TeeShot 1.7.1 is on coming soon. I just uploaded it to the iTunes store which usually means it will be available in the next couple of days.
What’s new? Well it isn’t a huge release but there are some nice improvements in version 1.7.1.
- Upload rounds to oobgolf.com - Users have been asking for this for a while and I am really happy to announce it is here. Thanks too the oobgolf folks for adding some new APIs to make this work.
- Users with GPS enabled iPhones can now see the distance to the green for any courses that have beeb GPS tagged. While this was possible in earlier versions for shot by shot tracking, it is now also available in the group scoring page and the hole scoring page. When the course has the coordinates for the green, you will see a new option at the bottom. Tap the little target button and it will give you the distance.
- Lots of stability improvements. Some people were getting crashes in shot by shot scoring and I think those are all fixed now. The group scoring page would sometimes have a problem where it would show a score from a previous hole. That is fixed now too, but you need to dismiss the keyboard with the Done button before going to the next hole
- Slope, rating and units are now editable for rounds. Just go into edit mode to be able to change them. You need to go to edit mode to change units on courses now too.
- Screen rotation is disabled. I meant to turn it off before 1.7 and forgot… oops! While it was interesting, it wasn’t terribly useful so I am going back to portrait only for now.
As always, your feedback is welcome so let us know what you think!
While it is getting a bit cold to play much right now, I still hope to see ya on the first tee!
