GHIN

Had the app for a couple of years and it mostly worked fine. The app would occasionally shut down during use but upon restart you could pick up where you left off and the scores for holes you played would be retained. In the past 6 months something has changed. When the app restarts all your scores are gone and it only shows the first 9 holes. So basically you have to record on a paper card while using the app. Kind of defeats the purpose of electronic scoring. When I tried to get help via their email I get no response. So I can’t recommend paying for this app which is kind of a shame because when it works it has some nice features.

Please default score entry at par please - makes no sense starting at bogey

The app continues to improve and I use the stats function often. I would like to see the following changes, upgrades. 1) change the colors for the stats. It doesn’t have to be a some kind of shade of green. Try a different color. 2) that doesn’t seem to be a way to select a penalty stroke. 3. When reviewing stats after a round, the data in the screen needs to be recalibrated so that you can clearly see the stats for fairway accuracy.

I’ve used the app for several years just fine and after the last update it doesn’t save the score on a hole when I advance forward. For example, on our #1 hole, Par 5, it starts me off at 6, when I change it to 5 and advance, when I go back, it’s back to 6.

This app DOES drain your battery. One issue is it doesn’t auto advance even after working through the settings. The biggest issue is the junk you have to endure on stats and hole by hole score. You can’t just get distances.

UPDATE: Both issues were fixed in the latest update! I changed my rating from 3 to 5 stars. Please allow for disabling turning the grown to switch holes. My glove turns the crown, so I’m always on the wrong hole. Also, the app keeps closing, even if I set Return to Clock to 1 hour. I need to reopen the app on the phone and hope it syncs with the phone app, which is still tracking a round. Find out how the other golf GPS apps make it work.

I loved this app the last two summers. It worked so well with my watch. This year, I’m lucky to even get it to connect to my watch. When I actually do get them connected, it will disconnect almost every hole and if it’s still connected, it will not show distance from the hole, only the score input screen for that hole will show up on my watch. I want my money back!! I will not renew next year if this does not get fixed. Other than that really big problem, I love the app. It’s easy to use and a nice looking app. Please fix this!! Edited: with the update it works for me better than ever! I hope it sticks! Thank you!!

The constantly closes down during a round while keeping score and stats. The problem is not with my iPhone. There is no tech support contact, you have to message your state USGA org and they have no way to help. When it worked it was a nice simple app. It has been broken for a month or two. I play a lot of rounds and dealing with this is a major pain. Not recommended.

I have been using the GHIN app on my iPhone for several years without issues. I upgraded the app so it would work with my iwatch ultra2. It worked for a few holes then lost it’s connection with the iPhone and requests I restart the round on the phone. This is hard to do doing your round and continues to occur throughout play. I should be concentrating on my game not this app. I noted numerous issues with other players about this app since its last update. What’s taking so long to fix the problem. I paid a yearly subscription so I can use it on my iwatch. Otherwise would have just used the free version on the phone. Can we please fix this. I’m sure we would all appreciate it! Update: I downloaded the latest updates to this app a few weeks ago. After using the app on Multiple rounds I’m pleased to say the app on my iwatch is now working as intended. There are no lost connections and the app on my iwatch and phone are stable. Thank you very much for fixing this issue. It really is very much appreciated.

I purchased the GHIN Enhanced GPS app and my Apple Watch crashed with each use. I really wanted this subscription to work so I tried several attempts. After rebooting app several times with no success, I requested refund from GHIN. Note to self: You must request refund from Apple. I should have requested a refund immediately rather than try to get the app to work. Apple refunded me only a partial payment due to time difference from initial purchase — don’t wait! Request refund immediately with Apple, the GHIN enhanced app doesn’t work with Apple Watch.
