### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-02-08, version 6.8.0*

It just spins and never loads the yardage book.

### 2/5 — Not working

*2020-02-05, version 6.8.0*

Spinning wheel of death constantly... fix please

### 1/5 — App is broken

*2020-01-19, version 6.8.0*

It Doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Useless

*2020-01-18, version 6.8.0*

Couldn’t find any of the courses I searched. The search functionality seems to be broken as I couldn’t even find the courses that were already in the app (i.e. Torrey is listed but searching for Torrey returns no results). Totally useless and not even worth 1 star.

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time

*2019-08-31, version 6.8.0*

This is a basic GPS app over a yardage book - that’s it.  The technology is 1992.  There are hundreds of better golf apps.  Deleted the app 3 mins after downloading.  Don’t waste your time.

### 2/5 — Frustrating

*2019-06-29, version 6.8.0*

If you can find the course your looking for its pretty good but the searching feature is frustrating to deal with.

### 2/5 — Great App!

*2019-06-25, version 6.8.0*

UPDATE: last couple of days this app seems to be broken. Says it cannot get an Internet connection even though there is a proper Internet connection. Please fix! (June 25, 2019)

Don’t understand all the negative reviews. This is a perfect reference app for when I’m watching the PGA tour on TV. I love the fact that you guys update it with the PGA schedule for the year. I agree some of the stuff can be tweaked that other users have suggested but overall this is a great app, thank you!

### 1/5 — Useless

*2019-05-30, version 6.8.0*

Doesn’t have my home course. Got locked on another course and could not quit

### 1/5 — Really bad

*2019-05-28, version 6.8.0*

Simply shows the overall distance of a hole.  No ability to interact.  No distance to doglegs or hazards.  Nothing to show various tee boxes.  Overall it is useless.

### 1/5 — Why even have this available???

*2019-04-14, version 6.8.0*

Makes BlueGolf look really bad... why even publish this as an app??

### 1/5 — Unable to sign in

*2025-05-07, version 6.9.3*

I can’t get past the sign in page!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-03-15, version 6.9.3*

Won’t let you see the course until you sign in and the sign in page doesn’t do anything after hitting enter with Google login or manual login attempts.

### 1/5 — Weak

*2025-03-04, version 6.9.3*

There’s no control features to select tee boxes and way to determine layup yardages on par 5’s like Golf GPS… also, the app shows a golf course (in my area) that has been closed for 20 years now. There’s a housing development there!!

### 1/5 — Didn’t work

*2024-07-01, version 6.9.3*

Downloaded and wouldn’t display an images

### 1/5 — Don’t bother

*2023-07-29, version 6.9.3*

Horrible app. Deleted it 5 minutes after I downloaded it. Plenty of others with way better info to choose from.

### 1/5 — Golf yardage

*2022-09-26, version 6.9.3*

Good for the hour it works then keeps locking up  so needs to be reinstalled

### 1/5 — App is not working the same

*2021-07-16, version 6.9.3*

Recently this app isn’t working the same and keeps taking me to my browser with a blue golf login. Once I do, it’s just not the same. Why did this change?

### 1/5 — P.O.S.

*2021-05-08, version 6.9.3*

Don’t bother. Very little functionality. Was pushed to the app by their website. But courses I’m interested in don’t pull up. Good idea, but horrible execution.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2021-03-07, version 6.9.3*

The app doesn’t let you log on, doesn’t show anything

### 1/5 — Can’t log in

*2020-08-18, version 6.9.3*

Very frustrating. Seems like this could be a very good app, however when I signed up for an account and got the verification email, I could not sign in using my email and password that I created. Now it says that I can’t login because there were too many failed attempts and my account is locked for 30 minutes. Extremely frustrating.

### 5/5 — Great Simple Tool

*2021-09-07, version 6.9.3*

This yardage book does it’s job very well, I use it every round. When I get to the 1st tee I open it up and immediately it brings the course I’m at to the top of its options list, I select the first hole and boom it’s got my distance to the green. It can glitch and not update your location on the 2nd and 3rd shots, but I’ve found that if you select the hole you’re on again it will update every time. Problem solved. I used to use a bushnell rangefinder but this is more effective for blind shots and I don’t have to worry about shaky hands or if i shot the wrong area with the laser. This app has no other features other than rangefinding as far as I know. And that’s why I like it. Please don’t scrap this app.

### 5/5 — Must have for playing unfamiliar courses

*2019-07-09, version 6.8.0*

Free and as effective or even better than yardage guns that cost hundreds of dollars. Use every time I play a course I’m not familiar with.

### 5/5 — Use every round I play

*2019-07-09, version 6.8.0*

I use it every time I golf. Luckily a lot of the courses I play have some POIs in it which helps. But playing some public courses with only 100, 150 and 200 markers, this makes a difference in getting the exact front back and middle yardage

### 5/5 — Great for pre-round prep!

*2019-05-21, version 6.8.0*

Large course database. Easy to search & find. A must use app for any golfer!

### 4/5 — Great App

*2020-02-07, version 6.8.0*

Great App if you can get what course you want. Totally free and easy to use. App seems to be not working as of 2/6/20. I don’t know what the problem is but I hope it’s fixed.

### 4/5 — Broke on iPhone 11

*2020-01-18, version 6.8.0*

It was a great app before I changed to iPhone 11.

### 4/5 — Need to contact dev’s

*2020-01-07, version 6.8.0*

Seems like it’s broken on iPhone 11. I can’t change courses without closing out of the app completely. That said, provides good info without ads so I’m willing to put up with that drawback.

### 3/5 — Different Tee support

*2022-03-04, version 6.9.3*

App is good and is helpful in understanding the overall layout of a course, however I wish that there were more tee boxes options than playing from the tips, since most average golfers play from one of the middle tees.

### 2/5 — Ehhh

*2025-01-27, version 6.9.3*

Courses I play are on there but why give a sign up page and a log in if the app never logs in.

### 2/5 — Really glitchy.

*2021-10-04, version 6.9.3*

Seems nobody has made any attempt to update the UI on this. It’s very glitchy and very limited. Too many apps out there that can do so much more, I guess, that nobody cares about this one
