Ratings and reviews

Absolutely fine for posting scores. I wish the gps portion of the app were compatible with Android/Samsung watches. I use another app with that support to keep score during the round and then manually input the statistics into ghin separately. Would love to use the same app but having to pull my phone out of my pocket for every shot just slows play down too much.

Lately the app will not load on my phone. I've tried clearing the cache/data, uninstalling/reinstalling, rebooting phone, etc. I cannot log in from my computer either; I get an "internal error" message every time. I've used the app for several years and in general find it to be okay, but if you can't log in to record your score on the day you got a hole in one, it's useless!!!!!

I'm disappointed. Anything associated with the USGA should have the upmost quality and this app doesn't meet the expected standards and values of the USGA. Fine, if the intended functions are to post a score and maintain handicap indexes but very unreliable using the GPS features due to too many crashes and not being able to recover quickly in the middle of a round. I'm going back to my previous app and just use this app to post scores (basic function).

What's new

Thank you for using the GHIN App! In this update, we added enhancements to the Play with GPS/Games feature including displaying all golfers and their individual scores when viewing a match or group scorecard. For Net Matches, we are displaying the handicap strokes (“dots”) for each golfer when viewing the match scorecard.
