I have the $9.42 yearly subscription but I'm not pleased. My gear s2 watch only "buffers" at my home course and only 2 of the 18 holes are accurate yardage wise. My course is Jackson National in Jackson Tn 38301. I'd appreciate your attention to this these matters please. E. Staten
Loved this app on my Galaxy S6 Edge, even though it had problems. Now have the brand new S8. App will not work at all. Have sent messages to phi golf, occasionally they reply stating the obvious, like, is Bluetooth on!! I've bought this app 3 times so far this year! Stupid me! I don't think it's compatible with the S8.
I have been testing this and one of the other apps. I like the look and feel of Golf Navi a lot more than the other and the fact it can still give you distances even if your away from your phone is amazing. The other app stops working and requires me to reconnect very annoying. The only issue I have and its a biggy. the distances are OUT by 10 meters or more. I have checked this to the distance makers or the course as well as to the other app. Dam I was just about to upgrade to pro.
I used this for the first time yesterday on Black Gold in Orange county. It worked great for the 1st nine holes. The cart had an in-cart GPS that gave distances to the pin, this was pretty accurate. But once I got to the 10th hole, I could not make it go to the back nine. It kept giving me a ,message, "Haven't start the back nine yet" After messing with it a few holes, I simply restarted my watch to turn it off. The concept is great, but during a round of golf, I want to play golf not mess with a GPS device. Next round will be with my niece who is just learning to play, so a slower pace of play. I will have time to mess with it more. If it becomes too much of a hassle, I will dump it and go back to golfshot or Shot by Shot. Both of these know where I am and what hole I am on with any hassle. I gave it three stars because the distance was pretty good, The front nine was great. After the next round I will update this review. I have recently reinstalled the new version on my s2. Works great now. Keep up the good work!
Overall I'd give the app maybe 3 Stars. It works sometimes and sometimes it seems to not know what it's supposed to do. I play in a men's league and usually we have a shot-gun start. So it's not always on hole 1 where we begin. App can't seem to figure that out. It thinks when I've gone through the 18th. hole I'm done. Not always the case. As another reviewer mentioned, seems that the developer isn't a golfer - can't fathom some of the non-linear situations. I keep it on my Gear S3 only because there is no good alternative. Sure wish Samsung would line up useful apps for their products.
Tries to load map and data endlessly when i click start round on my lg g3
App will not work on either Gear S or phone. Won't find tee. Looks for map and data endlessly. I paid $30 for gear s app and wouldn't work last 3 rounds.
It couldn't tell what hole in was on, totally ruined my game, some of the free apps seem to be more reliable, I hope they sort this out soon
At first use, app started round on a very old course layout. Good thing I had my Golf GPS device on standby.
Tried several times without success. Good luck.
I use this app with my gear 2 watch and not my phone. I gave it 4 stars because it eats battery life.
Update seems to have made the application easier to use - however, mine will not change from the front nine to the back automatically and i cannot for the life of me figure out how to make it change from OUT to IN on the nines.... Anybody know how to ????
Used this app yesterday for the gear 2 and it told me Bluetooth disconnected 6 times during one round. Only got about 3 good readings in 18 holes. Disappointing.
Keeps saying waiting gps unstable
Works great on my S2 and even added a course near me that wasn't on originally
Total crap
Have not got it to work yet it causes me to have to restart phone. I Uninstalled it but was still in application forced stopped it and Uninstalled again, installed again working better. Still not able to get the gear to work it keeps asking me to start game when I know I picked the course. I will keep working on it. Or will cancel my monthly subscription.
If you have to buy it before you can try, forget it
The app tries to guess what hole your on. This does not work well when multiple holes start close together. It goes into a loop asking you if you want to change holes. Need to be able to select the hole manually instead
FOR A FREE DOWNLOAD APPLICATION THIS GPS RANGE FINDER CANNOT BE BEATEN.
I'm trying to login in my galaxy note 10.1 and is Impossible said I need to check my connection
Works great on the gear 2 neo. Thanks
App found my course and provided pretty accurate yardage on front 9. Could not get the scorecard to work. Would not advance to hole #10, only 9 holes were listed. When I tried to switch to green view, I got a message "coming soon". I removed the app.
I have used this app once with Samsung Galaxy Gear 2 Neo. It showed accurate distances but had some problems to be fixed. The bluetooth was disconnected frequently even though I carried S3 in my pants. And there is no hole number correction. Once it catches and shows wrong hole number, I had to restart the app from the beginning.
App is not bad, but no gear 2 support to try. There was a free version for it but has disappeared from the gear market. The only way to test it with the gear will cost $30.00+ and apparently will have an annual fee attached to that afterwards. I will improve rating when I can test the watch again and would even consider buying (even with the rediculous app price) if they drop the annual fee. We'll see.
doesn't work at all. once you "start" it goes to a screen that says "get hole map and data" then just sits there and freezes up
