1. 2/5Apple IOS phone app broken with Apple watch

   Would be nice to use both the phone app and Apple watch at the same time. Iphone 14 and Apple watch 7. Currently the phone app does not open if you are using the watch for club tracking. I believe this was broken when they rolled out the smoke sensors, which I had purchased above and beyond and only used them once due yo all the phone app issues. You cant look at yardages to objects with the phone app if the watch is tracking. Apple watch misses too many shots. You cant edit shots as you are playing. I do like the after round analytics. That is top notch. I do like that you can set the location of the pin, on the watch. Doesn't record chip shots very well so their is skewing of some of the numbers but oddly enough you can edit the chips on the watch, if you remember to. Support is terrible. Basically fill out a survey after the round! IMO the analytics are excellent but not worth the money as this product currently stands. Too expensive for the frustration you have working out all the nuances. There are other apps that are better at club and distance tracking using the apple watch but the data analytics cant beat arccos. I wish they could get the app right with the apple watch. I would still be a customer!

2. 3/5Works 90% of the time

   I have 63 rounds in this year with the Gen 3 sensors using only an Apple Watch Ultra as the sensor. The the stats work great if you remember to set the pin location every hole and you play each hole like you should. The yardages seem to be within 5 yards which is acceptable for an 12 handicap. Some shots out of the rough might not register along with some soft chips. The putting is hit or miss, I have gotten use to checking to make sure each putt was registered. There are some glaring issues and missing items I wish I could change: I know that I have to advance the hole manually to the next on two of the holes on my home course since the tee box is close to the greens. If I attempt to open the app on my phone during the round while using the watch as the sensor I end up with double the strokes because it logs each shot twice, I don’t even touch my phone during a round now. The last thing I would change/add would be distance to a hazard if it is in the direct line of play, the last thing I want to do is mental math when I am paying for a subscription to give me yardages. Overall I am probably at 75% on renewing just because I’m not sure if I want to start building data all over again in a new system.

3. 2/5Arccos Loyal but

   I have been using Arccos for a few years now and even bought the smart laser this winter. This latest app version is interesting but the older app had many features and displays I preferred better. I actually enjoyed seeing the Tour Quality recap after each round instead of just a list of Tour Quality shots. I preferred the strokes gained analysis on the old version too. As others have mentioned the font size is too small in this new app. I do appreciate some of the deeper insights the new app gives using AI, but it’s a little too busy for my liking now. I’ll probably adjust but not as excited to review my stats after every round as I used to be. Also, it would be nice to be able to use during a scramble without changing your stats. I deleted a scramble round I used the app for, but it still shows my record of 10 pars in a row (I wish I had done that on my own but…). Final comment, it should be easier to adjust and correct errors in the data. Just not enough user friendly options. Despite having all the items (Air, Laser, App), I may cancel all my subscriptions if I can’t get used to the new app.

4. 5/5Really helps hone your skills, but can be glitchy

   I purchased a complete set of Cobra clubs which came with the Arccos Sensors in the grips. After quick and easy install and setup with iPhone and Apple Watch, I was out playing and enjoying the product. It is amazing to start the app and play with your phone in your front pocket while the microphone and sensors in watch acknowledge when a shot is taken. Unlike, other tools like this, you do not have to input your shots or select to track them as u go around the course. The data it provides at end of round with handicaps for all aspects of your game can help fine tune where u need practice and help reduce your handicaps. That being said, recently as others have said I have had a few frustrating rounds where it will start the round and then later when I check or go to change pin location during rounds it shows all my shots are registering to hole 4 still while I’m on hole 9. It did it while I was on Torrey Pines when I really wanted it most. Love the app and the constant improvements. Thank you for the system and look forward to what you provide next.

5. 2/5Useful for in round gps, but other features not accurate enough

   I bought new clubs last year with the arccos sensors so I figured I might as well try this app. The GPS is useful for getting quick distances and the “plays like” distance is reasonably accurate and useful in making quick club selections. That alone might be worth a one time $100 charge- or whatever the subscription price is. The shot detection is bad enough to make the rest of the related features (handicap, scorecard, etc) mostly useless. At the end of 18 holes its any where from 5- 25 shots off and even less accurate hole by hole. It misses at least 25% of shots so when I check the app for a distance I usually have to adjust the hole I’m playing on because it thinks I’m still playing a previous hole. There would be so much manual adjustment and entry to make things accurate it’s just not worth it. I use the watch app for the GPS, but I just use paper cards to keep score. If this app were a one time purchase, it would be worth it, as an annual subscription, it’s not. It still needs a lot of work- also it eats phone and watch battery to the point that even at 100% charge it’s a toss up whether you’ll make it through a round
