### 1/5 — waste of time

*2026-03-15, version 4.4.9*

i am using direct connect between my ipad and skytrak plus. ipad, iphone just cannot detect the skytrak wifi signal 95% of the time. this results in me cancelling my sessions more than often, this is very frustrating. never getting this device again.

### 3/5 — Not bad

*2026-03-07, version 4.4.9*

Had SKYTRAK for a few years now and overall it’s ok, unfortunately the course play is frustrating, doesn’t pick up short game shots from bunkers etc, anything with open club face or slow shots won’t register so it makes it impossible to finish playing a hole. Very inconsistent on picking up driver as well. Needs to be sorted otherwise it’s pointless playing. The range is ok and they have some great ranges to use

### 4/5 — Great

*2025-10-31, version 4.4.9*

I have an older iPad which doesn’t have the RAM for the full SKYTRAK app which means I don’t bother with course play. But this app works amazingly well for me as a slimed down version. I use it with my SKYTRAK plus.

I have the essentials package which is good value and this app has a basic driving range with moveable greens/fairways. It has great wedge matrix and practice features, bag mapping, target games etc

Most importantly it has all of the club swing and path data etc so it’s amazing for practicing. 

It’s mega quick to startup up and connect to iPad, which is ideal for me in practice net on lunch breaks.


I love it and can see the results in my game👌🏌️‍♂️

### 1/5 — Awful app

*2025-06-19, version 4.4.9*

App never stays connected in network mode or direct. Absolutely unusable and the company should be ashamed to have this out there.

### 1/5 — Freezes after about 5 shots

*2025-04-29, version 4.4.9*

If you like glitchy software then this is the app for you! It’s decent eleven it works but I often find it will work for a short period until it freezes and then I must restart the app and my SkyTrak. Disappointing.

### 1/5 — Insufficient RAM

*2025-04-08, version 4.4.9*

It’s amazing, I have a iPhone 14 Plus. My memory is 3071MB. Skytrak practice range requires 3072MB. 1MB short! I can’t believe the developers of this app have not checked with modern device capabilities. And let’s be clear. My user need is to know the numbers. I’d rather be able to use the app than have fancy sky scapes behind the driving range.

### 2/5 — Glitchy; slow

*2025-02-17, version 4.4.9*

I have the original SkyTrak, and was happy with it.  Then Golftek took over, and now only the “Lite” version of the software is available without premium subscription or new hardware. The Lite version is much slower responding to shots (often 10 seconds), or freezes/doesn’t display shots despite the hardware unit indicating it is ready after the previous shot. Requires re-start of software.  No way I’d upgrade after this experience.

### 1/5 — Network mode buggy

*2025-01-05, version 4.4.9*

Hassle

### 1/5 — It doesn’t work.

*2024-11-03, version 4.4.9*

It shows 325yards but it doesn’t work. Why is this happening?

### 1/5 — No longer works on iPad 5th gen

*2024-10-20, version 4.4.9*

Won’t hold a connection with the device and constantly crashes when you try to exit a menu item. Please fix this as these devices are not cheap to replace.
