## SwingU Reviews in Vereinigtes Königreich

### ***** "Best golf app around"
Shot tracking, course GPS, players stats etc are all superb! Although I'd like to see the Plus version available on a monthly payment plan like the Pro version is.
-- cully001, 2025-10-26

### ***** "Amazing"
I don’t usually review apps but I’ve been using this for years and it’s one of the best apps I’ve ever downloaded. The free version is amazing with accurate distances and course maps. Would highly recommend it!
-- Camst16, 2025-10-20

### ***** "Great app"
Have used this app for a few years, better than others I have used, paid for it to get the additional features but the free version is great too
-- Andyscottpandy, 2025-10-09

### ***** "Excellent App"
Very accurate, never play without it
-- Amieory, 2025-09-03

### **--- "Apple Watch app doesn’t connect"
Watch app not working - one open it doesn’t respond and is locked on enter score/greenmaps screen
-- mike coach and parent, 2025-08-21

### ****- "Monthly options"
Why don’t you offer the plus version as a monthly subscription? The pro is to expensive, but can be paid monthly. Do the same with plus
-- Superdan44, 2025-07-14

Great app, does what it says on the tin
-- Spottybooy, 2025-06-29
