## What is Waddle?

Track your game, share your progress. Waddle is free golf GPS for iPhone and Apple Watch, with no ads: live yardages on a satellite map you can tilt into 3D, shot tracking, six scoring formats and a record of every round, plus a way to share each round with the people who care.

Live distances, wherever you stand
See real-time yardages to the front, centre, and back of the green on a satellite hole map you can tilt into 3D, with club suggestions based on your own distances and the distances to bunkers and water where the course data includes them. Available on iPhone, on your lock screen with a Live Activity, and on your wrist with Apple Watch.

Score the way you actually play
Track score, putts, penalties, sand shots, and lost balls for up to four players in Stroke Play, Stableford, Singles Match Play, Four-Ball Match Play, Better Ball or Scramble, with live results as you go and optional skins in every format except Scramble. Shot tracking is free: mark each shot on the hole map, pick the club and review your shots after the round. Prefer just the numbers? Switch to GPS-only mode and skip the scorecard entirely.

Every round, remembered
Your full round history is saved on your iPhone with hole-by-hole scorecards, so trends in your scoring average, fairways hit, greens in regulation, short game, and putting show up over time — not just after one good day.

Walk it, then save it
Record a private walking route, asked about before anything is saved, and see your trail on the course map. Finished rounds save to Apple Health with their route, so Strava and other apps can import the workout.

Bring your friends along
Follow a friend's round live, including the state of their match, with Follow My Round. Schedule a round together, invite friends and see who has teed off. Post scorecards and photos to your feed, comment on each other's rounds, and compare scores on course leaderboards with friends or the wider community, with your visibility in your control.

Built for Apple Watch
Waddle keeps distances on your wrist and tracks the round as a workout in Health, so you can leave your phone in the bag.

Courses ready for your round
Search hole-by-hole course data, download your home course for offline use, and save favourites for next time.

Waddle is free to download and play, with no ads.
