About this app

Add another level of fun and competition to your game with the free Garmin Golf app. Download it to your phone to compete with your friends and fellow golfers. Each round can take on a tournament feel on any of more than 40,000 courses worldwide.

When paired with a compatible Garmin device, the Garmin Golf app lets you track your golf game in several ways. Some Garmin devices allow you to upload scorecards in real-time directly through the Garmin Golf app. Other devices require uploading your round through the Garmin Connect app on your phone or Garmin Express on your computer, and then you can review leaderboards and stats in Garmin Golf. (Refer to https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/p/590068#devices for a list of compatible devices.) You can also receive smart notifications and respond to notifications from some compatible Garmin devices that are paired with the app.

If you don’t have a compatible Garmin device, you can still use the app to participate in weekly leaderboards and tournaments by entering your score manually. Players can also set up their own tournament events, invite multiple friends to compete and live chat with one another during the events.

Garmin Golf needs SMS permission to allow you to receive and send SMS text messages from your Garmin devices (1). We also need call log permission to display incoming calls on your devices.

Ratings and reviews

I was under the impression you could use the app like some other apps that show distances on the hole as you're playing. All I can get it to do is keep score. When I'm done, my watch syncs to the app, then I can see where all my shot data. The CT10 devices work great with my watch, Instinct2 Solar, but then I have to do a sync after the round to get any info from the app. If I don't use my watch, all I would get was the score, no data. So the app is basically useless until post round analysis

I used a Sky Caddie hand held for years and paid $60 per year. I battled getting a watch. I was concerned a watch would not have a large enough screen and it may distract me with the watch on my wrist. Sky Caddie also kept all my statistics I like to examine. I pulled the trigger and bought the S62. I am so glad I did.... No fees great statistics recorded 40,000 courses preloaded easy to see & quicker use battery life Great for 3-4 rounds without recharging I do not even notice it on...
