Golfscape GPS Rangefinder App Reviews

65 add

Fantastic

This is different than the traditional GPS Im used to. And it works on my 3GS

Update killed my Golfscape

The 1.3 update crashes everytime I try to run it. Uninstalled, reinstalled still no go. Went back to 1.2 and all is fine!

Upgrade killed it

Was a great ap but died with the upgrade. Help.

iOS 5

Current version works great after I updated the firmware (using iPhone 4). Love showing off this app on the teebox.

Cool Tech

Its kinda gimmicky, but a great twist on the augmented reality idea.

Different Perspective

Works great as a rangefinder. The distances were visible right away and were accurate. As far as rangefinders go its pretty affordable too!

Bad Day

The Application did not perform well. It would not lock in in some hole and was very inconsistant. I was very unsatified with the product and request a refund.

Useless

In practice, this app is useless. Its impossible to use, slow, inconsistent, and doesnt offer any actual help to your round. All the other products in the lineup are top class but this is a gimmick app that you will find yourself not using during your rounds

Cool Gimmick

This app is a neat tool to show off to friends but, not as usable on the course as Golfshot. A few update tweaks and it maybe ready for prime time.

Uses the phone camera

Using the phone camera and overlaying distances to hazards is cute but glare is a problem on a sunny day and who plays golf at night or in the rain? Doesnt give distance to or carry hazards either, and doesnt give distance to the pin. Gave it 2 stars.

Great Idea

I hate to admit that most of the reviews are spot on. Its a great idea, but not practice for real use. The main reason for this is the inconsistency with the compass. You need to be sure that your angle is right. This is not possible in a timely fashion given that it jumps around periodically. I gotta believe that its the apps fault because the regular iPhone compass is not nearly as inconsistent. Also, there should be very little interference with the compass when Im out in the open walking on the golf course. Without confidence in it, you will rarely use it in practical situations.

This app is great...at CRASHING

App looks good, but in fact, has never worked. I have downloaded and redownloaded. Wont work.

New experience for golf

Golfscape is a completely new rangefinder for golf. It feels like a real extension of the game when you hold it up to view distances wherever you point the camera. I like how it integrates with the scoring features of Golfshot. The compass is an issue on some holes. I needed to "recenter" it sometimes to line up the pin.

Need auto move to nexthole

Works great except it lacks an automatic move to next hole as does my Sky Caddie.

Crashes, Almost a YEAR since it was updated

This really needs to be fixed. Developers have no problems with sending promo emails every day...how about you spend some time fixing this instead? STILL no iPhone 5 screen support kills it too.

Loved the idea, but thats about it

I bought this app when it first came out and its had a bunch of attention since. I doubt Ive used it more than a couple of times on the course. Its more of a novelty than anything else. Total waste of money!

A dog and a beer

Nice idea, unremarkable functionality. 1) internal compass RARELY aligned image if course with the actual course 2) VERY difficult to see screen on a hazy day. Almost impossible to read on a bright afternoon. Kinda expected a bit more from this app, at $10, but was not to be. Buyer beware. Better off throwing your money down on a dog and brewski at the turn. Too many other options in the market to make this worthwhile.

Great inexpensive GPS app

Ive looked at many other apps. This one is a fantastic app for the price.

Only California Courses

I loved the Golf GPS app, but this one is a waste on the East Coast.

No support

Having problems getting app to recognize my golf shot credentials. Requested support and no one replies.
