Know your green before you putt. Putt Break uses the LiDAR sensor on iPhone Pro to measure the slope of the putting green directly under your feet — in real time, with no setup required. What it does Stand over your ball. The app reads the slope percentage, which way it breaks, and whether you're putting uphill or downhill. Switch to Distance mode to measure the exact length of your putt from where you stand to the hole. Built for learning Putt Break is a measurement tool, not an aiming system. It tells you what the green is doing. You decide how to play it. That honesty is the point.
