What it does with compatible Garmin hardware

When connected to a supported Garmin device, the app offers real-time round tracking and seamless score submission. You can send scorecards directly from the phone app during play, or sync your round afterward using Garmin Connect on mobile or Garmin Express on a computer. The app also collects stats and updates leaderboards automatically for partnered devices.

How to join without a Garmin unit

Even if you don’t own a compatible Garmin, you can still take part in weekly leaderboards and tournament-style events by entering scores manually. This makes it easy for everyone in your group to participate, regardless of the equipment they have.

Create events and stay connected

• Invite multiple friends to custom tournaments and monitor standings together
• Use the in-app live chat to communicate during events
• Track and review personal and group statistics after each round

Alerts and device interactivity

Some paired Garmin models can deliver smart notifications through the app, and for certain units you can respond to alerts directly. These features help you stay informed and engaged without missing a beat on the course.
