SkyDroid - Golf GPS for Positive User Reviews

Superb why buy a more expensive gadget?Can only think that the people who don't like this have not got the nounce to use it properly, and it's simple to use at that!!! Used against a friends more expensive gadget and within a yard of each other!! Best £1.49 I ever spent on the sport of golf that's for sure!!!.Version: 1.8

Good applicationThis is only as accurate as the maps that are in the system. I noticed that on one course the X's on the greens were not accurately placed, so everyone who uses the map will be a little off. I think this is partly because the maps are created by users, some of whom are more careful than others. I created a map of my course. So if you know the course, you should check the map first, to, for example, make the center mark on the green is actually in the center. If it isn't, it is fairly easy to get access to the map and correct it. You need to do this before you go to the course because the editing has to be done on a large screen of the desktop in order to be accurate. You can fairly freely edit the maps. Make sure you get the largest image you can for placement of the marks. Great program....Version: 1.9.1

WatchApp works great. I use it at least twice a week. I just wish it would work on my Apple Watch..Version: 1.10.1

Fantastic cheap appIt amazing for the price. Would be so much better if it runs on the lock screen!!!.Version: 1.9.1

Fantastic best GPS golf AppWorks perfectly couldn't be without it, it's almost yard for yard against the bigger more expensive devices!!.Version: 1.9

Very goodUsed today around my home course and very impressed how accurate be interesting when properly put to the test.Version: 1.8

QualityFantastic bit of kit - I wish every other company in the world gave the same level of support Skydroid provide. QUALITY..Version: 1.8

Awosome, 5 STAR+Fantastic app, I was pleasently surprised of how good it was on the course and the whole of my club house now knows about it. will highly recomend, IT IS A 5 STAR +.Version: 1.8

Best GPS AppGreat way to get accurate yardages for less. Now with the update it will fit iPhone Plus models better. If your home course isn't in their database you can always map it yourself..Version: 1.10.1

App really worksMy friends and I flew to Phoenix for 4 days of golf. I forgot my range finder so decided to try this out. I'm as cheap as they get but I decided to throw 2$ at it. Skydroid really does work. I was surprised. Distances were really accurate. What I liked: + easy course search and fast download. + the PAUSE feature really saved my battery. I was worried the constant GPS updates would drain my iPhone 5s battery. However if you simply hit the pause button it stops location services till u need it next. Just unpause and your range will update. + hole overview (map view). First time to these courses and the map overview really helped to see what was over the hill or around the corner. + distances seemed very accurate to front, middle & back of green. I'd occasionally compare the app readings to yardage markers and they were spot on. - this app does not fix my golf swing 😜 Yes: I would recommend this app I am a real person - not paid or fake. I've never reviewed an app but this one was worth mentioning. Only 4 stars because I had to restart the app a few times . I'd unpause and the distance would go null even after waiting for a few seconds. Kind of a pain to restart then move to the hole I was playing. Other than that - AWESOME app. Glad I bought it..Version: 1.9.1

Great appOnly gave four stars for the simple fact it doesn’t work with Apple Watch please update soon love this app..Version: 1.10.1

Perfect golf gps app!This is not the first golf gps app I have tried but it will be the last, I now need no other! It gives you all the information you need in a well thought out screen layout plus you can flip to the satellite view if you need to know the distance to any other point on the hole. Add the fact that users can update / add courses and course features online and the fact that you don't need a data connection out on the course (apart from satellite mode obviously) and I don't think you will find a better golf gps app at this price, or any for that matter...Version: 1.8

Great app!Tried it out on the weekend, worked great. Distances were mostly accurate. The only time when problems seem to arise is when the holes aren’t mapped properly but you can easily fix them yourself online without any computing experience. I also tried mapping a course that hadn’t been already and that was easy as well. Wondering why there are $20+ apps out there when you can get this one.Version: 1.9.1

Great App worth the money!This app is great and has found every course I have played at and downloads them almost instantly. Only wish it had a scorecard attached to track scores..Version: 1.10.1

Best Golf GPS App Period!I was kinda skeptical about the app after reading some of the reviews on it discussing the delays in yardages and some courses not being mapped. I figured it's just 2 bucks, why not? Tried it with my foursome. It was side by side with a skycaddie, golf logix, and a Garmin device. If the app was not giving identical yardages, it was 1 yard off from the others. But, for hundreds of dollars less. I've tried other apps that needed my phone to be at 100% battery life at the 1st tee just to have it drain my battery by the 15th fairway. Not with sky droid. Started with 95% and finished with 60%. Outstanding! Don't waste your time and money with the others. As far as the delay goes, it was no different from the other 3 devices. In fact, the skycaddie didn't even get started until the 2nd hole. Go get this one..Version: 1.8

Amazing!!!!!!This golf gps app is very easy to use and the price is unreal for what you get. Struggled with previous apps as my golf club only recieves gprs internet signal but this app was 100% throughout my round!!! Very happy.Version: 1.9.1

AmazingSo worth the money and its so easy to use! This helped so much. I recommend this to people looking for a GPS on their phone!.Version: 1.9.1

Useful golf gpsThis app is quite easy to use and has allowed me to lower my scores. It has all the courses I play in Hawaii and yardage is pretty accurate. I prefer to use this app over my laser rangefinder..Version: 1.10.1

Well worth the moneyReally good app. Real bargin for the price. My course wasn't mapped, took me about 25mins using their website. Really easy to use and the course data was instantly available after I uploaded it..Version: 1.8

No problems hereI have been using this app for years and had no issues and it has worked great. I hate playing without it. Definitely worth the money..Version: 1.10.1

Simple to use and it works.Tried this three times, different course each time 5seconds to download. Just a quick look is all you need to do and this is its best feature- SIMPLICITY Can't wait to try it again, may even save me some shots..Version: 1.8

Fantastic golf gpsSimple, usable app. Great tool for any golfer when on the course. Brilliant, simple and clear! 10/10.Version: 1.8

Simple. Fast. PerfectI ususally don't review apps but this one is so genuinely good I had to get the word out there. Could not ask any more from an app. It is simple to use and provides GPS distances very quickly. The app is very intuitive and I appreciate that it isn't bogged down with scorecards, user stats, etc. A great feature of this app is that you can go online and plot any course the way you want. That pond you always hit it in? Boom now you know how far away it is. Battery life is fantastic too. Overall, by far the best value golf GPS app out there..Version: 1.9.1

Great appGreat app, very easy to use and easily best golf app I've used. My partner was using a sky caddie and yard ages were all the same. Has saved me £250 for a bushnell laser pointer. Will be best £1.49 ul ever spend.Version: 1.9.1

Easy to use very accurateSuch an amazing app, really easy to use and very accurate. I’ve tried every app available and always resort back to SkyDroid. Even expensive GPS available only complicate things, to that I say save your money, buy a good phone mount and use SkyDroid 100%.Version: 1.10.1

I like it simple and it didn’t cost $200I have been searching for a simple app and this one is perfect I don’t need the scorecard because it’s one of the reasons the battery goes fast. The gps and the hazard yardage is all I need with the right settings the battery doesn’t go less than 75%..Version: 1.10.1

I'm a believerDownloaded this app Thursday night as well as my local courses. Also downloaded the course I played the very next day and it worked flawlessly. Yardage was spot-on (within 1-2 yards on every hole). Still have over 50% battery after the round, the pause function is great. I give it a 5 star b/c of the price and ease of use, I also seen where this developer is going to add a scorecard and a couple of other options that have been mentioned. In short, my advice is to get it now b/c it would be easy for this app to cost more and I wouldn't be surprised if the cost goes up. (And yes it would still be worth purchasing).Version: 1.9

AwesomeThis is simply awesome!!! Mapping any courses not on the database takes minutes. Distance to any non mapped course feature is available on the course..Version: 1.8

Good cheap App, works well. Quick course downloadsReally good app for the money Works when my Nikon laser is misbehaving and gives me front middle and back nimbers. Really impressed with it and have used it for 4 years now..Version: 1.10.1

FantasticSo simple, easy to use and understand and very accurate. Really highly recommended for anyone that plays on a course with poor signage (my local one gets yardage wrong by about 20-30 yards on several holes...).Version: 1.9.1

Please add Apple Watch compatibility!Amazing app and used above many of the others but the only thing tempting me away is the lack of Apple Watch support.Version: 1.10.0

Has saved me so many shotsI have lost count of the times the app has saved me a shot because I was not at the distance I thought I was..Version: 1.9

Brilliantly simple!Perfect app! So simple which is exactly what you want out on the course, instant to load, good quick aerial photos if wanted. Yardages to f,c,b of greens, and hazards etc, can track shot distance too simply with one button!! Simply brilliant. Worth getting for the very small fee, cheaper than any posh watch widgets!! And probably just as good!!! Best app out there for this purpose! (I've tried most).Version: 1.9.1

ShirleyI live this app. Excellent..Version: 1.9.1

A great little appSimple to use. it is a great little app..Version: 1.10.1

Buy buy buy!This app worked really well at my local course near hemel Hempstead, for the money, fantastic value!.Version: 1.8

Simply the best!The easiest GPS app by far for the visually impaired like me to use. All the information you need is shown on the 1 screen and sold at an absolute gift of a price..Version: 1.9.1

Great app! Make a iwatch version!!!Ive had this app for a few years now. It is easy to use and pretty accurate..Version: 1.10.1

Great for we amateursAlthough I've only played regionally in Central Minnesota, every course I've played has been available on this app. I don't know how often maps are updated, if ever, as one hole on my old home course had distances listed all short of the green. The distances were correctly placed on the closeup photo, but the back of green measurement is 15 yards short of the green. Otherwise, my measurements are within a yard or two of guys' with lasers. Only issue is I use up my battery if I turn off the auto shut off for four hours, or I'm constantly having to re-open the phone..Version: 1.9.1

PhenomenalI've been using the sky droid app for about two years now. If you don't mind playing with your phone in your pocket, you'll love this APP. It's so easy to use and so convenient. Highly recommend for any skilled golfer. I'm a 15 HC, and I try to get out as much as possible. Distances are very accurate to the front, middle, and back of the green. I haven't really used the overview feature yet, but it seems to work well. Definitely worth the $1.99! Way better than spending hundreds on a range finder or other GPS device!!.Version: 1.9.1

What an app!This app is fantastic. Used it on a round and it was brilliant. The yardages come up almost instantly and there is little drain on your battery. Neat and clear, so easy to use. Quality..Version: 1.9.1

Great appThis is a great app I don't usually rate an app but this is the best 1.49 I have spent on an app . It is accurate and reliable and a bargin compared to buying a GPS device for £150.Version: 1.9.1

ExcellentFantastic app, works very well, for the money it's a complete bargain. I'm the UK and was delighted with the courses available..Version: 1.7

Amazing!I’ve had this app for years, back when it was free I think. This thing is super accurate as I am typically just a yard or two off of my buddies $300+ range finder. Unless you’re a pro who is flag hunting consistently, this app will get you darn close!.Version: 1.10.1

Superb. Easy to read, easy to use.Best £1.69 I have spent in years. I have used at least half a dozen free and low cost iPhone golf GPS apps and this is the best. Why, because if you need reading glasses to use an app, that is a huge nuisance out on the course. There are some great apps out there but they are useless if you can't read the screen without scrabbling for glasses. Too many use small numbers, colours giving poor contrast, or fussy screen designs, trying to be too clever. This one keeps it simple, big white numbers on a black background, plenty of detail about hazards, No adverts. Please don't ever change the interface unless you are going to make the numbers even bigger! Brilliant, just what I needed. Thanks..Version: 1.9.1

Great appsAccurate distance, clear view of course. Better than sky caddie..Version: 1.8

Great appHave had this app for a few years and have never had an issue with it, I have tried a lot of rangefinder apps and this one is by far the best. All they need now is to incorporate the AppleWatch.Version: 1.9.1

Fantastic golf gps app.I’ve tried numerous golf gps apps but this one is by far the best I’ve ever used. No annoying adds, easy to use and accurate. Does everything a standalone golf gps does with out the ridiculous price. Thoroughly recommended.+++.Version: 1.10.1

Works great but UI need updatingThe app is fantastic in performance. Consistently reliable distances to front, centre and back of the green. However, it's clear the app was designed for the iPhone 5 screen size. It would be nice to see it optimised for the larger iPhone 6/6s Plus screen sizes, as well as to match the iOS9 colour scheme and design..Version: 1.9.1

Excellent, easy to see and useRecommended to me by a friend and I have used it at 3 different courses so far without any problems. I use it in its basic form because I can see the distance to green without my reading glasses and that is just great.Version: 1.9.1

Great & SimpleGreat & Simple but need apple watch version only four stars because of that..Version: 1.10.1

Great!The simplest yet most comprehensive app I've come across. Just does what you need it to do, without all the extra stuff which you don't need or have the time for during a round of golf. And it didn't drain my battery as much as others. I don't normally write reviews, but I felt this app warranted one. Well worth the (ridiculously low) price..Version: 1.9.1

Simple clean interfaceGreat tech support that replied and fixed course in just a few hours, nice simple system to just look at and put back in pocket when playing. Great price to..Version: 1.9.1

Works great. Accurate, simple, cheap.Met a guy on my course walking a quick 9 after work. Our course has laser range finders on the carts, so I haven't had a great urge to spend $300 for a Skycaddie. But when I walk or play a different course, I wish I had one. So I tried 3 other iPhone apps; all drained my battery, and all were cumbersome enough to use that I found it distracted from my round. So when I saw this guy using his iPhone for distances, I needled him: haha, your battery is probably fried by now after 5 holes. He said nope, it'll last the whole round and then some - told me to download SkyDroid right then. I did. It took maybe a minute over 3G. By the next hole I was completely sold. This app is fast, simple, accurate, and doesn't drain your battery. It automatically advances to the next hole, even I'd you don't use it for an entire hole. It's always at the right place. If you golf and have a iPhone, get this app, and delete all your other range finder apps..Version: 1.8

I recommend it to everyoneThe best money I've spent for golf. The app works extremely well, even better than someone I'm playing with using a rangefinder. I don't know where the bad reviews come from but I guess it depends on the person. It works fantastically in the NJ/PA area. But I've taken in all over and never a problem. Also works on private courses. My only recommendation is to hibernate your phone in between shots. If you leave it on and the app the whole time it kills your battery. But if you hibernate it there is no problem. Because of this app, your will never have to buy a gps watch, range finder or gold gps. It app is a financial no brainer because the fact that you can see a satellite view of what is a head of you on any hole and how far out the hazard is allows for smarter play. Can't do that with a range finder or a golf watch. Maybe worth a range finder but they're like $250..Version: 1.10.1

Great appFantastic app,has many many courses in every area very accurate.Version: 1.8

AmazingBar far the best app I have purchased. Value for money is an understatement. Every course you play is there to download. Who needs a Garmin. Fantastic..Version: 1.9.1

Works greatWorks very well on ever course ive played....Always testing against other gps and range finders that other players have, and its accurate..Version: 1.10.1

Not finding coursesThe app is great but recently it wont bring up new courses for us to download.Version: 1.10.1

Excellent app - especially at this price!!!Highly recommend this app.....amazing value for money and has all the courses I play on available to use. If unsure if yours will be on here then check out the manufacturer site!!! £200 gps or a £1.49 app!!! No brainer!!!!.Version: 1.9.1

Excellent AppThis is my first experience of a golf gps system and I am very pleased. All the courses that I wanted on upload are there. The distances are accurate compared to sky caddie and a range finder. It doesn't use too much battery and it's fairly quick to update. The developers should be congratulated especially for the price!! Can you add score cards in an update?? Just being cheeky now!!!.Version: 1.8

Accurate and user friendlyBeen using the app for a few year. Best purchase on app store by far. Accurate as any GPS golf specific device my playing partners use. Best part is you can use their website to add your own course map points. So knowing my home course well i have pin pointed trees / hazards exactly. Makes club selection precise. New update has given it a fresh look!.Version: 1.10.0

Well-spent $2Been using SkyDroid all summer. My course plus 6 others. Very accurate...always comparable to buddies’ $300 range-finders. So I figure I’ve saved my self at least $298. Go for it..Version: 1.10.1

$2 Gets you hundreds of dollars in value!What a great app. I've been looking for a good golf app that can help me on the course. This is truly a gem of an app! For only $2, you wouldn't expect very much. However, I was able to find the courses that I wanted to play this past weekend. One was a city course and the other was a country club. Both were available for download. There are no additional costs to download courses. Not only will this app give you an overview of each hole you play, but it will also track your drives or any other shot for what you wish to know how far you hit the ball. Once you get to your ball, it is highly accurate to the front middle and back of the green. It also shows you yardage to each bunker or hazard, which is very useful off the tee or for your approach shot. It is almost like a golf video game in the palm of your hand, except you still have to execute the shot yourself and not with a game controller. I played on Sunday with a friend who has a Bushnell yardage finder, and it was as accurate as this app. I couldn't believe it! Kudos to the developers! Don't delay, get this app right now! You will not be disappointed..Version: 1.9.1

BrilliantUnbelievable app used it today couldn't fault it saved me a few shots exact same readings as my playing partner who paid £200 for his gps over the moon.Version: 1.8

Best Yardage KeeperThis is the best app I have on my phone. The GPS works better than my friend’s expensive products and was a whole lot cheaper. I have loved this app for years, and it has definitely helped my golf game..Version: 1.10.1

BargainThis app is unbelievable for £1.49. I thought it wasn't going to be accurate and a total pointless exercise.. How wrong was I! I went around my course with my mate's £300 bushnell and there was only a couple of yards difference. The long dog leg holes are not the most accurate because it seems to calculate it as crow flies but still a brilliant bit of kit!.Version: 1.8

Great valueUsed this in 3 rounds now and every time the yardage has been as accurate as my friends 300 pound sky caddy! Ideal for a higher handicapper like me as the info is as much as I need..Version: 1.9.1

AmazingThis is perfect! ... Better yet, my local course wasn't on so I went on skydroid website and added it (took about 5mins) and now when I play there it works.. Perfectly! Amazing, I'm not even kidding.. For £1.49 you are stupid not to buy it (if your a golfer) .. The distance changes as you walk as well, so it's mega accurate! And the tool where you can see how far you can drive I amazing! Thanks!!!!.Version: 1.8

Simply amazingBrilliant app used it 4 the 1st time and unlike similar apps this one really works as a result I knocked 4 shots off my round only downside is no scorecard if it had tht then it would be perfect.Version: 1.8

Slick and simpleLove the app, just the simple basics and easy to see and read. Love it..Version: 1.10.1

Great App - need Watch support!!!I have used this app for 2 years and it works great for me. However, I just got an Apple Watch and found that it doesn't support the watch. Guys, you need to fix that or I will move on. Once you lose me I am gone for good....Version: 1.10.1

Fantastic App!!!!This is the best golf app I have ever used, just played a new course using it, saved me loads of times, an absolute bargain, works better and is easier to use than my brothers sky caddie, we abandoned that and used this!! Had all the UK courses I play, gives distances to hazards, front / middle and back of greens. I can't recommend it enough..Version: 1.8

Sky droidBrilliant app not over complicated and I have no 3G on my course . This is the only one that works properly there :-).Version: 1.9.1

SkyDroid Golf AppWorth every penny brilliant app. Doesn't use your data, very accurate even when playing with friends and they've payed £300 for other Gps gadgets ha ha ha..Version: 1.8

Great app!Brilliant app. Checked yardages on my own course with a friends laser and is was spot on. Went to an obscure corner of France to play, found the course and downloaded in seconds! Thoroughly recommend..Version: 1.9.1

Excellent Golf GPS AppI love the simplicity and ease of use of this app. I've used this app for over a year now. During that time I tried several others with fancier artwork and more "features". Several times I would start a round with the other app and a couple of holes in would switch to this app. I found other apps had too many screens to navigate and drained my iPhone battery quickly. I also do not want to spend much time between shots fiddling with my phone... get in, get the info, get out and get my head in the next shot. I also like being able to check the mapping myself. Thanks for a great app at a great price!.Version: 1.9.1

Fantasic appUsed for first time on weekend and was amazed at how easy it was to use and how accurate it was, and all for the price of a cup of coffee..Version: 1.8

£250+ or £1.69? No ContestCan't believe I was considering paying for a laser range finder!! The most complete golf app you will ever need! Yardages to F,C,B and to main hazards! I can't rate this highly enough!!.Version: 1.9.1

Used this app all over AZ, CA and UT and has always worked great!A play 1 to 3 times a week and have say is this app always has worked for me exceptionally well! It’s my go to. I have paid for a few apps that are as much as $20 dollars and I come back to this app almost every time I play golf. Every time I want to track a shot distance for myself or someone else this app works amazing. Details and accuracy have been right on the money! Thanks for building a fantastic app that is free! Look forward to using this app for years to come!.Version: 1.10.1

Keep it simple stupidBeen frustrated with some other apps where each time i go back to check i have to toggle thru menus over and over each time to get back to where I was... Was almost going to buy one of those watches because all i want is easy access to basic yardage. This app is perfect. it is easy. loads fast. Gives you all the important data. Please don't add more features. please no scorecard or valueless graphics this app is perfect. Make a sister app if you can't resist fiddling but please keep this one like it is. 5 stars!.Version: 1.9.1

Excellent appHighly recommend this brilliant app. It gives all the important basic info like distance to front middle and back of green buyt also has a really cool feature where you can get a satellite view and see your position. It didn't drain my iPhone 4s battery, only used 25%. Brilliant app..Version: 1.8

Excellent appAn easy to use app that's as good as a dedicated golf GPS unit..Version: 1.9.1

Excellent appExcellent app and well worth the money, as said before would work better if worked on the lock screen but overall very good.Version: 1.9.1

Mr D R HodgesDoes everything (simply) that all golfer's need at the 'business' end of each hole - distances to the front, middle and back of each green. An excellent app for the price and a great find!.Version: 1.8
