MyScorecard: Everything Golf Reviews

MyScorecard won’t let me enter scores hole by hole, they just disappear after each time I submit so I just do total score instead. The gps functionality is lacking as well since it is only accurate 3/4 of the time. I purchased the watch app membership since it advertises distance from the hole but it’s horrible. It loses connection literally each time I look at the watch and says to be closer to your “device” aka your phone even though I’m holding my phone in my hand right next to my watch. It was using one of the 3 free trials of the watch app even though I purchased the watch membership and in the phone app it still shows the “Purchase watch membership” even though they definitely charged me $9.99 as shown in my bank statement. During one of the free trials after losing connection it went back to the “start round” screen and forced me to use another free trial. I’ve contacted support through email asking for troubleshooting help or a refund 3 times and I’ve yet to receive any response whatsoever. DO NOT PURCHASE THE WATCH MEMBERSHIP and honestly I wouldn’t recommend purchasing the phone app since they apparently don’t answer support questions at all.

I was in search of an app to help track my golf game for the season. I was disappointed to find that many of my local courses were not setup in MyScorecard . However, after a quick email to customer support, the courses were added (both scorecards and GPS data) in less than 36 hours. I will definitely be transitioning my free trial to the membership.

Love the new face-lift provided by the new interface. Thank you for releasing this. A couple of small tweaks would make this a 5 star app. First, it would be great to have a search option in the History section, at the top of the screen. Secondly, in the previous version I used to be able to see round history when I went to enter a score for a course I was playing. This was helpful to have previous rounds in a quick and easy review prior to playing the course again. Lastly, I wish there was a way to mark drops when entering hole by hole scores. Currently there is only the option of entering strokes, putts and Y/N on fairways hit. Counting drops would be useful. Thank you for your consideration!

I have been using this app for the best part of 15 years now. I don’t know what happened with this company/app but it seems to really have fallen apart in the last few years.

There used to be a watch app that integrated with the iPhone app. It sucked, it always disconnected from your phone and you would have to click a bunch of stuff every time you checked a yardage. I always used this app and regretfully I paid for a 3 year membership back in 2021. I had just got an Apple Watch and paid for the extra features for the watch app to integrate with my iPhone. Like I said it sucked but I still used it as it was convenient. About 6 months later they just removed the watch app. No communication, no refunds, no notification, nothing. Just gone.

Now they have like several day server outages where you can’t even connect to their database and login. Again, no emails or anything, just silence and I guess hope that the server issue is resolved eventually.

The website/iPhone app itself isn’t bad but I wouldn’t bother paying a membership these days and definitely don’t except any Apple Watch integration.

I got MyScorecard primary to get a handicap. It seems to do that okay, but I haven’t gone back and checked the number it’s given me. I noticed a lot of other issues. For example I would enter a score and after I submit it, it is one stroke more than what I entered. I had to delete and re-enter several times to figure out how to trick the system. There are other issues I see such as the badge system doesn’t work. There also isn’t much metrics that is given based on the hole by hole scores I’ve entered. Overall it’s an app that will give you a handicap and that’s about it.

When you submit a score on let’s say the 15th, your round will be recorded on the 14th!!! Some may say “No big deal” but with the new handicap system it is a big deal! Our Men’s club checks to make sure you post your scores so you have to wait until the next day to post it so the date records correctly. That’s just not right in today’s digital age!!!
All my golfing friends that use MyScorecard have the same problem. What’s worse is that I’ve written them three times about this issue and never received a reply.
At the end of this February I’m quitting this app and picking up a subscription to USGA Handicap through a local club. This is inexcusable and the fact that updates to MyScorecard only happens once every several years!!!!!!

Good, but some courses are not set up correctly so you can’t enter a proper score. Example: You may only be able to select The Blue Tees as playing none other show up. I played Albany Country Club outside of Albany, NY today and there is only one choice for the tee called Men’s tee with a slope of 130. We played the green tees with a slope of 121. Hence it gives a false handicap. Others may only show as 9 holes. MyScorecard is great if the course was entered right by the creators but I have now played 4 courses that are not set up correctly.

I would give MyScorecard 0 stars if the rating system would let me. I purchased because I wanted to track my handicap as a new golfer. MyScorecard is constantly crashing almost every time I select ok of its features. Would be a decent app if things actually functioned. The watch app (which has to be purchased separately) is a bit of a rip off. It never stays synced to the phone and shuts off seemingly at random during use. It claims to give you two free trials but it’ll crash twice in a row on one hole forcing you to cough up a few more bucks and still function poorly. I want my money back.

Tried to use this at a registered course on Saturday and was super disappointed. When on the fairway could not measure distance to hazards or fairway breaks. Not a very well thought out user journey from how to get backs and forth between score card and GPS. Watch app was absolutely not useful. Every time I tried to login it took forever and then when it did register and I dropped my wrist it would kick me back to the first screen. By the time I could finally use MyScorecard it put me on hole 18. Now I can’t even try it again because I apparently used my two free trials on one course on one day, without registering a single stroke.

I’ve used MyScorecard for years and was completely satisfied. The latest version doesn’t work well with the iPhone. If you are entering your score on the hole by hole scorecard, you can no longer mark if you you hit the fairway and you can’t see the entire scorecard. The problem is the entry numbers are so large they cover up the box you need to check and the total column is no longer visible. Also, the new version kicks you out of MyScorecard and you lose all your current round entries if you temporarily go to another app. This is a huge change from the previous app version.

The new update will not allow me to even enter my scores. Please fix this immediately!

***UPDATE*** The updated app will allow me to enter scores. It works perfectly. The problem is the new interface does not make it clear that tapping the “+” sign will bring up a list of courses and then you need to tap the actual course before trying to enter your score. This should be made more clear in the interface.

MyScorecard is awesome! It keeps my handicap accurately and shows great GPS for every course you can think of. It also gives you badges when you achieve something so you can keep track of your progress. Overall a great app and would recommend it to anyone wanting to have a USGA certified handicap and an accurate GPS. I love MyScorecard and will never stop using it.

I would strongly recommend you not use this product to record your handicap if you need an official handicap. The overall product is not accurate and does not keep up with changes with the PGA scorning requirements. I had an issue with my handicap and contacted support 3 times and never received any response. If you are looking for a general estimate of you handicap, this product may work for you. If you need an established Gen handicap, this will not provide an accurate handicap. I am not referring to the IOS app, but the overall product from the Web. If you are looking for an accurate handicap, I would strongly suggest you look at other providers!!!

So far I have enjoyed MyScorecard . It is easy to use and intuitive. My only complaint is that the course information (distance and par for each hole) is not accurate for my home course. Due to this I can’t track individual shot/hole data and can only enter a round total. I wish there were a way to manually flag a course needing an update or have the ability to edit the basics.

Purchased recently and not impressed with MyScorecard or the gps. Free apps like GolfNow have a much more detailed gps.
App won’t sync with watch, all it does is have the spinning thinking circle. Disappointing that you only have a trail period for the watch when you purchase MyScorecard , I paid the 2 year subscription, you would think the watch feature would be included but not that is another cost.
Lots of features in MyScorecard itself don’t work, no drop down menus for the rule book, games etc.
Hopefully things improve with updates, not worth my time to go chasing a refund.

MyScorecard does not work well. It loses connection within seconds and needs to log on every time you hit the ball. Ultimately, it does not sync well with my phone. Other Iwatch apps work and sync perfectly.
Very dissatisfied since I bought app in my phone to ultimately buy the watch. Now that I finally got it, huge disappointment. Hoping it gets fixed very soon!
Btw, sent this same complaint to their support team 1 mo ago and so far no response...solid 1-star!!! :(

Have used My Scorecard for my official USGA handicap for quite some time now and for a long period time it was a fine app. However, MyScorecard hasn’t worked in over a year... ever since halfway through the IOS 13 update MyScorecard won’t open whatsoever. I’ve tried contacting customer service of MyScorecard and I’ve gotten no reply. Seems like they’ve stopped doing maintenance on MyScorecard all together. The website for My Scorecard still works and I can still maintain my USGA handicap there. However, MyScorecard is dead and hasn’t been fixed.

I have been a longtime user of MyScorecard. I love it and it works great. My issue is with the Apple Watch app. This rolled out a few years ago… I paid for it, and used it for a while. It was a mess. Then it disappeared. When I reached out to customer service they said they were working on it to be effective for the latest Apple devices… I haven’t heard anything since. WHERE IS THE UPDATE?!

My scorecard is a great way to keep track of you scores, fairways, putts, sand saves, and handicap.

I wish you could manually enter a new course as some courses are not on their system and thus you can not post scores for those rounds even though you have a scorecard with an USGA course and slope rating on the card.

Also when a course has not been updated you can not post a round.

Those are my only concerns about what is an otherwise solid system for keeping track of my golf game.

Would recommend this system to anyone wanting to improve their game.

Sincerely,

John Colston

Robust golf card App but I should have used the free trial before sinking funds as I am unable to just pull up a basic card & keep score!

I often play at a local Par 3 that isn’t covered in their database and, because it’s not in there database, it won’t let me keep score!

I like “bells & whistles”, and I don’t expect a small local course to be available, but why not just provide a basic scorecard so I can track my performance over time?!

Watch app needs a serious overhaul. Played 18 yesterday using the watch for the first time. The +/- buttons for stroke and putts would randomly not work, the yardage constantly bounces around 10 to 15 yards, when I hit submit it did not link to my phone app so I had to input my round score separately, and between each stroke a message on my watch saying “Important: link between the paired device is not detected piped up forcing me to hit OK before continuing. Hope they can get these bugs fixed.

MyScorecard itself is good but when traveling abroad although it picked up the course now and again it did not have enough information to enable me to load my score. It gave me the opportunity to send an email requesting them to add the course detail but they never replied to any of my email. So overall a good app bud the support can be better and the number of courses available could be improved

I’ve been a user on My Scorecard for 5 seasons. All courses that I have played nationwide have been available on the My Scorecard directory for Handicap support and GPS distance measurements during the round. The Rounds History is a very nice resource, to bring up as needed to support memories. For the money, My Scorecard is a great bargain.

Great app. Would give 5 stars if could adjust incorrect slope and ratings to what is on actual scorecard from the course. Can do it from the website but was unable to using MyScorecard . That being said, most preprogrammed slopes and ratings I have played have been correct based on the tees played.

Been a user for many years now and always loved MyScorecard . Got the watch app to replace my Garmin but will be switching back. Sync issues, lost scores, no ability to find The Old Course in St Andrews while I’m standing on it, app shuts off on watch between each stroke, it’s ridiculous!
Customer service non-existent. Have sent 3 emails to try and get watch app working with no response.
Enjoy MyScorecard , but put the watch app money towards a real golf watch!

If you were able to make a group out of with all your golfing friends. Be able to see their scores posted. Where they played. Chat. Would make MyScorecard much more interactive.

MyScorecard should have the capabilities for our group to be visible. I should not have to go to the website to see my group. I also do not like the fact I cannot see my USGA card in MyScorecard .
UPDATE: app finally updated and I can view all the items above. Changed rating to 4 star

Hope someone at your office reads this. I have tried many times to log on and can’t. Can someone help me? I am using the same passwords etc. that I am supposed to. Please contact me so I can put my scores in. Thank you
