User Reviews

Users praise SwingU for being easy to use and for accurate distances, with helpful round features like hazard and green distances and club stats. However, recurring complaints focus on intrusive ads, scoring/navigation bugs (including jumping back to the first player and a 9-hole limit), and occasional reliability issues after updates. Some users also note unit-conversion quirks. Overall, it’s valuable when functioning smoothly, but ads and stability problems can disrupt rounds.

Pros

Easy to use / user-friendly interface
Accurate distance measurements, including hazards and green front/back
Rich round features: hazard/green distances, club distance stats, and score tracking
Responsive support and timely updates/fixes

Cons

Intrusive ads during rounds and score entry
Scoring entry/navigation bugs (jumps to the first player, difficulty finishing scores, 9-hole limit)
Reliability issues after updates (crashes, app quitting, watch app problems)
Occasional unit-conversion quirks (yards/meters)

Recent reviews

great app for someone that just needs front/middle/back distances. I'm using free version so it has ads. has all courses I've played. can be a little slow at start of round if signal isn't strong. Great value. thank you
