Disappointing
The positive is, it has every course. It even has Montclair Golf Course near me, which is a dive bar with nine 50 yard holes attached. At its best it really feels like the courses, with appropriate slopes even.
The negatives are basically everything else. The courses look and play like giants grass fields with fairways scattered about (as opposed to OB areas). Very generic and not accurate. The physics are wonky, with the ball bouncing often like mad, more like it’s being shot out of a cannon. The ball tracking tends to wildly exaggerate spin on my R10. Balls curve like 90 degrees, it’s wild. Under 100 yards feels like luck of the draw.

Garmin app
Works great love the new updated graphics does sometimes mess up on the driver but irons wedges and sometimes woods are very accurate
Jcdky
Other than loosing connection and freezing up it was ok
Amazing golf sim app
Home tee hero is by far the best home sim app I have used. Love the regular courses and the enhanced. So glad they added compatibility for the R10 also.
Big upgrade from previous for Garmin devices.
I had bought awesome golf previously because this app just was not good enough, with the new updates for the R10, it has completely changed everything about how I play golf on my sim. Courses are incredibly detailed and it’s honestly my fav software to play on out of all of the other big names out there. Super happy that Garmin extended this update to us R10 peeps! Can’t recommend it enough!

R10 Rules
HTH Gr8 Fun
Great app
Need to get rid of the +3 and make options for putting. Give the distance to the hole , so I can put on my putting green. Otherwise it is a fun app
App keeps freezing
The app keeps freezing and i have to manually quit and go back into the app every swing
Constantly Freezing
Cant enjoy a seamless experience because the app freezes every single hole - was totally fine before they separated it from the Garmin Golf App.
Excellent!
The new app is an amazing upgrade over the last time i had a membership 3 years ago. Good work Garmin!! now, if you could make the 2 gimmie rings configurable, you’d get 6 stars 😁
So FUN
You may have thought the Garmin R10 is dead. Home Tee Hero adds to the experience
Can’t make it through two holes without the app bugging out or freezing
Keep trying to play different course both local to me and well known courses across the country like Augusta and pebble beach and no matter what I’ll make it usually to the 3-4 shot of the round and it just bugs out and I have to restart it. Might as well just cancel the 30 day trial and start paying for awesome golf if I can’t even go 5 shots on a range or 3-4 shots into a round before the whole app bugs out and freezes

Great app
This has helped my golf game immensely… that being said yall should make the app for the Apple TV would work great with it!
Not for R10
This app is awful on R10. It captures the first shot of the hole and ignores the next 10. If I switch back over to Garmin Golf, it works (mostly) fine. This is outdoors using real balls. No way this is worth $99 / year.
Glitch and Freeze
Latest update is so glitchy it’s unusable
A lot of freezing issues
Picked up a r10 yesterday and was very excited to try it out. I’m still getting used to it. I love the potential of the Home Tee app, even for previewing rounds at local courses. But the app freezes… a lot. While using the r10 it freezes. While just clicking through a course, it freezes. Once that’s resolved, this will be one stellar app for the launch monitor. Meanwhile the range on the standard Garmin Golf app works flawlessly, so far. One suggestion, I’d love to be able to review the simulated round after on the app using the same Shot Maps as the Golf app to get an idea of how the sim round might prepare me for the real thing if I play a course ahead of time as a preview. Shot Maps could be a good indicator to review what good or bad misses might produce on the course. Also, would LOVE to sync my CT10 sensors with the app so it knows what club I’m playing. Seems that would be a benefit to the hardware/software developers to know the club vs. attack angle, dynamic loft, launch angle, etc. in relation to the club selections.

Latest updates broke the app
This app used to work great. Now it is insanely buggy and pretty much unusable. Video stops after your first shot although the game continues. Have to restart it each hole. Then get a black screen. Doesn’t work anymore.
Please revert to your earlier versions. Can’t believe I pay for this right now. Unacceptable product on Garmin’s end.

Does not work
Continuously locks up
New iOS update broke it?
I am not sure what happened but I can’t play hometown hero anymore. It freezes every time I load and hit a shot. So frustrating. I want my subscription money back!
Won’t work on iPad
Previous app worked fine. Now with this update I can no longer play home tee hero. I paid for the year and now can’t use. My iPad OS is up to date but only goes to 16, this app requires you to have a newer iPad that has os 18.
