Read greens like a tour caddie. ProSide uses your iPhone Pro's LiDAR scanner to map any green, calculate the break, and show you exactly where to aim. Stop guessing. Start making putts. HOW IT WORKS Scan the green. Point your iPhone Pro at the green around your ball and the hole. LiDAR captures slope and elevation in seconds. See the break. ProSide turns the scan into a smooth elevation model and works out how the ball will roll. You get the predicted path, the slope direction, and a clear aim point. Pick your view. Read the green in live AR right where you're standing, or switch to a 2D contour map or a full 3D surface model. Same accurate read, three ways to look at it. Practice and improve. Make your own read first, then compare it to what ProSide calculated. Over time you'll see whether you struggle with downhill putts, sidehill putts, or longer distances — and you can practice exactly where you need to. WHY PROSIDE Built around LiDAR. ProSide was designed from day one for the LiDAR scanner in iPhone Pro and Pro Max. The result is precise, repeatable reads — scan the same putt twice and you get the same answer. No extra hardware. No ball markers, no sensors, nothing to charge or lose. Just your phone. A practice tool, not a tournament aid. ProSide is built for the practice green and training sessions. Always check the rules for your course, league, or tournament before using any electronic aid during a competitive round. REFERRAL PROGRAM Share your unique code from the in-app partner dashboard.

Aftershot Golf
Read full descriptionHide full description
Aftershot turns a 30-second voice memo into the same kind of stats and coaching tour pros use — reading your swing and your head, without the spreadsheets, the sidetracking, or the manual entry. Your playing partner just got a lot smarter. Tracking your stats shouldn't ruin the round. You came out to play golf, not to play data entry. Most apps make you punch in every shot, every club, every distance — round becomes a chore, you stop using it by hole eight, and the data you do collect is half-wrong anyway. The AFTERSHOT way: Forget tap targets and dropdowns. Speak naturally — Aftershot understands golf. It knows the difference between a knockdown 8-iron and a punch-out, between a flop and a chip, between “left rough” and “left of left rough.” No fantasy advice. If you're a 14, Aftershot won't tell you to dial in your 200-yard approach proximity. It looks at the realistic gains for your game and tells you which two things, worked on for an hour this week, will actually drop your scores. Talk through a hole and Aftershot hears more than clubs and numbers — it picks up when you second-guessed a club, when your legs went, when you got tight over the ball. That context is what a real coach works from, and most apps throw it away. Every round ends with AFTERSHOT READS — the two or three things that actually mattered. Go deeper with Your Game Plan: a straight diagnosis, one focus, and a real practice session with drills that have a pass/fail number. Then ask your Coach anything, and get answers pulled from your own rounds. **PRACTICE THAT TRANSFERS** Record range and short-game sessions by voice. Run measured drills, log a score, and get a retest date. Aftershot tracks whether your practice is actually showing up on the course. **ONE FOCUS AT A TIME** Your Game Plan ranks your biggest scoring opportunities in plain language and lets you choose the one to work on. Your tee cards, round recap and Coach all line up behind it. **YOUR OWN SWING CUES, WHEN YOU NEED THEM** Standing on a par 3? Aftershot surfaces what you told yourself the last time it went well. Star the cues that work. **A COACH THAT KNOWS YOUR GAME** Ask anything. The Coach reads your rounds, your recent patterns and your club data, and can hand you drills to save to My Drills. **SEE THE TREND** Trend lines for driving, approach, short game, putting and more, with markers for every practice session.
