Eighteen holes become six colors. ROUNDIE keeps the shape of your round instead of just the number. Eagle, birdie, par, bogey, double bogey, triple or worse — every hole becomes a color, so a whole round reads at a glance. A row of numbers only ever tells you "85." A color grid tells you the day you fell apart on the front nine and fought back on the back, or the day you strung three pars together coming home. ■ Every round becomes an edition Record a round, and the next morning an edition made only for that day arrives. Your photo on the cover, with a headline that names what the day actually was. The colors of 18 holes, the course, the people you walked with — all of it, in print. - One edition is published automatically the morning after you record - Cover / photo / the colors of 18 holes / the story of that day - Published editions stack up in your album, ready to be read again ■ Keep the round - A six-color grid driven by your score relative to par - Fast par-relative keypad for strokes and putts - Works for 9-hole rounds as well as 18 - Pick a course and the pars are filled in automatically - Attach photos and notes to the round ■ Share it - Rounds from the golfers you follow appear in your feed - React and comment without any pressure - Join communities of players chasing the same goal - Export a shareable image for your social feeds ■ Run the tournament - Invite players, enter scores on the day, publish results — all in the app - New Peoria (double Peoria) handicaps and net scores calculated for you - Hosts can enter scores on a player's behalf - Standings are calculated automatically and shared on the spot ■ Watch yourself change - A ten-tier rank derived from your all-time scoring average - Over 100 achievements that turn progress into something you can see - Stats and round history to look back on ■ ROUNDIE Pro (optional in-app purchase) Recording rounds, sharing, communities and tournaments of up to four players are free, forever. Pro unlocks exactly two things: - Tournaments with five or more players (up to 100) - The full world ranking, not just the top of the table - ROUNDIE Pro Monthly - ROUNDIE Pro Yearly - Tournament Pack (one-time) Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
