## What is Halved?

Halved keeps score for the games golfers really play. Set up a round, pick your games, enter scores hole by hole, and Halved does the rest — live results, handicaps, a shareable spectator web page, and an easy settle-up at the end.

GAMES YOU CAN PLAY • Skins, with optional carryover • Nassau — front, back, overall, with presses • Las Vegas — 2v2 team game • Sixes — 2v2 best ball with rotating partners • Wolf • Rabbit • Survivor — three players, last one standing takes the hole • Points 5-3-1 • Stableford, with a custom points table • Spots — a side game for one-putts, sandies, barkies and more • Match Play • Stroke Play • Multi-Group Skins across foursomes • One-round team cup

CASUAL ROUNDS Playing with friends? Start a round, choose one or more games, and assign players and tees. Halved tracks every hole and shows who's ahead in real time.

PLAY WITH FRIENDS Add a golfer by phone number and send a text invite in one tap. When a friend adds you to a round — or invites you to watch one — it shows up right on your own Casual Rounds and Tournaments lists, clearly flagged so you know whether you're playing or just following along.

GROUP CHAT & LIVE FEED Every round has a group chat and a live feed that calls out birdies and key moments as they happen — so the whole group can follow the action, even players in other groups.

TOURNAMENTS Running something bigger? Halved supports multiple foursomes, several games at once, and multi-round events — with live leaderboards, team cup play, and formats like Irish Rumble, Pink Ball, and Singles.

FIND YOUR COURSE FAST Just start typing a course name and pick it from one list — your own courses, a shared catalog, and a full course database, all in a single search.

HANDICAPS YOUR WAY Score net (with an adjustable handicap percentage), gross, or strokes-off-the-low-player — set per game to match how your group plays. Every scorecard shows exactly where each player gets a stroke, hole by hole, so the handicap is never a mystery.

SETTLE UP At the end of the round, the Settlement tab nets every game into one summary and shows exactly who owes whom — plus the fewest payments to square up. Settle in seconds, with no spreadsheets and no napkin math.

Halved is built for friendly play among friends. It tracks informal stakes for scoring purposes only and does not process payments.


## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.6.0 — 2026-08-19

A brand-new game, and a cup that's easier to build:

• Survivor — a new game for three players. Everyone plays the hole and the worst score is knocked out; the two left standing then play the next hole head-to-head to take it. Win one and a fresh Survivor starts on the very next hole, so a full round can play out up to nine of them. Net, gross or strokes-off-the-low-player, and the group chat calls each result as it lands. • A rebuilt cup setup — choose the games and points round by round, with a plan that shows what's still to fill in before you can start. Mixed formats in one cup are now the default, with the classic Triple Cup a one-tap preset. • Clearer cup leaderboards — see where every stroke falls before you play the hole, with singles strokes anchored on the pairing you're actually against. • Rabbit — handicap strokes now stay exactly where they were set at the start of the round; a leg that's already won is called out instead of looking live; and the leaderboard shows the full scorecard with each hole's winner highlighted. • Sixes — corrected the stroke dots on holes handed from one match to the next. • Bigger type, intact layouts — very large system font sizes no longer push screens out of shape. • Fixes — the keyboard can always be dismissed when adding or searching for players, so the button underneath is never out of reach.

### 2.5.1 — 2026-08-10

New in 2.5.1

• Triple Nassau — a brand-new game. Play three 1-on-1 Nassaus at once (you against each of the other three). One setup, per-pair handicaps, and a dedicated screen showing every match, its presses, and who owes whom.

• Sixes team draws — let the slot machine pick your partners. Draw the Segment 1 teams at setup, watch the Segment 2 pairing reveal itself at the turn, and draw the teams for an extra match too. Prefer to choose? Just drag.

• A cleaner Rounds list — every round is now a tidy card with the game, live progress, your score, and the money you won or lost. A new filter keeps rounds you played separate from ones you're just watching.

• Rabbit improvements — extra "rabbits" when a leg ends early, fairer handicap allocation, and clearer wording when a hole is halved.

• Stroke Play, your way — view the leaderboard as Gross, Net, or Strokes-off.

• Polish & fixes — Cup match cards tinted by the leading team, more reliable course adds with clearer errors, and assorted layout fixes.

### 2.4.0 — 2026-07-22

See where every stroke falls:

• Stroke dots, everywhere — every scorecard and score-entry screen now shows
  exactly which holes each player gets a handicap stroke on, across all your
  games: Vegas, Wolf, Rabbit, Sixes, Stableford, the Mini Singles Bracket and
  the one-round cup.
• The Stroke Play tab now lays out each player's full-round strokes hole by
  hole — all 18 — even before you tee off.
• Wolf: the tee shows who's getting a stroke before the Wolf picks a partner.
• Support for nine-hole play as well as shotgun starts.
• Set a home course once and it's ready every time you start a round.
• The leaderboard refreshes the moment you open it.
• Fixes: correct strokes when men and women play different tees, Strokes-Off-Low
  scoring in the Mini Singles Bracket, and the final match no longer starts
  before the semifinals are decided.

### 2.3.2 — 2026-07-14

See where every stroke falls:

• Stroke dots, everywhere — every scorecard and score-entry screen now shows exactly which holes each player gets a handicap stroke on, across all your games: Vegas, Wolf, Rabbit, Sixes, Stableford, the Mini Singles Bracket and the one-round cup.
• The Stroke Play tab now lays out each player's full-round strokes hole by hole — all 18 — even before you tee off.
• Wolf: the tee shows who's getting a stroke before the Wolf picks a partner.
• Set a home course once and it's ready every time you start a round.
• The leaderboard refreshes the moment you open it.
• Fixes: correct strokes when men and women play different tees, Strokes-Off-Low scoring in the Mini Singles Bracket, and the final match no longer starts before the semifinals are decided.
* Support for nine hole play as well as Shotgun starts

### 2.3.0 — 2026-07-07

See exactly who owes whom:
• New Settlement tab — nets every game in your round into one who-owes-whom summary, and shows the fewest payments needed to settle up.
• Choose how each game splits the pot — Pool, Pay the leader, or Pay everyone above you — now consistent across Skins, Spots and Points 5-3-1, with an optional cap on losses.
• Cleaner, unified game-setup screens.
• Simpler Nassau setup — presses and variants tucked under Advanced.
• Fixes and polish across Nassau, Stableford and the scorecard.
