Frequently Asked Questions
Does SkyCaddie Mobile have an Android Wear app?
SkyCaddie Mobile does not have an Android Wear app just yet, but we do have a few SkyCaddie watches like the SkyCaddie LINX GT that integrate with SkyCaddie Mobile. The connection between SkyCaddie Mobile and the SkyCaddie LINX GT creates the same experience as an app and Apple Watch. With the LINX GT, you have quick distances on your wrist with expanded views in SkyCaddie Mobile.

Does SkyCaddie Mobile replace my SkyCaddie?
Since SkyCaddie Mobile runs on a smartphone and not a precision-engineered and dedicated SkyCaddie device, it is NOT an equal substitute for a REAL SkyCaddie. However, SkyCaddie Mobile is the best golf GPS app on the market because it is powered by the same ground-verified and error-corrected TrueGround® Course Maps that make SkyCaddie the #1 Rated and Most Trusted Rangefinder in Golf.
Plus it fills a void in the Company's mission to provide a SkyCaddie for Every Golfer, while adding a new benefit of membership to current SkyCaddie customers who can use the Mobile version in several ways, such as:
If they forget their REAL SkyCaddie or it is not availableIf they use a SkyCaddie Watch (or older SkyCaddie without a large display) and love its simplicity and accuracy, but need an occasional quick look at the overall hole layoutIf they have a family member that plays occasionally and not yet ready to invest in a dedicated GPS device
How much data does SkyCaddie Mobile use during a normal round of golf?
The app uses approximately 20mb of data to download the course. But you can download the course over Wi-Fi before the round starts to save this data. And if you do this, you'll use less than 1mb of data during the round of golf.
How much does it cost to download SkyCaddie Mobile?
SkyCaddie Mobile is download in the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.

How to record a penalty shot
The easiest way is to simply enter the number of penalty shots on the Scorecard. You can track the stats in real-time in the SkyCaddie Mobile app. To track the penalty stats in SCM, go to your Stat Settings and enable the "Mobile Option" for these stats.
The other way is to record a penalty shot. You can use the manual shot tracker feature (ball icon in lower right corner) in SCM, or you can learn the divot tool to one of the penalty shots and tag it on the course. Click here to view an example.
This method only really works for Penalty Shots because it's only a stroke penalty. For stroke and distance penalties (i.e. OB / Lost Ball), you're hitting from the same location likely with the same club so there's really no need to tag a penalty shot.
