Pros and cons of Golf Pad: Golf GPS & Scorecard app for iPhone and iPad

Golf Pad: Golf GPS & Scorecard app good for

This is an awesome app and I highly recommend it. Intuitive and simple to use. Unless you live in China like me that is. Here, the Internet is monitored and lots of useability is blocked, so youre gonna get very frustrated when your app cannot find the course youre on, despite you know for a fact that it is saved in the database! Such a pity..
Very basic and brilliantly easy to use. Adding features like saving of scores, multiplayer, course scorecard and handicap calculation would be nice additions.
Its presented nicely and works great but has one problem, you can only score for one person.
Easy to use, simple and better than paying a expensive golf GPS. The only thing is : you cant save your score card... :(
Easy to use. Cant wait to get a few more games in the system to see how it works down the line.
Easy to use. Always working and helps me to keep records of my games. Perhaps it could be greater if it was calculating handicap

Some bad moments

Good thought for an app but needs a lot of work. First, you cant add multiple players to keep track of scores...can only track yourself. Also, it doesnt save previous rounds so you cant compare each round to track your progress. Needs work....Id get something else.
Dont buy the premium to use with Apple Watch. I keep touching my Apple Watch sreen and the app do not respond. I have to Touch the screen about 7 Times before I can write my score. Vert frustrating when you have move to tour next stroke. If you are like me and need reading glasses, you Will have a hard Time seing the score, the part number and the hole number because these number are way to small. The distance number are very big so I can see well. It would be nice if the distance size number would be a little smaller and all the other number a little bigger. Plus trying to change to the next hole with the Apple Watch is again very hard because or does not change easily. I bought the premium for nothing because i Will not use this app anymore. To bad because it would be a great app if it would work with the Apple Watch like it supposed to.
Check that your favourite courses are in this app. Could be a great app but they are missing many courses. Especially in Canada.
I was on the 6 th hole and the app shut off. It opens for a second and shuts down. Any way to uninstall? I dont want to delete my app because I have not backed up my rounds.
Avoid this trash. I never review apps but this one was constantly tracking my location even when the app was completely closed and I was nowhere near a golf course. There is absolutely no reason for that.
I have written two reviews regarding this App. Both rejected because my two nicknames were used by others?? After purchasing this App and using it only a couple of times on my 6s IPhone, it froze! I finally had to delete the App with the loss $29.95. If I could rate this lower, I would!
