Also, currently the 9 hole course at Broome Manor in Swindon does not work. I did email EG but a week later and still no response, all in all pretty rubbish. They have also changed how you enter the scorer. You used to be able to just type their name, first last, now you need their EG number, although I did work out you can type last, first name and that works. Why they can’t just list your friends names when you choose to look in friends as the scorer. All in all an ok app. ### 2/5 — Make digital match card *2026-06-22* On a paper card, one player marks the scores and both players sign - one card, two signatures, done. The app should mirror that. If I open the app and have two membership numbers logged as playing the same course, that one session should let both players attest each other’s scores from the one phone. Instead, each player has to create and submit a separate electronic scorecard from scratch - duplicating the entire setup before anyone can attest. That makes the digital process slower and clumsier than the paper version it replaced. Same WHS requirement - less friction, digital should be slicker than paper not worse. ### 2/5 — Revamped version *2026-06-10* This new “improved” version has a couple of nice new features but is badly let down by some basic UI issues and breakages in functionality that it should never have been released with. Good - Ability to select the handicap allowance - 95%, 90% etc. on the calculator page - Groups. Can add friends(or golfers now) to a group and then see the course or adjusted handicaps for an entire group on the calculator page. Great for society days as you can see everyone’s playing handicap for the day without going to every single person’s page. Bad - Home page. Banner is way too big, around 40% of the screen area on an IPad. Then "golfers" scores are shown before my recent ones. As others have said, the main point of this app is to see my scores. If I want to see everybody else's scores, I would go to a dedicated page like before. - Scores page. Font is too small and can see that they have distinguished between social and competition rounds using the outline of each score and then the light green flag to show counting ones. This might work on a PC screen, but does not work at all on a tablet or phone. There are so many better ways to present this, just ask an actual UX person. - Player search/peer review. Can no longer search for a club then search for the player in that club. It must be broken because the options on this page are just filters. Unless someone is a friend or in your club, you can't check their handicap, which is essential when playing in something like the TravisMathew matchplay comp. - Same problem as above but with the attestation. They have to be in your club or a "friend". - My home club isn't even set as my Home club in the app, it's an Away club. Can't see how to change this in the app or the website. It would be more useful to have a favourite clubs that you can manage yourself and get quick handicap calculations for them. The app wasn't great before but it did a job and had sensible visuals. This is a bad regression. ### 3/5 — Good in principle, but needs work *2026-05-19* It’s fab to be able to have an official handicap without having to cough up subs for a club. However, I wish this app was slightly friendlier to use. If we’re paying £40-£50 a year, PLEASE remove ads from the app, I get that there are brand partners but there must be a way of showcasing this without ugly banner ads visible on every page in the app. Also, unskippable splash content on each opening of the app is absolutely mind numbing. I’ve been shown “Caddy Comps” so many times that I’m implicitly opposed to it. ### 3/5 — Constantly Crashes *2026-04-18, version 2.0.8* Decent app generally but continually crashes. Please sort it out. ### 2/5 — Release an update *2026-03-22, version 2.0.8* App is completely broken - crashes all the time, logs me out automatically, today I can’t even log in. It’s really poor, sort it out. ### 1/5 — Rubbish app *2026-03-22, version 2.0.8* This app is awful, crashes all the time, takes years to open, unbelievably slow. EG need to pull their finger out and get someone to upgrade it so it is more enjoyable to use. ### 1/5 — So horrendously slow *2026-03-21, version 2.0.8* What has happened to the app? So horrendously slow. Shows logged off, then logs you in randomly, everything takes 5+ minutes to load and so many error messages. Apparently not the only one experiencing this... Awful... ### 1/5 — Please sort this app out *2026-03-21, version 2.0.8* Please sort this out my England, we just want to play golf, then have a pint, not all trying to reboot the app as it never loads when trying to confirm scores, even with wifi you never work. ### 2/5 — Needs Improvement *2026-03-21, version 2.0.8* Considering this is the only way to get a WHS in England without being a member of a club, the app needs some major improvement. It is very slow, crashes multiple times and deletes scores. Not so user friendly for inputting scores as you go around a golf course. Please make it better! ### 1/5 — Didn’t work *2026-03-21, version 2.0.8* Never been able to load it and log in. Rubbish ### 1/5 — What's Happened to this App *2026-03-21, version 2.0.8* This last month has been awful, March 2026, all our club members are experiencing a very poor service from this app. We are continuously having trouble entering our scores and submitting to my EG. What has happened? it used to be so good and now it's terrible. ### 1/5 — So many issues it’s unreal *2026-03-21* Absolutely horrendous app. I am due to enter some competitions so am required to have an official handicap. The app is incredibly slow. Sometimes I do not get past the splash screen. Then, I get constant network errors, telling me I cannot connect to the servers, and cannot progress to the scorecard. On the rare occasion that there doesn’t seem to be a network error, and I can record my scores, the app just crashes, and then corrupts my scorecard, so I have to delete the card I’m using in realtime, and enter it all again. I genuinely think that this is the worst app I have ever used, and there should be an alternative method for this. ### 1/5 — Shameful. *2026-03-21, version 2.0.8* To think this is an official England Golf app, and it’s paid, it is horrifically bad. Constant crashing, glitches, impossible to load up pre, during and post round. To think you have apps like ‘SwingU’ that is completely free, and 1 million times better than this. ### 1/5 — App issues *2026-03-21, version 2.0.8* This is supposed to be The official handicap app for everyone and should run seamlessly but very disappointed £46 to join with an app which won’t open when trying to log in then when it eventually opens navigating to different pages won’t open or take an enternity to open won’t be renewing membership if things don’t improve ### 1/5 — Worst app I use *2026-03-21, version 2.0.8* Complete rubbish. Slow, unintuitive user experience, constantly crashes. Useless. ### 1/5 — Naff *2026-03-21, version 2.0.8* Really not acceptable for a paid app. This is also one representing a nation of golfers, the app is completely useless at the moment. ### 1/5 — Dreadful *2026-03-21, version 2.0.8* The app is dreadful. Why we have to be forced to use such garbage is beyond me. You all need sacking due to your incompetence to have an app that actually works ### 1/5 — Terrible update *2026-03-21, version 2.0.8* Recently this app has become completely unusable. Crashes, bugs, forgets scores, and excruciatingly slow. Used to at least be functional, no idea what’s happened. Needs fixing ASAP. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Very expensive and barely works *2026-06-28* Really bad app. Hugely effective at signing up members and collecting payment, but not much else. I have never been able to get this app to find my playing partner and get them to attest my score. I ended up uninstalling and reinstalling the app to see if there was some issue that was stopping it from finding anything it its database. Upon reinstalling and logging back in, I found I could only proceed if I pay them £47. I’m new to golf and I’ve now begun to realise how few people playing golf actually bother to maintain a handicap. If I join a club in the future then maybe I’ll think about it, but this has been a waste of my time and money. ### 1/5 — Absolutely awful *2026-05-31* This is the first and only App Store review I’ve ever written. That’s how spectacularly bad this app has become since the so-called “upgrade”. At first, I was delighted to see that rounds played outside England and Scotland could finally be entered. Unfortunately, that moment of optimism lasted about as long as a three-foot putt. Rounds now seem to exist in a state of quantum uncertainty. They may or may not appear. They may or may not be attested. Your playing partner may or may not receive the attestation request. Nobody knows. Schrödinger himself would be impressed. Even better, some rounds simply disappear into the ether without explanation. The app routinely fails at the most basic function it exists to perform: recording and processing golf scores. The whole thing feels less like a finished product and more like a beta test that was accidentally released to the public. If England Golf built this in-house, the development team should be nowhere near another software project. If it was outsourced, England Golf should demand a refund, recover every penny possible, and find a partner capable of delivering an app that can manage the revolutionary task of saving a golf score. An upgrade is supposed to make things better. This one has turned a functional app into a masterclass in how not to release software. ### 1/5 — Terrible redesign *2026-05-27* They have redesigned the app to make it more about social features rather than the actual primary use of the app, placing “friends” above your recent scores! Like anyone is actually using that over checking their scores?!? Why do I now have to click through to see my graph and full latest scores? That is literally the primary reason we use the app - to track our handicap trend. Now we are greeted with a useless, narcissistic “MY EG” filling up half the home page. I already know it’s MY EG because I selected the app! I don’t need it to tell me in the app! Also, it’s become less clear which scores are counting and not, as they’ve replaced a big green circle with a piddly little flag and poorly contrasting colours… FIRE THESE UI FOOLS YOU HIRED TO MAKE THE APP LESS FRIENDLY ASAP ### 1/5 — Latest update is dreadful *2026-05-19* I’ve used the MyEG app for a number of years now with no issues whatsoever. Today (19th May 26) I received an email announcing an updated app. I downloaded it and it’s dreadful. There are error messages on various screens, the speed is slow on WiFi so what it’ll be like on the course is concerning. There also seems to be a shift in focus from you to friends in the app so they appear at the top of the home page. I then have to search to find my own scores/stats. I want the focus to be on my scores with the option of finding friends, not the other way around. The app is supposed to facilitate entering all scores when you play. As it stands I won’t even bother trying to login. This is just a distraction from golf not a way to record scores and stats as it used to be. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it! ### 1/5 — Absolutely awful *2026-05-19* I am writing this after the latest May 2026 update which claims to fix a lot of the problems yet this app remains terrible. Slow to load, slow to create scorecards if that works at all. Presumably the influx of people trying the new app to see if it’s no longer terrible has overwhelmed the servers. Entirely predictable, entirely avoidable. Even when it settles down and things start working that won’t fix the awful UI, e.g. graph of hcp index where the data points in no way match my actual hcp index, black text on black backgrounds. And the worst part, this app is essentially mandatory to maintain a handicap AND I have paid for it through my annual subscription and yet I am being served adverts! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2026-04-12, version 2.0.8* Missing courses. Crashes constantly. Doesn’t work ### 1/5 — Absolute joke *2026-03-31, version 2.0.8* For an official hcp app, it’s an absolute shambles. The number of times it crashes, wipes scores resets is an absolute joke. In a world with such high levels of functionality from competing apps how is this acceptable to be the “official one” ### 1/5 — Needs work *2026-03-30, version 2.0.8* This app is such a poor effort from England golf. They need to do better! The fact you can’t change the tee box of your playing partner is mind blowing. More often than not the tee box for my playing partners is incorrect and you’re helpless to change it. Totally messing up their scorecards because their playing handicap is shown wrong. ### 1/5 — App not working *2026-03-22, version 2.0.8* Slow to connect/ no help or support/ not a great platform as of today 22nd March 2026 it’s just broken. This is on iPhone 16, tried all the usual rubbish and even re started phone. It went down mid round on the course. Glitchy and poor ### 1/5 — Down again *2026-03-22, version 2.0.8* Frequently laggy when opening and more than normal it hangs on the splash screen. Even if it does eventually open there’s no handicap data on any of the pages. Pretty useless, but all we have to rely on. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Good app *2025-01-28, version 2.0.0* Good to see handicap ### 5/5 — Don’t get the negativity *2024-07-29* It does what you want it to do! I wasn’t expecting gps or anything it’s pretty much what it needs to be an electronic scorecard for your handicap! It’s made everything easy can’t help but think people want too much from the app, if you want GPS and scoring go use golf shot and put in your paper cards but time to move with the times in golf I feel and MYEG is doing just that. Great start to modernisation of the scoring systems ### 5/5 — Friends Sort Order *2024-07-02, version 1.0.28* You seem to have just changed Friends sort order (even tho the app store says last update 2 months ago??) from Last Played to Alphabetical Surname?? Why not make it selectable on either Last Played or Name? Thanks ### 5/5 — Whoopie! Crashing fixed *2024-04-09, version 1.0.28* V1.0.28 now fixed the crashing when opening round details on earlier IOS Thanks for listening to feedback. ### 5/5 — Oh That was a mistake👍 *2024-03-24, version 1.0.25* 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Letting everyone to see everyone’s scores 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍 ### 5/5 — Best way to know your handicap *2023-06-14, version 1.0.16* This by far the best way to keep track on how your handicap changes. Plus you can keep a eye on your friends score as well and see where they are improving through there scores. Don’t know why everyone hates it so much but I LOVE IT! ### 5/5 — Excellent App *2022-01-24, version 1.0.11* Been using for sometime and its very simple to use. Like the Friends option but would also like to see an option for creating Groups within Friends to keep certain Friends seperate (eg. keep regular swindle friends seperated from other friends). ### 5/5 — Absolute game changer! *2021-10-22, version 1.0.10* Can’t believe the negative reviews on here. It’s fantastic. Have linked to all my golfing buds…some of whom aren’t members anywhere and we all have a proper handicap, so no sharking! Great to follow mates progress regardless of where they play in the country. Most importantly it’s reduced the admin after a round and quickly updates the handicap. Spot on.. well done to the developers! ### 5/5 — A real step forward in golfing social networking *2021-05-08, version 1.0.6* Me and my friends love this app. Firstly the interface is so straight forward, then seeing your results immediately after your round. And finally seeing your friends results and actual scores is great for a bit of banter! ### 5/5 — Attention all idiots *2021-04-25, version 1.0.4* To all the people saying how welsh and Scottish courses are not included and how they should be, the app is for ‘England golf’, meaning only English courses will show up. Overall, app does what it is designed to do, shows you your 20 most recent rounds, which ones count towards you handicap index and which ones will drop out first. Simple and easy to use. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
