My Scottish Golf 4+

A useful app but I would like to see an option to display a list of all tee times for a selected date showing players names (rather than little grey or green squares as now). Yes it’s possible to see the names by tapping on the individual time slot but that adds your name whether you intend playing or not, which you then have to delete. Display size shouldn’t be a problem, I had BRS Golf on my smart phone which showed players names OK.

I have waited until the season started to try the app in competitions etc, but the app is a real step backwards compared to the functionality of the app we used over the past 2 years. All the good features lost, like being able to enter a competition, see other entrants, check the draw, see live scores and results. None of that this year so far. We are back to entering competitions on a sheet of paper in the clubhouse….so much for progress! And if you book 3 places in a 4 ball, someone else can take the 4th place…really!! Why was this not sorted before the season started? Why do we have a completely new system with a new developer? Surely Scottish Golf should be dictating what we want and not leaving it to the developer….Is this going to happen every time a new contract is awarded. I could go on, but I suspect SG aren’t even listening. Not a good return for our subscriptions.

Useful for tracking handicap, but some basic flaws. When entering a score, if you don’t have a constant, stable mobile data connection, the scoring regularly resets, causing you to lose some scores entered since you last had access to sync. Given that most courses in Scotland aren’t in build-up areas and don’t have a phone mast in the middle of them, this seems a nonsensical requirement.

Also, you have the option in the settings to determine which push notifications you receive, however this appears to have no impact. I have “Scottish Golf Messages” switched off, but I still receive push notifications for random, unwanted, promotional messages that Scottish Golf send me.
