Book Tee Time
This use to me my favorite app, but now it want even allow you to book a tee time. Keeps saying I need to download app whenever I already have it.
New to GolfLogix
I recently moved from GolfShot to GolfLogix, mainly for the greens info. I expected they would have the basics covered that I enjoyed with GolfShot, but have been disappointed. 1) Setting up a foursome: not at all intuitive and you need to have your partner’s index and emails available. But wait, having their emails is useless because the app does not email the results! 2) Apple Watch: the app asks if you want to link your Apple Watch (good), but when I access the watch the app appears to be lost on the course and does not show where I am in relation to the hole? Granted I am still learning the app, but so far not enamored with having to pay double for less.
Stopped working properly since last update
Since the last update was published, the app has not worked properly. You cannot book a tee time anymore, when you choose that option, it opens up the GolfLogix download instead, even though I already have it. Also, when you're playing a nine hole course, it asks if you want to extend your play, and when you choose that option, the scorecard does not move to 18 holes.
Prior Version was Better
Features on the latest software version could be good but appear to have been released before they were working properly. There is now a compass feature to rotate the view but it is never close, showing the fairway somewhere else entirely when I am standing in it. When getting half way to the green it only shows the green and not the hazards I am looking at. It also stops giving the yardage to the pin or even to the center of the green. I am a senior golfer and rarely can reach the green with my second shot, and the view from me to the green is now glossed over.
Version 9.x is improving but time to move on
Update to Version 9.08.2 Over the past two months I’ve used the paid or premier versions of Hole19, Golfshot, GHIN, 18 Birdies and GolfLogix. While the versions of GolfLogix are improving, the other apps are superior in both functionality and user interface. GolfLogix may achieve the desired functionality in time, but they’re not there yet. Better options are available. Update to Version 9.06 The app has improved with each version update. With 9.06 the Apple Watch has improved significantly. It provides the information needed and the UI is improved. I commend the developers for working to improve the app and releasing frequent updates. It’s not perfect but is getting better with each version update. Update to Ver 9.0.1 While I applaud the updated UI and graphics, the functionality isn’t very good. Some courses load and display properly. Other courses just display a rendering message for 10 minutes and never finish loading. In those cases the app doesn’t work, making the Premier Membership ill advised. Prior rounds, club distances and stats from years ago have disappeared and I assume will never return. Despite being on the market for a long time, the Ver 9.0 appears rough and in need of refinement and bug fixing. —————- I’ve used just about all of the golf GPS apps for Apple iOS and Apple Watch, including GolfLogix dating back to 2010. I recently purchased an annual subscription and started using GolfLogix for the first time in 3 years. I really like the greens maps and club distance. My only suggestions for improvement is in the area of user interface and stats. The UI looks very dated with the pop up windows for each of the stats, including stats for which the answer is 0. Hole 19 and other GPS apps have a much better UI. The stats are decent, but again other apps present the data in a more pleasing graphical format (Golftec, GHIN and Hole 19). GolfLogix has been around for a long time and is feature rich. A more modern approach to the UI and presentation of stats would earn five stars.
