This is the core of SimplyStroke. Tap the ball once as if you just took a shot. Your score updates on both screens.
Simple on purpose
No yardage maps, club recommendations, swing analysis, or setup maze. Just the controls you need to record the shot, correct the score, and finish the round.

Tap your Watch after every shot. A quick vibration tells you the stroke was counted, and your round controls remain on screen until you finish. Your iPhone can stay nearby in your bag or cart.
Golf already gives you enough to think about. Your lie. Your club. The water you're pretending not to see. The last thing you need is a number bouncing around in your head on the walk to the green.
SimplyStroke holds the count so you can get back to the shot in front of you.

After a stroke, add the club and a private note from your iPhone or Apple Watch. Dictate on the Watch, or add notes and photos after the round. Private details never appear on shared scorecards.
Photograph a paper scorecard on your iPhone. SimplyStroke reads the card on the device, highlights anything uncertain, and lets you review every score and par before saving it.
Open your complete history, follow separate 9-hole and 18-hole trends, set goals, see personal records, and share a season recap. Every course builds its own playbook from your past rounds.
Save the people you play with, revisit group results and head-to-head records, and connect several rounds into one golf-trip scoreboard. One Pro organizer can bring the crew. Friends keep playing free.
Older scorecards stay safely saved. They are never deleted when they leave the Free history window.
