TrackMyGolf Golf GPS Reviews

Not enough battery to last an entire round

Mruseless

Great concept, the app detected shots and putts brilliantly. However, only 3 stars since my Apple Watch can’t make it past hole 12 using the app. Tried everything to conserve battery but this app is a hog. Note: I tried this app last year with an Apple Watch version 1. Maybe the new Apple Watches have more battery life but the older models definitely do not.

Golf gps app with stats

olaFiveStar

Have you thought about tracking your club stats? Then you may have looked into gadgets, you know those that sell tags that you screw to the end of your golf clubs, and when you swing a club, you have to tag it so that the system knows you have recorded a shot? I am one of the early adopters. Let me tell you the stats are amazing, I finally know which club I am weak on. But, the process of using those system is a nightmare. I have to constantly remember to tag my shot, which distracts me from my games. Until one day, I found out about TrackMyGolf app. I have an Apple Watch already, so this is a no brainer to download. And I have to say, I am pleasantly surprised how good the system is. I regret not finding out about this app earlier, so I wasted all that money on the useless gadgets. Unlike those tag systems, where I have to remember to manually tag my shots, the Apple Watch automatically recognizes that I have swing, so it auto captures the shot. I can input the club used later on or on the spot, and move on. It is a painless process. I am a happy man now that I save money, automate data collection, and still be able to see the same data insight. Do not repeat my mistake wasting money on gadget, if you have Apple Watch, you have everything already, if you download this app.

Bait and switch

Enjoyed the app for about 1 year. Then, after having paid for this years subscription the app no longer works on my watch and won’t locate itself by phone or watch. Now I see there appears to be a renamed app that looks like this one.

Overall Good

I think this app is good overall but it could be great. I have two specific issues. First of all the club customization that is used on my I Phone does is not synchronized with my Apple Watch. Makes no sense so know I can track my yardage correctly. If you play on a course that has 27 holes there is no way to show the two douses you play that day as a round. Again a common situation that should have an easy solution.

Best Golf GPS App for Apple Watch by Far!!!

ZBGolfin

This is easily the best GPS app for Apple Watch. You just open your phone when you get to the course and start your round, then open the app on your watch, and put your watch in airplane mode. And that’s it! Then you have accurate gps yardages from your wrist (Not your Iphone). I Love it! Honestly this app was a big factor when choosing to buy my Apple Watch. I would absolutely recommend this app to any golfer with an Apple Watch. The paid subscription is totally worth it, and it beats purchasing a range finder or expensive garmin golf watch.

Needs work

Not clear at all how to add/edit shots. Following the instructions doesn’t really work. For example, if you choose Insert Shot After, it doesn’t. Great idea, just needs a lot of work.

Most innovative Golf GPS app

CrazyHandSum

I am looking for a reason to buy an Apple Watch, and this app pushed me over the edge. I own a Garmin golf watch, but I only use it for golfing. Whenever I golf, I have to dig around to find the Garmin Watch, make sure it is charged, it is always a hassle. This app is the future, we just get an Apple Watch, use it for a variety of purposes, like notification, Apple Pay, and when I need to golf, I just start the TrackMyGolf app. This is the future, like iPhone did 10 years ago, one general purpose device (watch) and many different apps. Now, on to the review of this app. First, the Watch app. It is full of features. I think using the Watch sensors to detect your swing is so innovative, and it makes a lot of sense. If the Watch has enough sensors, it should auto record your game. I do not know why other apps do not do it, must be some hard technical challenge. Kudos to the TrackMyGolf team for solving it. On top of auto recording, the app also gives you swing analysis, which is very useful if I have time to review it on the course. I do wish the swing analysis results are saved, so that I can review it later when I have time, and possibly run correlation analysis on the data. Beyond theses, I also love the auto hole advancing feature, which is super convenient. If it makes a mistake, it also offers a quick way to go back. For the phone app, it is feature rich too. The one feature I use most often is hole fly over. On new courses I have not played, it gives me a quick overview, so I know where to go and I can plan my shots. I hesitate whether I should get a series 3 Watch because of this feature. The new Watch app would allow me to completely ditch my phone at home, but it is this feature that kept the phone on me. I guess if I play courses I know already, I should just use the Watch app. I have studied other golf gps apps, this one seems to be the only one that can be 100% independent of phone. I think smart watches is the best invention ever for the game of golf, nobody wants to carry a bulky item like a phone or a laser range finder. Garmin is one of those who realizes the potential early on, and their golf watch is super successful. Now Apple Watch is here, TrackMyGolf is the first to realize the potential to replace those specialized watches. Who has the wrist space to carry a watch for golf, another for notification? I love that I can now combine both in the same watch. Apple Watch is just getting better and better, the screen is getting brighter, the battery is lasting longer, the processor is getting faster, now I can carry those advancement to my golf watch, hooray! It is a long review, but if you do not have time, just simply remember to download it. You would not regret it. If you encounter any problem, just email support, they are super responsive. You cannot go wrong with this app. Updating on my reviews...., I am still using this app as my main golf gps app after so long. I did experiment with several other apps too, but I come to realize that none of them is as good as this app. Really like the convenience and thoughtfulness that went into this app when they designed it. I must say I may be stuck with it for a long time, in a good way. I am surprised that no competitors have come up with a similar technology yet, it must be hard tech. Kudos to the team for making this happen!

Worked for a while but now takes 20 minutes to load then after the round does not record the score. Not good

Good but could be better

I searched around for the best app that works with Apple Watch and I think this is it. Like everything except its weak on statistics, doesn’t calculate much even tho it has all the data. The worst thing is that it calculates average driving distance but includes your iron shots on par 3s. Completely worthless. And yes, I did the math to verify this assertion. DEVs please fix this!

Love it!
