Contact Golf Pad GPS Rangefinder Support

Updating my review as I have the tags now. The app works great on Apple Watch without using tags, but using their tags causes the app to crash on the iPhone. It’s done this for months now. If you don’t want to use tags and an iPhone you’re ok.

This app is easy on the iPhone and Apple Watch battery (read their FAQs), accurate, helpful on the course and simply works. I tried the app alone and it worked well. Yardages were spot on and updated quickly. The setup for registering each club swing on the phone is well thought out. Since I have an Apple Watch, I tried their premium trial today. Watch app worked great (turned off watch’s heart monitor as it eats battery) and had 77% battery left after 18. The plays like distance takes into account elevation and weather, including wind, somehow and saved me on a par 4. We had some wind and the app was telling to hit about two clubs less off the tee. I followed the app’s advice, normally would have hit a club less. If I had hit one club less I would have been in trouble. Later I logged into web site to see uploaded round. Love the stats and I think I will be purchasing their club tags soon just to make registering club swings a little more convenient to pinpoint club distances and tendencies. Prior to the trial I emailed a few questions to the company and received quick and helpful responses. Nothing but a great app with good support.

The support team is very responsive. This app has had its growing pains but being in the software industry I understand. The link device for the iPhone still locks up when I try to turn it off but it’s easily reset. This is a good way to track your shots and distances. It gives you an accurate reading on how far you hit each of your clubs. I haven’t had any issues with the tags themselves as other people reported. I used to use golfshot GPS and with this app I don’t have to remember to track each shot. I just click the club in the link device and it tracks the distance until I click my next club. The link device also lets you mark the flag position. The only thing I would like to see improved is the distance of my last putt. I usually make my first putt and when I miss it I go and mark the flag position and then click my putter to the link and mark my last putt location. This usually gives some bogus distance. For example I can click the hole position and in the same spot click my putter to the link and it tells me my last putt was something crazy like 8 yards. A minor inconvenience.

You can also play an entire round bd without using the phone By just clicking clubs on the link device. I haven’t tried to play entire round this way but I have played several holes and it does work well.

I paid for this app and use my Apple Watch on the course. I’m very unhappy with the lack of distance updates. The phone will say one thing, the watch another and you don’t end up knowing which is correct, if either. It’s sometimes right but who knows when it is. Especially playing a new, unknown course. I probably will go back to my old Garmin. It’s much more accurate and doesn’t drain my phone battery.

Also, it doesn’t recognize if you start on hole 10. Sometimes if you put 10 in the phone it shows up differently on the watch. When you get to 1 for the back nine watch lists it as hole 19 or 21. Very confusing and disconcerting. What’s up with this? Sorry I bought this app.
