Detailed Review

TheGrint positions itself as an all-in-one golf companion application, combining precise GPS rangefinder functionality with comprehensive scoring and statistical tracking. Developed by GRINT LLC, the app has established itself as a trusted tool among golf enthusiasts, boasting coverage of over 40,000 courses worldwide and integration with official USGA handicap systems. The application's core functionality revolves around its advanced GPS capabilities, which provide precise distances to greens, hazards, and landing zones. The Pro version enhances this with detailed green maps for 25,000+ courses, offering contour information critical for approach shots. Beyond distance measurement, TheGrint serves as a complete digital scorecard that automatically calculates handicaps, tracks performance statistics, and facilitates competitive games through various formats. The Apple Watch and Wear OS integration allows users to access GPS distances directly from their wrist, maintaining convenience during play. User experience demonstrates thoughtful design for on-course practicality, with intuitive navigation between GPS, scoring, and statistical views. The interface prioritizes quick access to essential information while maintaining comprehensive data tracking in the background. Real-world usage patterns show golfers primarily utilizing the GPS rangefinder during play while employing the statistical analysis features post-round to review performance trends and identify improvement areas. User feedback consistently highlights the application's reliability and depth of features. Mark Seaborn (July 30, 2025) praised the Swingman rangefinder functionality as 'a gem,' while PS Desert Rat (August 2, 2025) noted seamless Apple Watch integration for yardage tracking. Multiple reviewers, including Hahahahpenus (July 28, 2025), have suggested interface refinements such as thumb slide scales for putter distance input, indicating active user engagement with development improvements. The application demonstrates particular strength in its comprehensive approach to golf data management, though some users note occasional interface learning curves. The balance between advanced features and accessibility makes it most valuable for regular golfers who play multiple rounds monthly and seek to track performance improvements systematically. Tournament organization features and social tracking capabilities further enhance its utility for golf communities and league players.

The Grint is amazing. I enjoy the social piece. From sharing content and photos and seeing others experiences to course. The GPS is incredible and accurate with easy to adjust targets you can adjust if you know your ball is going to roll out, or if you need to carry a specific hazard. With the pro-version you get USGA membership and easy score uploads to maintain official handicap accuracy. Also a lot of great opportunities for Grint tournaments and events!

I’ve been using the Grint app for almost a year now. As far as using the app during a round, I no longer use a conventional scorecard. The app tracks my round in ways I didn’t even appreciate until using it for several rounds. The GPS features as well as green mapping provide a wealth of information. The social features of the Grint app extend the utility of the app far beyond any simple score keeping program. I can’t recommend the Grint app highly enough.
