this app is close to being great but it's pretty underwhelming with features. let me filter out obvious misreads and bogus shot distances from the Garmin ct10 sensors I have on my clubs. let me look at course maps I have downloaded whenever I want, I shouldn't have to go through a bunch of steps to begin playing a round and selecting tees just to look at a map I already downloaded. also GIVE MORE DATA, "work on getting ball closer to hole to avoid 3 putts" isn't insight Garmin.

Approach S50 on the latest firmware (9.05), both apps fully updated. My rounds save to Garmin Golf fine — scores are all there — but two rounds in a row the shot data never showed up (no shot maps at all) and the round never recorded as an activity in Garmin Connect. So I get a scorecard and nothing else: no shot tracking, no fitness activity, no way to actually review where the ball went. Settings are all correct — shot detection, statistics tracking, and Record Activity are on. Please fix

Have been using this for years and have loved it for years. However, in the last month, connections between the app and my Epix 2 and my z82 have been shaky to say the least, resulting in a loss of wind information. It seems like the app keeps shutting down. Have done all the standard things, cache, reset, reinstall of app but still connection keeps dropping. Please Garmin, what have you done to the app?
