, I was still using the website cause I didn't like navigating around the app and how it showed the scores. After the most recent update, it looks much much better!

### 4/5 — Brilliant

*2014-01-27, version 1.0.6*

Armature Golf has been needing an app like this. Hopefully there will be updates as we go along. Glad there is finally an app to follow live scoring!!!
