### 2/5 — Pga tour AR

*2022-06-30, version 4.2.32*

There is a live pga tour on but it says there on schedule no pga tour is on it even says on The other PGA tour app it says there is a pga tour on live also it does not let you look at past pga tours

### 2/5 — What happened to this app

*2020-01-25, version 2.1.0*

Am I late to this, seems like a dope app

### 2/5 — Some kinks

*2019-04-06, version 2.0*

A good idea, but rather poor implementation.  Too difficult to zoom in to where you want to be. Should be able to swipe to where you wish to look instead of having to move the camera in and out.

### 2/5 — Meh

*2019-01-27, version 1.2*

Hard to control the phone in one hand and make selections on screen with the other. Also the end benefit of just seeing where a player’s shots have landed doesn’t give me much value or enjoyment. AR is cool, but perhaps not for following along with golf. I either want to see the action live or just give me the stats.

### 2/5 — Not Compatible

*2018-07-01, version 1.2*

I have an iPod Touch 6th generation which in the description of the app is compatible but when I downloaded the app it said my device wasn’t compatible. I have iOS 11.4 so I don’t know what the problem is. I want to use the app but I can’t. Anyone know what’s wrong?

### 1/5 — Tough to begin

*2018-07-01, version 1.2*

Not very intuitive. Needs more, clearer instruction.

### 1/5 — Could not detect surface

*2018-07-01, version 1.2*

Tried several times on different surfaces.  Still needs a lot of work to be able to get past detection part.

### 1/5 — Waste of Time

*2018-07-01, version 1.2*

I guess the finding surface is a deal killer.  Too bad, the developers aren’t looking at find a solution to the numerous comments with not being able to beyond this point.

### 1/5 — Won’t work on iPad

*2018-07-01, version 1.2*

Requirements say that the application will work on my device but when I install and open the app get the message “Your device won’t work with AR Kit”.

### 1/5 — Battery Hog - Phone Runs Hot

*2018-06-30, version 1.2*

The concept is interesting; however, it consumed 40% of my battery in 15 minutes and I could barely hold the phone because it got so hot. It needs work before I’ll risk it again.

### 1/5 — Don’t get to concept

*2018-06-30, version 1.2*

I thought I would at least get to actually interact with it.

### 2/5 — Boring

*2018-06-30, version 1.2*

What’s the point of this?

### 1/5 — Idk why this exists

*2018-06-30, version 1.2*

Bad

### 1/5 — Big fail

*2018-06-30, version 1.2*

Couldn’t even get the game to detect a flat surface. Boooo.

### 1/5 — Does Not Work

*2018-06-30, version 1.2*

I tried using on an iPhone 8+ and it could not detect surface. The app did not work on my iPad Pro either.

### 1/5 — Waste of time and mostly worthless.

*2018-06-30, version 1.2*

Could only get this to work on a non-flat surface. Then it only shows me stats of other golfers for one hole. What's the point? If I wanted stats, I could look them up online rather than doing a song and dance with this app for a few random stats.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2023-03-04, version 4.4.15*

Not really sure of the point of this app. It does nothing but ask me to rotate the phone and then make sure that I’m at the tournament. Do you need to be at the tournament to use it?  If so, why would anyone want to watch an app if they are at the tournament?

### 1/5 — Acquired, Calibrating, repeat

*2021-09-03, version 3.1*

Does this app even work?  How long to get acquired and calibrating when following the instructions?  After 5 minutes, I gave up.

### 1/5 — Can’t figure it out

*2019-12-23, version 2.1.0*

Make it simple and easy to enjoy.

### 1/5 — Data vs WiFi

*2019-07-17, version 2.1.0*

The first message I received after reading reviews and the downloading APP was “...APP will use a “large” amount of data”...NO THANK YOU.

### 1/5 — Lane

*2019-02-03, version 2.0*

Doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Uhhh?

*2018-11-12, version 1.2*

I tried to play it once. It loads the first hole, has you pick 4 players and then??? Nothing happens. This is on XS Max.

### 1/5 — Lol.  It’s just stats.

*2018-07-21, version 1.2*

I thought it was a game. This is such a weird app. Delete.

### 1/5 — So not a game

*2018-07-03, version 1.2*

So this is not a game just simply you watch shots be made. I don’t get it....

### 1/5 — Quits and hard to control

*2018-07-01, version 1.2*

Whenever I move the screen quits and it closes the app and I can’t control the golfers half of the time there aren’t any golfers to choose from really bad app don’t recommend it

### 4/5 — Lots of cellular data warning

*2019-08-12, version 2.1.0*

What if I am on WiFi only? Does this warning still apply?

### 4/5 — Great concept

*2018-03-14, version 1.0*

Really great concept idea. I wish they had more holes for the courses where current tournaments are happening so I could look at them as I follow my favorite golfers.

### 3/5 — Will be great with more holes someday

*2018-04-06, version 1.0*

Works good, I swore they said we would have all the master’s holes on here and see none?

### 3/5 — Needs more

*2018-03-20, version 1.0*

Hope they add all courses/holes on the schedule

### 3/5 — Cool idea but can’t get it to detect a surface

*2018-03-13, version 1.0*

Not sure if I’m doing something wrong though
