About this app

However you want to elevate your golf game, the Garmin Golf app has you covered. You can track your rounds and compete with your friends and fellow golfers on weekly leaderboards at more than 43,000 courses around the world.

Absolutely dispicable that Garmin limits this app to your phone and not Samsung s larger tablets. no excuse other than lazy software engineers. So if you were hoping to use a larger tablet on an indoor range so that you can actually see all the data and easily navigate instead of having to do it all in your little phone you are out of luck. phone is fine for portability and going to an outdoor driving range but it's absolutely ridiculous that this app is not also compatible with the Tab9FE+.

I’ve used Garmin Golf with my S70 and CT10 sensors for years. Hardware integration is excellent, reliable detection, fast syncing, and accurate data with minimal effort. However, the app feels dated compared to Shot Scope and Golfshot. The UI lacks polish, and editing is frustrating; deleting rogue shots is hard, and bugs like duplicate clubs persist. While stability has improved, it still lags behind rivals in usability. Solid enough, but imperfect. Hopefully Garmin will release an update.

The app gets stuck on holes. my local has the 5th out of action, so unless I walk over the closed hole, it will keep measuring the remainder of the round as if i were still on the 5th hole. Even if i manually enter in the score it stays stuck there. Even if i dont keep track of scores it still gets stuck in random places. Basically the golf part of the watch doesnt work. I have spent hours looking for a way to skip or move on, but cannot find it. so frustrating. Vivoactive4.
