GolfLogix Golf GPS + 3D Putts Reviews

I’ve been using GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts as a Champion Member for ~5+ years. It’s been a great APP up until recently. I purchased an Apple iWatch 4 with Cellular/GPS and was hoping I wouldn’t need to carry my iPhone 8+ everywhere on the course and could just leave it in the cart and use the standalone GPS feature in the iWatch 4. Unfortunately, there is times the standalone GPS feature in the iWatch 4 appears to work and shows a different distance than what is shown on the iPhone 8+ sitting in the golf cart - and there is times the distance to the center of the green doesn’t change on the iWatch 4 as I walk 25-50 yards in front of the iPhone 8+ sitting in the golf cart. Please work to improve this feature.

Additionally, the new updates are a bit annoying. Why is it the approach and green maps automatically pop-up? This slows me down too much - I would rather have the ability to access approach and green maps when desired. Please add a feature where one can select a setting where the approach and green maps can be set to AUTO ON at the users request. Thanks

4/12 - Sent email on 4/1 to Developer (Gerald) IRT stand-alone GPS feature in iWatch 4 not working - it’s not reliable. I’ve been unable to leave my iPhone in the golf cart and receive a different distance on iWatch 4. I sent email to Gerald who indicated a possible syncing problem between iPhone and iWatch 4 but have yet to hear from Gerald. Disappointed.

I have used GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts for several years. It is by far the best (I have tried just about all of the golf apps available in GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts Store). I find the graphical representation of the hole much easier to view on the course and the score card is way better than any other out there. The only thing I wish it would include in an update is an option to include elevation and wind factors when determining distance - a Plays Like stat. I would find this way more usable than the putting line and approach features they added recently. Hopefully they will be adding it soon, as I see that several of their competitors already have implemented a Plays Like feature....🤞

The course listing is good, haven’t played an unlisted course yet and 90% of courses have the green details included. When doing the green detail the GPS can glitch out-sometimes so your alignment to the green isn’t correct and you have to rotate your orientation to imagine how it should be aligned. The best part of GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts is being able to plan two shots at a time, i.e. you can move the target around the hole to show if you hit it 150yds it will automatically display you have 100yds remaining to center green. However, this feature does mess up sometimes and GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts thinks you are on a different hole than your actual current hole. It would be nice if there was a reset button to keep it from “sticking” on a particular hole. It would also be nice if you could customize the UI a little bit. My push chart has a phone holder and I constantly have to take the phone out of the holder to get to the arrow buttons. If I could toggle the arrows to be at the top it would be nice. All said it’s a good app that gets the job done. A couple feature updates and it would be 5 stars from me.

Have use GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts since May 2017. I have liked & enjoyed using it but it’s always has been plagued by too many ads and pop-ups requiring unnecessary interrupting attention while on the golf course. I paid for the premium subscription to get rid of these annoying adds & pop-ups. They continued Even after my repeated complaints. Recently and most definitely after an update approximately 3 weeks ago the developers put out that has caused Put Break & game play tutorials to appear Multiple times during each hole play which Requires extensive attention to canceling the pop-ups to use GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts .
I Have written several emails to Support providing screenshots and information on this inconvenience as well as made numerous phone calls to Support That has produced no corrective results. At Support’s direction to correct the problem I have Uninstalled and reinstalled GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts on three different occasions that produced no corrective results. While I would highly recommend GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts when it is working properly at this time & until these issues have been corrected I strongly advise not downloading GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts or purchasing Any paid subscriptions for GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts.

First, it is necessary to upgrade to a premium membership to use this feature. When entering scores on your watch, if your iPhone is in the golf cart, and your are more than 15 feet from the cart your scores will appear to have been entered, but are then lost. The GPS accuracy is spotty - and it takes forever to actually provide accurate information - I found myself standing in the fairway waiting on my watch on every hole - embarassing. The final insult was when I attempted to use GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts on my watch, and received a message that I must upgrade to a Champion Membership to use the "refresh" feature. Well, I paid for the Champion Membership - so don't have a clue as to why it suddenly didn't work. So, there I was - no GPS distance for that round. Nice. I could have used my iPhone, but it was in the cart, and I didn't want to carry it with me each time I needed a distance. So, I've cancelled my subscription, and after paying $4, then $5 per month for the summer I fell like I wasted about $25 that could have been used to buy a Garmin GPS. My advice - save your money if you plan to use your Apple Watch.

Was looking for a golf gps that I could use with my Apple Watch. I’ve got over 321 rounds using GolfLogix on my phone but didn’t want to carry my phone around on the golf course. I have a Garmin watch but it doesn’t synch with my Apple Watch so I was looking for something else. I tried GolfLogix for my Apple Watch. I had a premium subscription but I couldn’t get GolfLogix to synch on the Apple Watch. I deleted GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts numerous times and reloaded but it finally told me I couldn’t use the features without an upgraded membership. I was just trying to get GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts open on the watch and wasn’t going to upgrade the membership without knowing it would work. Had to go with another app and hopefully that one will work. If you’re looking for a golf gps app for your phone, GolfLogix can’t be beat, even paying $20 for the upgraded membership. I just couldn’t get it to work on the Apple Watch.

I have used GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts for many years. Great app with all of the features mentioned. However, the same premium membership I have renewed each year suddenly doesn’t allow me to track and add clubs to my bag anymore. Not only that, if you try to do anything with a club in your bag, it deletes all the distances you have saved for that club over the years. You now need to purchase premium, and then purchase their plus plan for $50 more. Well, when I really needed it on vacation, it would only give me errors trying to upgrade, yet they still took my money, TWICE! I sent multiple emails via GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts to try to get support, and got zero response. That was 2 months ago. To this day I have never received any contact from them. I had to go through Apple who quickly returned my money after they saw GolfLogix did nothing to help fix the issue.
Should be a good app, but not worth it when you do not have any customer service when there are issues with app performance.
There are lots of good other options out there now for golf GPS apps.

I purchased GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts yesterday to use on the golf course today. What a horrible experience. First, the green mapping and putting lines stopped working after the 4th hole. Wouldn’t let me draw lines or anything. Couldn’t even enter my score from the frozen green view on EVERY HOLE. Had to return to hole view for it to let me enter my putts. Oh and trying to figure out where to put you ball and the pin on the map I’d an absolutely nightmare with the 3D rotation. Slows the game way down. Then the absolutely annoying feature that automatically switches to approach or putt view when you are close to the green. Keep it on hole view until I am ready to switch.

Let’s move into changing clubs. Totally annoying (and maybe I just haven’t figured it out because it’s definitely not an easy option). Get to the tee box enter a club and then decide to change a to a different club. Nope, couldn’t figure it out.

Also, on some holes when I advanced to the next hole it allowed me to enter my score. Other holes I had to back up to last hole and edit score card.

And finally. Why can’t I access a website to see my round on a larger screen like on a computer and make edits? Is there not a way? I keep trying to log in and all I get is set back to a login screen that says to login with an option to upgrade. No way to see my round????

Actually, way too many issues to list. Needless to say I will be cancelling the subscription.

I am using my Apple Watch as a golf watch. I have been searching for the best app to use with my watch. I do use my phone while I am golfing, but often I am away from the cart and just have my watch on my wrist and want a graphic of the hole on my watch. Although GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts does show the green in any surrounding bunkers, I was hoping it would give more information. I am also using Fun Golf app (now Tag Heuer) end it shows the entire whole, tee to green. You can use the scroll wheel on your watch to scroll through the entire hole and get distances to any specific location, something Golf Logix doesn’t do. Because I want to rely on my watch more than my phone, this is important to me. Aside from that, GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts itself is pretty great. One feature that is a must is the ability to be able to tap on your phone’s picture of the hole and see any distance to any object.

I have over 400 rounds with GolfLogix and I have been one of their biggest fans. HOWEVER, the new updates are more annoying than helpful. Why is it the approach and green maps automatically pop up? I would rather access them when I want to see them. Because of the auto pop ups I can barely get a full round in as long as it’s under 4 hours. The auto pop ups take 5-10 seconds to generate thus slowing me down. Most of the time I go from approach yardage to putting in the score. That is now a very painful process waiting for the green view to pop up so I can skip past it to enter the score.

Please add a feature where one can select a setting where these added value maps are auto on AT YOUR REQUEST? I dropped GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts from a five star to a three because this is EXTREMELY annoying in a game where we need no other annoyances. Will put it up to 5 when I can get rid of auto pop ups.

I paid for the premium option while the putt break feature and its percentage numbers are somewhat helpful when it comes to the approach shots and pitches and chips the percent numbers for the breaks are totally inaccurate. How do I know? I have been using the aim point for the last 3 years and I know three breaks from my feet and when I compare them with GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts most of the time I was shocked to find the discrepancies. On one of the top courses that I often play I did buy a greenbook from strackaline which make these books for pga pros and they used the laser scanner to scan the greens to get the breaks and their percent numbers and compare with golflogix putt breaks and these numbers are not even close!!!! On another course I play on one of the green the putt breaks in totally opposite direction to what golflogix says. This begs the question how golflogix got these breaks from? I'd say most of them are guesswork of some sort! Do not pay for the premium option because these are fake!

GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts keeps saying that it is unable to process the tee time being that it is unavailable or unable to process payment. I updated my card still same issue. Their website is absolutely not any better. Every time I have to re update all of my applied filters from date, sort, and radius when I click back. All in all, I was a golf logix avid user I may begin to look elsewhere, until they can hire a developing team to fix some major major major issues on their platforms. Sadly disappointed GL. I tried calling and their customer service team is not available on weekends and has goofy hours of operation. I hope you, that’s reading this, can take this review into serious consideration in fixing your business’ flaws that it has. I have hope and will try in the near future but gotta get some fixin in. I will fix my rating when they fix their issues. It deserves a 5 star but not u til they take action.

Cannot understand why some things were changed. Here are some things I truly miss.
1. When tracking each shot, if I accidentally select the wrong club, there is no option to change it.
2. I am never on the green where GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts says I am and it is difficult to move flag. Bring back the option to manually enter distance of putts.
2. I cannot put in different tee boxes played for each player. I play with my father and we use 2 different tee boxes.
3. When rotating the scorecard, I used to be able to see all players scores on front & back 9. This made it simple to take screen shots to post scores or send them out. Please bring back this summary of scores for all players with no stats!

This is a great gps and stat keeper, for that I'm giving it 5 stars. However, you do have the option to play a virtual practice round on any course near you. This is great for getting to know the course before you play. But there is an option to take a full swing with your phone. This is a great feature, but it is totally inaccurate. Now generally my ball flight is pretty darn straight, so I wasn't surprised when my drive went straight down the middle, but when I tried dramatic draws and fades, nothing. All in all, if you take this feature for what it is, it's great for getting to know the course, and this is a phenomenal gps. Get GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts , but don't go premium, it's great how it is.

I have used GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts for three years now. I thought it was a great app at the time, best one out there. Two winters ago they made updates, forced the upgrades the first time I used it that summer, which made GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts painful to use. Thankfully they listened to their users and fixed what was broken.

This spring I’m finding the same situation. They added the greens reading feature, which I am not interested in using yet. Now, every time I need to add my score (almost every time I hit a button) a screen pops up to turn on that feature. I’m assuming they want me to spend more money to buy it. I am sending an email asking how to stop that from popping up. I’ll repost after I figure it out.

Until then my review will remain at 3 stars. Would easily be 4 stars if it weren’t for the annoying forced updates. lw

I have really enjoyed GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts so far. I feel everything has bee well thought out and may switch to the paid version soon. I play alongside golfers that pay for a yard gadget, app always seems to been on line with their yard estimate. With that said, there is only one feature I really feel it is missing and should be easy to add. I play 2-3 times a week on the same course and have really felt it would be helpful to pull up course sad individual hole stats. For instance, what is my average stroke for hole 16? Or does my tee shot on hole 4 tend to push or pull? It seems GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts is tracking this but I haven’t found a way to pull the data on a course or hole by hole basis. Perhaps this is a paid function? If not, definitely a feature worth considering.

Had issues with GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts not keeping score correctly in sync with the phone. Reached out to support, got a canned response. Second response was the iWatch always has to be range of the iPhone. I keep my iPhone in the golf cart. So GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts may work good if you keep the phone in your pocket. I don’t and it was bad experience. Support didn’t offer much other then maybe engineers can look into it. I paid for a month of premium service before noticing this issue, my bad! Try it first before paying money.

I found a app called Golfshot that works perfect in my situation. Not saying to use that app instead of this no matter what, but if you don’t have phone on your hip while golfing but have iWatch, avoid GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts till they fix this!

Plus is it had good GPS range numbers and the putting green feature is nice. Just really disappointed in Support and how the iWatch works.

When exiting your played round to submit your score, the tees played from no longer shows for the course your playing. Makes you enter your own slope and rating. Been using GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts for years, but since the update, now I can’t enter the tees played from. I have over 200 rounds on GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts in the last two years, and no problems now this. Called support and they said it was fine on their end, it’s not fine on my end. They had no suggestions on how to fix my app. Reloaded app multiple times to no effect. Will be canceling my Premium membership before it renews.

Great app but the club tracking could be more user friendly. It would be great if there was a button you could push before you take your next shot letting GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts know where your previous shot landed and therefore giving you your distance for that prior club (possibly with a pop-up following to ask you what your last club was).

One other problem that I have encountered recently is the club suggestion and distance putting my shot directly in the middle of the water. Not a huge issue since you can move the target location but still annoying.

Other than those two things amazing app highly recommend!

This is a great golfer’s gps app. I’ve tried several and they have all had some sort of glitch, quirk, or design flaw in the coding.
This one has time and time again proven to be the most reliable.
It’s very user friendly, which I appreciate the most about it. When I’m on the course, my mind is on my game. The designers kept that in mind when creating GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts. Everything you want to know about the hole you’re on is easily accessible without having to switch focus.
It’s honestly like having your own personal yardage book, but for thousands of courses.

I have been using this program for some time and like it a lot. The problem I am having is related to my new iPhone XS. I usually shut the phone off and put it in my pocket after I get my yardages. The new phone has the off button on the right side and a volume button on the left. Sometimes when pushing the right button I also push the opposing button, guess what, that takes a screen shot. No big deal you say. If I got the yardages to the green when that happens I get a warning from the software I have violated the terms of the agreement by taking a screenshot. This has happened twice this year and the warning said if I do it again I may lose my privilege of using their software. Will I remember never to try and shut the phone off after viewing the green? I am sure I will forget someday and the software will somehow cease to work. How will this end? Sounds like a dilemma.

Tried them all before settling on Golfshot Pro. After 5 mostly satisfied years, that app started behaving very squirrelly so went looking for a replacement.

My priority is to be able to do it all on my Apple Watch, and GolfLogix meets my expectations in that regard.

Golflogix’s support blew me away. First day, noticed maps, bunker locations,
and distances for my home course were outdated. (Course had had a major overhaul two years ago.). Filed an error report through GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts ... with low expectations.

Had an email reply within 12 hours promising a quick fix. Updated course data appeared the next day.

By the way, my growing problems with Golfshot were fixed by purging app from my phone then reinstalling. Still, I am sticking with GolfLogix as it’s distances seem to update more quickly on my watch. Other features are largely identical

Do hope they get the green-reading data for my home course - now only available through a $700 app.

I have found errors with course information such as the par scoring being wrong or flip flopped on holes. There should be a way for a user to custom manage scorecards and edit the par value when errors are found or any other info. Or a way to submit errors for review. Only thing I found was to ask for approach and 3D putting info to “maybe be added someday”. Also when a course is under repair and some holes are closed and you have to play some holes a second time for 18 holes you should be able to do this but cannot without ending the round and starting a new round. Otherwise I’m very happy with GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts . Performs well for tracking score and shot tracking.

My first full year using GolfLogix is under my belt. I enjoyed using the program and found it very helpful. By mid-year I think I was taking advantage of every there was to offer. Distances and pin placements were two of the main benefits I used each round. I would have liked to use the putting and 3D greens features more often but found they used up a LOT of my battery.

Some suggestions...
1) optimize battery usage
2) recognize distances and course position more quickly
3) greens reading wasn’t possible when playing with others as it was VERY slow and doesn’t recognize your position on the green. Having to estimate where you are makes what should be a really cool feature almost useless. As we all know, if your position in relation to the hole is off my just a small amount the path of the ball could be totally different!
4) would love to make hole notes on best approaches and strategies for future reference.
5) would be great to tie in notes on weather conditions as well.
6) summary of clubs used on a hole would tie back to #4 above

Just downloaded GolfLogixGolfGPS3DPutts and purchased a 1 month subscription. One of the reasons I upgraded was to set pin positions in advance. The only way I see to do that is on the hole view but although I saved the location it does not appear on the approach or putting view which is where you really need it. Is that a bug? Otherwise the current function is pretty much useless.

Also the update notes say you can turn off the instructions in approach and putting modes, but I don’t see how to do that.

I haven’t used this on the course yet but looking at courses I play regularly it looks quite promising. At this point my rating is lower because of the things I mentioned.
