Always wanted to play in a USGA Event. It has always gave me vibes and looked like a PGA Tour Tournament level of Pureness. I have been few shots shy b4. 2025 Goals ➡️ I will Qualify for a USGA Amateur Sanctioned Event sooner than later. ALL HAIL USGA Sanctioned Events🇺🇸⛳️ Always wanted to play in a USGA Event.

Update: since updating to the latest app version the iWatch and iPhone now work well together as intended. The team addressed the issues and fix the problem in a very timely fashion. One cannot ask for more than that. Thank You!! The app has been working well up until yesterday when I updated my iPhone IOS to 18.2 and the watch app to 11.2. Now the app on the iPhone works well but when trying to connect the iwatch it just says searching and to start round on iPhone. A problem we had in the past. The app probably needs an update to sync with the iPhone and watch app using the latest IOS updates App stopped working again after IOS update Update: since updating to the latest app version the iWatch and iPhone now work well together as intended.

Would love to see the entire scorecard on the view scorecard after posting scores. Mainly so I could screen shot to share with others. Right now you need to scroll to the side to view all 18 holes. Edit- found share scorecard option. Looks great. Score card view Would love to see the entire scorecard on the view scorecard after posting scores. Mainly so I could screen shot to share with others.

12.20.24 Update. The iOS 18.2 and Apple Watch 11.2 issue has been resolved. Quick response from the developers. Thank you. 12.14.24 Update: The iOS 18.2 and Watch 11.2 updates have broken the link between the GHIN iPhone and Apple Watch app. The phone app works fine. The Watch app ties to connect and then crashes. This is a step backward. The most recent release is significantly improved. It is stable and works very well with an Apple Watch. The GPS is fast and accurate. The green maps - heat maps and putt views are easy to use. Overall the app is much improved over the past few months. An area for enhancement would be to provide customized stat graphics similar to other apps such as Hole 19 or 18 Birdies. The app keeps getting better. Well done.
