Golf4Watch Rangefinder

Worked flawless. Easy to read from my Apple Watch.

I really love the simplicity of the app. I only use it for yardages so I have turned everything off except that. I did have to stop using it because of the battery issue, but after speaking with the developer he made it where you could choose to use your phone’s gps. Great customer service.

Used to love this app but now it won’t even load/connect. It just says that GPS is connecting but it never works. Shame because I really loved how simple and accurate it was.

Please fix the gps location for this app. I’ve reinstalled. I’ve reset my location and privacy. Nothing works. I just want this app to work on my watch and not just my phone. Please it could be so good

Overall it’s a great app. Latest upgrade got stuck in a loop and kept asking me to select a club. I had to turn off this option to make it usable. I often run out of battery so it would be nice to know how to improve the battery life.

I have been using this free golf GPS app on my Apple Watch Ultra for over 4 months now and it is amazingly reliable and accurate. Not only are the app’s reported yardages at my home course spot on when tested against sprinkler-marked yardages, they have also never been more than +/- 1 yard different from the best handheld range finders on the market. If you need more accurate front/ middle/ back yardages to greens than that, then you should be on tour with a professional caddie! Other great features: - I don’t have to run the app simultaneously on my iPhone, as the two GPS chips in the Apple Watch Ultra can handle all the heavy lifting without chewing up a lot of the watch’s battery. - the app has never failed to locate and download another course I might be visiting. - the app auto-progresses from hole to hole and the displayed yardages are large enough to be read easily. - the app can also auto-detect a swing and measure shot distance (although this is, frankly, something I seldom use since I can do distance math in my head like the rest of the thinking world! Those same basic counting skills mean I also don’t need “scoring” features on a golf GPS app, especially since courses still have things like scorecards and pencils if I ever find it too difficult to keep track of my score in my head!) All the features of Golf4Watch just work and are free. I repeat - FREE! Compare this app with other Apple Watch golf apps out there and see how much they charge for “premium features” or for monthly or annual subscriptions. For me, I simply love being able to wear the same watch before, during, and after a round. I get all the functionality of my Apple Watch and a great and simple golf GPS in one device. As a result, my Garmin S62 golf watch now sits unused in a desk drawer, hidden away so as not to visually taunt me for how much I paid for something that this little app does for free. Get this, use it, and you’ll be happy. Kudos to the developer for sharing it.

Simple and uses very little battery power.

I’ve tried many golf apps and this is the one that works best. It’s simple and it performs the most important task (front, center, back of green) perfectly. It’s easy to read for those of us that need readers but don’t wear them on the course. The shot tracking is a nice perk as well. Also, it doesn’t drain your Apple Watch battery like so many others.

I really like the app. Great features. I like how it knows when I hit a shot and tells me how far I hit the ball. I play at Palos Verdes golf club and it was very accurate EXCEPT for the 15th and 16th holes where it was approximately 50 and 100 yard off. Hopefully you can fix this.
