User Reviews

The GHIN Android app shows strong value for handicap tracking and score posting when it works, but the dominant user feedback centers on reliability issues. Recurrent crashes during scoring, persistent registration/login failures, and the inability to post scores or access handicaps are common. GPS features are buggy or unavailable across devices and updates. Seasonal limitations and extra charges further hinder usability. A minority note that the app works in some contexts (including abroad) when functioning, but overall reliability is the primary concern.

Pros

Easy to use and generally user-friendly interface.
Valuable features for handicap tracking, posting scores, and calculating playing handicap.
Useful across locations, including use abroad.
GPS features can be accurate when they function.

Cons

Frequent crashes or restarts when scoring or after course map download.
Registration and login failures; error messages and lack of clear support contact.

Recent reviews

App crashes whenever I try and download a course to play. completely useless and nothing like getting frustrated before hitting the first tee box.

I would like a refund, and I've just written to ghin, and they've told me I need to come to the app store to get a refund. I find it clunky, slow, constantly needing to download courses or just crashing. I'm running it on a pixel 8a. Thank you for your prompt attention to this I paid $49.99 I've kept my ghin handicap for years, and I'm a big supporter of USGA. this app simply doesn't work for me and I would like a refund of $49.99 asap
