Apple Watch?
Sep 1, 2021 By cmkeyI like the gps enough that I would like it on my Apple Watch. It is faster loading than other apps I’ve tried. Didn’t see anything in the upgrade that appeals that much. -
Apple Watch Support
Jul 19, 2020 By MattL1212I really like the app on my iPhone and the ability to add the hole by hole scoring with statistics. However, I cannot keep my phone put away during a round because I’ll need to update the statistics and scoring every hole or so. An easy solution would be to provide support or an app for the Apple Watch and the ability to do the scoring and stats on that device. This way, the phone can stay in the bag! more -
Aug 7, 2021 By Timothy SpenceI really like the new GPS function. The map I used was accurate, easy to read, and easy to use. That being said while I used it for the first time I had a problem with the app constantly freezing. I know it is a new feature, but it was frustrating. Then when I pushed the review button at the end I got a white screen. Luckily after several minutes it reloaded. Hopefully this gets addressed in future updates. more -
Need Apple Watch before I would pay for it
Sep 16, 2021 By JoeyveeeeeI don’t want to have to carry around my phone the whole time I’m playing golf every other app has a Apple Watch app that you can use right on your wrist . Need to add this to the app for me to start using and paying -

Sep 11, 2021 By 118 mphWhat happened to the feature that allowed you to look up all the golfers in you association. Bring that feature back. -
Hole-by-hole entry not working
Sep 20, 2021 By Gold pilotSince the latest app update, hole-by-hole entry with or without stats just sits grayed and never goes to the entry page. Tried removing app and re-loading several times. I believe it's an app issue. -
Aug 22, 2021 By Thom MorgensternGPS feature isn't ready for prime time. Whenever I select Post With GPS then select my home course the app restarts. Endless loop. -
Fine, but new GPS feature doesn’t work.
Sep 5, 2021 By Muscular buttcheeksThe app is fine for what I primarily use it for, but the new GPS function doesn’t work. And it’s worthless to me without watch integration anyway. -
Perfect
Sep 8, 2021 By LjohillerWorth the wait. It works. It’s simple. And has details and apps that work. Nice work. Thank you. JM -
Sep 11, 2021 By Allen Campbellan essential service to golfers, thoughtfully convenient, and unusually reliable.

Aug 19, 2021 By James AndersonI wish I could like this app but it is extremely frustrating to attempt to use it. When you start the app, you only get distances and not the view of the fairway. If you go into scoring mode, and press the GPS icon, you then download the background fairway image. Why you can't download a course before you use it is beyond me. If you have a poor data connection, good luck because the app doesn't work at all. The app continually freezes when the phone goes into lock mode and you then unlock it. Sometimes if you wait until the next hole, you can get the app to function. But today, I just got a white screen and couldn't get it to work at all. It's nice to be able to add your data into GHIN while you golf but the problems with it, both in design decisions like no advance downloads, as well as the inoperability issues, to me makes this app useless and an embarrassment to the USGA. Galaxy S21. Android 11 with all current updates. more -
Sep 14, 2021 By Minh PhungThe GPS function is horrible. It's downloading everytime I pull up the fairway view. I don't understand why that's not cached. I paid the yearly fee and now I'm stuck. I may have to pay another yearly subscription for something better. more -
No gps function
Sep 1, 2021 By golfstlGPS does not work - maybe due to the smaller iPhone screen?? It gets locked in the ooenong page and will not advance. No cancel or continue button is visible and you can't move the screen or make it smaller to find a button. It's completely useless for gps. Easy to post scores tho. more -
Aug 5, 2021 By Eric StoufferBasic app has been fine. But then they just introduced the GPS features. They seem accurate enough. But 2 major deficiencies: 1) it is the worst battery suck I've seen in years. This is such a well known optimization that the GHIN s/w engineers should be ashamed. 2) both green views default to north as point of reference to the top of your phone. Not what you'd expect and not obvious until you look really close to see the green shape is off kilter. more -
Aug 15, 2021 By Colin SoderReally poor experience on the course using the GPS function. The app was consistently freezing and not allowing me to advance holes or to see my current distance to the hole. Even the rotate screen button would freeze so I couldn't switch from scorecard view back to hole gps view. definitely not going to use the gps function ever again. I'll keep it to post my score at the end of the round, of course. more -
Download TheGrint, 18 Birdies or GolfLogix
Sep 14, 2021 By PreferSpotify29As expected the USGA is 10 years behind the times. Their monopoly on the handicap system hurts golfs integration with personal technology. 18 birdies, thegrint and golflogix provide an exceptional product compared to this app. I learned how bad the GHIN app is the hard way. I input round data hole by hole only to learn 20 rounds is the max GHIN will store. USGA should outsource ALL technology operations instead of rolling out antiquated “updates”. more -
Aug 9, 2021 By Merrill GraySince last update, while using GPS, the app crashes and restarts when I try to advance to next hole. Map also appears white with distances, no image at all. So far GPS is completely useless. I hope they update it soon. I will consider purchasing the pro version. more -
Sep 2, 2021 By Robert NelsenVery poor, got notice to update, never loaded. Deleted we entire program, tried to reinstall, that got no where also. Very dissatisfied!! When had it worked ok, update or down load does not work. Total garbage -
App stuck
Aug 26, 2021 By M80ladyAfter updating app to the latest version the app is stuck on the trial screen which will not scroll or close even after returning to my home screen. App will not work as I cannot access the home screen. I restarted my phone and now it does not load at all more -
Aug 25, 2021 By Andrew BentonCustomer service sucks. New app update is stuck in a loop of where you go to start enter hole by hole score, that it kicks you back out to select a course. Emailed customer service twice over a couple weeks and no one can be bothered to reply more

Jul 31, 2021 By Shelby MarkusI have not been able to lookup golfers since downloading this app on my Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra. I am logged in on my computer and the lookup feature works but does not allow me to see the courses the other player played. A friend ofine can view other players courses through their app. What gives?! more -
Good, but could be improved.
Apr 2, 2012 By Avid4GolfFor me, this application loaded and works just fine and as advertised. I have a few recommendations that would make this an easier and better app.. First, when posting a score it would be helpful to not have to have the exact name of the course. I left the word "Club" off the end of a name and it came up with no matching courses. It would be great if after typing most of the name a pop-up would appear with a bunch of names from which to chose the correct course. Second, the slide scale button that you move back and forth on a horizontal scale that applies your index to a slope scale, acts a little squirrely - it's jumpy and it's hard to move the scale's button to the exact slope number. The plus and minus key can only be use once ( you can't push the key multiple times to adjust the slope, e.g. going from a 127 setting to a 129 or 130). It would be a lot easier to just type a slope number and it would calculate the handicap for that number. Third, the print is very small. For anyone over the age of 50, you better have your readers with you, otherwise you're toast. The easy fix would to increase the font size. more -
Sep 12, 2021 By henry sennoCan not open app anymore. It use to be very good app. Gave alot of info -
Needs upgrade already
Jan 28, 2020 By Romeo29erThis is just a preliminary review based on comparison of old app and this version. I am not a handicap “power user” (I don’t play a lot of tourneys) but do use some features i miss in this upgrade. 1 is being able to save my favorite courses with which tees i played so all i have to do when entering scores is choose it and go. 2nd is I believe when i played a course with my wife say, and went to the handicap calculator for that course and just plugged in our names it automatically told me how many strokes she whooped me by without having to be a CFO to figure it out. And 3rd I like to see my handicap history. Seems all i can see now is from Jan 1, 2020. Weird thing is I believe my ghin is tied to GAP and when i get an email link from GAP, i can see my history from June 2018 so data is there, so must need to tweak the “look up” function. Anyway, i do like the scoring features as i used to use a whole different app do keep those stats for fun so thumbs up for that; and i like, as the mobile app I before, I don’t have to wait to go to my club to enter the score. Looking forward to these fixes to up the review. more

Makes me Login every time!
Sep 14, 2021 By tjbarneyIt’s so annoying that it makes me login every time I open the app. I also prefer the older version, the newer isn’t as easy to use and view. -

Sep 6, 2021 By giz802The “offer” of a free trial cannot be closed since it can’t be resized to fit a small phone screen. Can’t use the app until the “free offer” can be closed. -
Worst GHIN System Yet
Sep 6, 2021 By Forced ErrorsEither I’m not understanding this system or it is almost useless. Much harder to navigate than previous systems. In my opinion, not too surprising considering the source.
