GOLFTEC

I started using the app a few months ago after signing up for some lessons with GOLFTEC. The app works well for scheduling lessons and practice and the videos my instructor shares play perfectly. The on the course score tracking works well too and is great for helping me plan my round. There is a feature where you can set up your bag with your clubs and average distances. I have set this up multiple times and had that data lost multiple times. The in-app support option loads a blank screen. Navigating the menus predictable gets stuck on certain screens with your only option to restart the app. Overall I would give this five stars if not for data important to my lessons and game being lost periodically. I also very much appreciate the native iPad version of the app. It suffers from some of the same nagging bugs, but there are a lot of powerful features. The app seems to be updated regularly and I’m looking forward to fixes and new features.

The most helpful features of this application are as follows. The ability to review your before and after swing from each lesson along with voice notes from your coaches. The one swing adjustment you are making for the week will be corrected by one or two drills demonstrated by GOLFTEC coaches. These drills are available via video clips in each weeks lesson on the app. I can leave my lesson and forget about it until I’m ready to practice and then pull up the video to get myself working on what my coaches have suggested for that week by using this app. They always have the golf balls I use in stock in their Pro Shop. I was shocked at how quickly they shipped my order and how quickly they responded to my emails.

Scheduling has become more difficult. Not easy to view full list of appointments across months or view a calendar month overview only a list. Navigating between months is extremely slow to load and selecting a specific month doesn’t work. Credits and purchase history are inaccurate or not intuitive. Legacy lessons are missing. Practice session data would be a great add.
