Set up once. Score every round. Improve with every read.
Open mygolfinsights.com in Chrome (Android) or Safari (iPhone). Tap Add to Home Screen. That's it — no App Store, no account, no payment details. It installs like a native app and works offline from that moment.
First launch opens a quick 3-step wizard: build your bag (clubs and carry distances), find your course (search our database or enter pars manually), and save a backup. Each step takes under 2 minutes and the wizard stays available from Setup → About until you're done.
When you start a round, pick your depth: Basic (score + putts only), Standard (the recommended middle ground), or Pro (full shot tracking). You can set a default in preferences and change it per round.
Designed to be fast. Ten seconds per hole in Standard mode.
Tap any hole from the scorecard view. Your scoring sheet slides up — tee section at the top, approach below, putts at the bottom. Large, glove-friendly buttons. Visible in full sun.
Tap your score, tap your putts, tap fairway hit or miss. In Standard mode that's your whole hole logged. In Pro mode you can add shot shape, miss direction, approach details — at the pace you want. Nothing is mandatory beyond score.
Tap Next Hole. The running score updates. Your card saves automatically after every hole — even if you close the app mid-round, your data is safe.
This is where Golf Insights earns its name.
Tap End Round from the scorecard. Your round is saved to history and the coaching engine runs automatically. A backup card appears at the bottom of your screen — one tap saves your full data file to iCloud Drive (iPhone) or your chosen cloud storage. Don't skip it.
Find it in Round History → tap any round → Coach Report. The engine analyses your data against 17 patterns and ranks findings by stroke impact — biggest leaks first.
As you log more rounds, the Stats tab builds your profile — fairways, GIR, scrambling, putting, front vs back. Trend indicators show what's moving and what's stuck.
Not a generic tip sheet — a ranked analysis of your specific round with actionable drills.
The single most impactful thing to work on before your next round. One specific drill — not a list. The engine picks it from whichever finding has the highest stroke impact.
"Spend 20 min on chips from tight lies. Scrambling at 24% is your biggest leak."
Every pattern the engine detects is ranked by how many strokes it's costing you. You see the top 3 findings with stroke impact numbers — so you know exactly where to focus practice time.
Short game −2.1 · Iron play −1.4 · Par 3s −0.9
The smarter insights come from cross-referencing stats. Fairways hit + GIR missed = iron problem, not a driving problem. The engine looks for these combinations so you don't practise the wrong thing.
"You hit 61% of fairways but only 29% of greens — your driver is fine, your irons need work."
How you score on par 3s, 4s, and 5s separately. Most players have one par type dragging their whole card — this shows you which one instantly.
Par 3: +1.6 avg · Par 4: +0.8 avg · Par 5: +0.2 avg → Fix the par 3 tee shot
If you consistently score worse on the back nine, it shows up here. Back nine fade is a stamina or focus pattern — knowing it exists is the first step to fixing it.
"Back nine averages 5 shots worse than front nine over your last 4 rounds."
In Pro mode, shot tags (Fat, Thin, Hero Shot, Club Up, etc.) are detected across your round. Two or more contact misses triggers a specific ball-striking drill recommendation.
"3 Fat contacts this round — focus on ball-first contact drills before next round."
Here's exactly what gets tracked and what it tells you about your game.
The percentage of par 4 and par 5 tee shots that find the fairway. Low fairway percentage forces longer, harder approach shots — every missed fairway makes the rest of the hole harder.
How often you reach the green in the number of shots that leaves 2 putts for par. The single most predictive stat for scoring — improving GIR from 20% to 40% is worth several shots per round.
How often you save par when you miss the green. The most underrated stat in amateur golf — a poor scrambling rate punishes every missed green twice. A strong scrambling rate turns bogeys into pars.
Your putting average across the round. Under 2.0 per hole is solid. Above 2.2 signals a lag putting or distance control problem. Tracked in every scoring mode — even Basic.
Your average score vs par, split by par 3, par 4, and par 5. Most amateurs carry one par type that's dragging their whole card. Knowing which one lets you practise with precision.
Your score on each half, compared to par. A consistent gap (back nine always worse) flags stamina, focus, or course management patterns that only show up over multiple rounds.
Yes. Install from Safari — tap the Share icon, then Add to Home Screen. Works on iOS 16.4+ with full offline support.
Nothing happens — the app keeps working. Every score is saved locally on your device as you go. Signal is never needed during a round.
Yes. Add as many courses as you like. Each round links to a course and the scoring sheet shows the right par for each hole automatically.
You can export your full round history to CSV and share that file. In-app sharing and multiplayer scoring is on the roadmap.
After every round, the app shows a backup card — one tap sends your full data to your iOS share sheet (save to iCloud Drive or Files) or downloads it on Android. On iPhone, back up after every round: iOS can clear PWA data after 7 days of inactivity. You can also back up any time from Setup → About → Backup Now.
Not to start. You can score rounds immediately after install with no sign-up. An account will be needed for cloud sync when that ships.
