USAGE NOTES:

SEARCHING for Courses: When searching for courses by name, you can just search for "Aug" instead of "Augusta National Golf Course" (leave out the quote marks).

SEARCHING for Courses: Radar button will find Mapped courses within 25mi/40km of your current location.

To save battery power, click your power button to turn off the screen when not in use.

Set your GPS timeout in the SkyDroid settings to control how long it stays active in the background. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

GPS accuracy can vary over time (click the GPS signal strength icon at any time to see your accuracy).

Before playing a course preview its mapping by clicking the link for the course name at www.skydroid.net/courses.php (best done using a large screen). Let us know of any mapping issues, or make changes yourself.

If we dont have your course, you can add it as long as there is a satellite image of the course available in Course Mapper.

Change distance measurement (yards/meters) in your device Settings.

While playing golf you will only incur data usage while using the Satellite View screen. Course downloads can be done at home over Wi-Fi and are small in size.



Enjoy your round!!

Customer Reviews

Yardage (2 stars)
Why can't I change yardage from meters to yards? It's set to yards on my iPhone settings. I'm confused.

I love my iPhone! (5 stars)
Unbelievable for $1.99! Why spend $200 on skycaddie. If you need to keep and upload your scores you will need more but for satellite views, shot tracking and distance to pin, this is all you need - and it's really fast. I had it downloaded and setup in the time it took our twosome to tee off.

Awesome (5 stars)
I used this app on my Droid for most of the Season, and I think it is awesome. I have played many different courses and they were all in there. Well worth the two bucks.
