Ratings and reviews

The functionality is great but what is the delay with adding new courses to the database? I live in a community that is actively building new courses, one opened in November and is still not available plus 3 others. Bushnell and some other GPS devices had the courses from day one. Since I keep all my rounds history in the app, it would be nice to have some type of option to manually set up a course for at least scorekeeping purposes while waiting for it to be mapped.

The shot capture feature in the practice doesn't work. I took videos for the first time, and I can see them attached to the practice session, but it won't let me watch them. Update: I can't even find the video stored on my device anywhere, I don't think it actually recorded anything, despite the camera icon next to the shots in the session view.

Editing a hole/scorecard is difficult, gross, not user friendly, and easy to accidentally delete the entire hole from scorecard with no way to add it back. There's no option to indicate that you're hitting a "punchout" or a "recovery". Doesn't tell you you're average 3 putts per round. All I can figure is not enough people use the app for Garmin to put any effort into it. I hope competition comes along and buries Garmin or inspires them to do better. I'd be ashamed if this was my product.
