## What is SkyCaddie Mobile Golf GPS?

Golfers who prefer to use their smartphone as their GPS device of choice or supplement the course information not provided by their GPS watch, or just use it when their trusted SkyCaddie is not available, can benefit from the same high-precision, best-in-class course maps that made SkyCaddie the rangefinder trusted by more serious golfers than all other rangefinders combined.

SkyCaddie Mobile is now compatible with GameTrax 360* and SwingTrax 360.
* Requires upgraded membership to SkyGolf 360 Pro X membership – access to SwingTrax 360 is included in SkyGolf 360 Birdie. Both require purchase of SkyGolf SuperTags. 

Basic Features
• Access to SkyCaddie’s worldwide course map library: Find course ratings, scorecards and other helpful course information such as prices, dress code and more!
• Hole by Hole Scoring: Easily record your round as you play.
• Basic Stat Tracking: Track Score, Fairways Hit, Greens in Regulation and Putts to analyze performance after a round.
• Integrated Camera: Capture highlights and special moments during or after play to relive in the 19th Hole, share with friends or the entire SkyGolf 360 community.
• Integrated Notes: Document a great shot, save special memories, or record a helpful strategy to remember or share with the SkyGolf 360 community.

Premium Features (Requires in-app upgrade after 30 day free trial)  

• Interactive HoleVue in Vivid HD: Provides an eagle’s view of the entire hole and the distances needed to any point from tee to green to avoid hazards and play smart golf.
• Integrated Targets: Up to 40 geo-referenced targets per hole are integrated within HoleVue. Simply pinch and zoom HoleVue to seamlessly reveal the critical distances to all hazards, carries and layups — not just a few calculated layup yardages provided in other apps.
• Detailed Green Information: View the exact shape of the green and get distances to the Front, Center and Back from anywhere on the course regardless of the angle of approach.
• Manual Shot Tracking: Use this feature to track every shot on the course and the app automatically captures your score and stats, along with your club performance including distance and accuracy or upgrade and purchase GameTrax 360 with SuperTags, the ultimate performance tracker with real time shot tracking and 3D swing capture.  
• Auto-Hole Advance: Stay focused on playing golf and eliminate the distraction of manual hole changes. Just play and let the app automatically advance to the next hole so the distances needed for the next shot are always ready.
• SkyGolf 360 Birdie Membership: SkyGolf 360 is one of golf’s fastest growing online communities. As a Premium member, you have access to:
• Cloud Storage: View your scores and stats anywhere in the world from the palm of your hand with the SkyGolf 360 companion mobile app.
• Advanced Scoring and Stats: Track your game like a Pro with Advanced Stats including Driving Distance, Sand Saves Percentage, 3-Putt Avoidance, plus more!
• Advanced Reports and Charts: Use the in-depth tools to identify strengths and weaknesses in your game.
• Live Scoring: Share your round with friends and family in real time via SkyGolf 360.

Once you sign-up for SkyCaddie Mobile Premium after your 30 day trial period, your SkyCaddie Mobile Premium subscription is renewed automatically, unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage your subscriptions through your iTunes account.
