User Reviews

GolfNow Compete is praised for ease of use and for enabling competition with friends, plus decent GPS/scorecard features. However, it suffers recurring reliability and feature issues: scores don’t save, logins fail, GPS can be unreliable, and there are gaps in game formats, GHIN integration, and Apple Watch support. These bugs and missing features hinder its long-term usefulness despite evident potential.

Pros

Easy to use / intuitive interface (several reviews note it's straightforward to use and user-friendly)
Good for competing with friends and tracking round scores (positively mentioned as a core use-case)
GPS accuracy and a useful scorecard that tracks fairways, putts, and greens (praised when functioning)

Cons

Scores and round data often fail to save or are not saved after submission, leading to incomplete rounds
Login/session issues appear frequently (sessions expire or users can’t log in)
Limited game formats and missing features (no skins, match play, or teams; GHIN integration lacking)
GPS reliability problems (location services stop working or fail to load)
Lack of Apple Watch support / no watch capability currently; users want watch integration

Recent reviews

Was super hopeful, but it’s been nothing but a let down. Issues with logging scores. When you enter, they don’t always save - and then it logs it as an incomplete game at the end. Also, you can’t see invitations from other users and where are the invites when you’re added by others? It’s nowhere to be found in the app.

This app used to be so good but they have a major bug. For the last 6 or so months I login then immediately it says my login expires. I pay for a GN subscription and I’m looking to get my money back. I can’t even use this app. I’ve deleted redownloaded you name it but it logs me out a few seconds after I login.
