Review Highlights

Very bad app, slow , bad servers and lots of crashes.

GB · recent

Please revert back to the older version of this app The new version loses the ability to player/peer search.

GB · recent

I have now twice experienced the same problem - part way through a round the app suddenly wants me to log in again and when I do I find the scores for the most recent few hikes have disappeared. I suspect this is due to poor data signals but this is a common problem on English golf courses. The app needs to keep the scores entered in a temporary location, not in the cloud, and should NEVER EVER require a relogin during a game

GB · recent

Since the recent update, it’s a lottery as to whether the app will load or not. Also the front page is not as good as it was before as it now requires an additional link to access own data rather than friends. I’ve had 6 attempts to access the app in the past 24hrs and only successfully accessed it once as the app keeps throwing up various errors.

GB · recent

So slow, glitchy, keeps logging out. Then the search function is so counterintuitive

GB · recent

Forever hanging. Woeful performance. A tragic upgrade of ever there was one.

GB · recent

The app does what I need it to and give me a handicap. But in regards to having paid for it it’s quite possibly the worst paid app I’ve ever spent on. Soooo slow just to change pages, and I get booted out constantly. The 2 stars is purely for it giving me my handicap.

GB · recent

Crashes more than it works

GB · recent

Shocking app, constantly glitching and losing scores. Just did update and has now failed to record my round!!!

GB · recent

This should be a simple app.. instead you’ve tried to make it fancy, but instead made it unreliable and frustrating

GB · recent

Constantly not working or extremely slow. Do better England Golf!!

GB · recent

Very bad today, kept logging out while recording my round, error messages etc. unreliable

GB · recent

App wouldn’t load, couldn’t send my scorecard and was punished with a penalty score

GB · recent

Issues logging in, will also log you out , scorecards lost mid round. No way to check your friend has received to attest. Honestly just total garbage.

GB · recent

If it wasn’t necessary to use this app, I would never use this. It’s absolutely shocking and the usability is terrible. So slow, glitchy, always loses connection, can shut down halfway through a round. England Golf have to put more money into this app if they want to “grow the game”. Don’t use this app as a reliable score counter. Only use it because you absolutely have to if you want a proper handicap

GB · recent

App performance is terrible. Often can’t login or complete score cards

GB · recent

Was due to play and record a round today, logged into the app as normal and was told to update it. I didn’t at first as it said I could do it later. I set the round up and then just as I went to press start round it kept crashing. I then updated it which has now led to the app not working whatsoever.

GB · recent

Not a great app at all - so slow and unreliable in all areas, from log-in to submitting scores to sending for approval. Very poor indeed. Generously gave it two stars.

GB · recent

This app has been changed and the changes are horrible

GB · recent

Constantly crashes and never loads. Honestly awful

GB · recent

This is the worse app, I have ever came across. Finding friends is awful to attest. Slow To load.

GB · recent

Slow app could be brilliant if they just made some fine tweeks to its overall performance

GB · recent

Not sure I particularly like the updated app, I agree with another comment about the green flag, not very good. Also, currently the 9 hole course at Broome Manor in Swindon does not work. I did email EG but a week later and still no response, all in all pretty rubbish. They have also changed how you enter the scorer. You used to be able to just type their name, first last, now you need their EG number, although I did work out you can type last, first name and that works. Why they can’t just list your friends names when you choose to look in friends as the scorer. All in all an ok app.

GB · recent

Useful app, but the new home screen is a backward step I use MyEG primarily to check my Handicap Index, recent scores and playing record. The recent redesign now appears to default to the Home/Golfers area, with social/friend activity more prominent than the core handicap and scoring information. For me, the main practical purpose of the app is handicap and score information. The social/golfers features are fine as a separate tab, but I do not want them as the default landing page. For me this makes the app less useful and less easy to use. Please allow users to choose their default opening screen, or restore the handicap/scores dashboard as the default. Please also allow feedback on the app through the app.

Doesn’t show score on card for my rounds. Needs fixing. England Golf? Embarrassing.

GB · recent

It would be helpful if the cross boarder function actually worked

GB · recent

Never ever rely on it as your scorecard. Today it lost my last four hole scores and logged me out. Fairly typical behaviour. Fortunately I had scored along on my Garmin.

GB · recent

Since the overhaul it is a bit better but finding friends to attest you is still appalling. Why is there no list of friends to select from? You have to type their name and hit search for them to appear on the list. It’s not intuitive at all. I’m forever being handed phones from older people I play with who struggle with it.

GB · recent

I really don’t like the new homepage layout. I preferred the previous version where my scores were the first thing I saw when I opened the app. Having friends’ activity taking priority over my own information makes it less useful and means I have to navigate further to find what I’m looking for. As a golfer, my scores, handicap and recent rounds are what I check most often, so I’d much rather see those on the homepage, with the social features available as a secondary option.

GB · recent

Really bad app. Hugely effective at signing up members and collecting payment, but not much else. I have never been able to get this app to find my playing partner and get them to attest my score. I ended up uninstalling and reinstalling the app to see if there was some issue that was stopping it from finding anything it its database. Upon reinstalling and logging back in, I found I could only proceed if I pay them £47. I’m new to golf and I’ve now begun to realise how few people playing golf actually bother to maintain a handicap. If I join a club in the future then maybe I’ll think about it, but this has been a waste of my time and money.

GB · recent

Since the update I can never find my friends or members at clubs to approve my card. Always no results for ages. Then eventually works

GB · recent

This app is just the worst app I’ve ever used. The backend of it is clearly not developed correctly - submitting scorecards for attesting is a nerve racking experience- because there is a high chance the person you’ve selected as the attested won’t get the notification, or if they do they can’t do anything with it. When you complain to MYEG they just pass the buck and direct you to your Golf Club. Seriously poor organisation and app. Good luck because you HAVE to use them to get a handicap.

GB · recent

App continues to be useless and crashed when trying to set up cards. I’ve just had a penalty applied, because I had a score card open that I couldn’t access due to the app crashing every time I tried to click the card to put my score in. Reported this to My EG didn’t get a reply. Honestly the user experience is terrible.

GB · recent

This has not been a good rollout of a replacement to an app that seemed to be working just fine. Issues: incorrect stroke indexes versus the official club ones, erroneous messaging (summary said a comment I received was about my round of 77 despite comment being tagged to a round of 83), and mixed up stableford points scoring. The handicap scatter chart is now too small to be of use, some of the colours (pastel shades) are not great at all and the summary page tells me less than previous. Please sort asap!

GB · recent

On a paper card, one player marks the scores and both players sign - one card, two signatures, done. The app should mirror that. If I open the app and have two membership numbers logged as playing the same course, that one session should let both players attest each other’s scores from the one phone. Instead, each player has to create and submit a separate electronic scorecard from scratch - duplicating the entire setup before anyone can attest. That makes the digital process slower and clumsier than the paper version it replaced. Same WHS requirement - less friction, digital should be slicker than paper not worse.

GB · recent

The old version was limited but functional. Now it’s a total mess. The first page is chaos. Why is the handicap graph so bad? I don’t need scores and friends on the same page. Also had loads of issues submitting scores for non England golf courses which is very very poor. Please update and correct these misguided updates ASAP

GB · recent

We pay to have an England golf handicap why have they now decided to pollute this app with ads.

GB · recent

There now appears to be a Phishing Scam popping up on the App when you open it. This App goes from bad to worse.

GB · recent

Since the latest update, when searching for other players, no results are being found. This is even the case when it’s a player I know is a member at my own club. The big update a month ago had some nice new features with it, but the layout is just too fiddly.

GB · recent

Since the latest update the player search filter doesn’t work!

GB · recent

This app has been updated but really could have been improved substantially rather than the current version. Basic searching for friends to attest your score for example has always been an issue. This has not been improved. Even when searching in friends, their names do not appear. I have just worked out that you need to search their surname first which is not obvious. Please change this or make a clear subheading to make it easier for users.

GB · recent

Can’t add new friends in update

GB · recent

Not remotely user friendly, no in app support that I can find. Despite having completed the requisite number of holes for a handicap, none is forthcoming. Considering this is a paid for app, it is absolutely appalling.

GB · recent

Really tricky to find things now… your counting rounds aren’t as obvious as before and the look and feel of the app is dated. Bring back the previous version.

GB · recent

Multiple times it has recorded a round that I havent scored. I have taken penalties for them very anoying. I only use it to input scores.

GB · recent

What are you doing? This app doesn’t work anymore. We are paying for this. Disgraceful. Searching for members just isn’t working

GB · recent

This app is awful the login is confusing and unclear. The premise of not being able to add a scorecard without a friend vertifying is pointless and don’t help just making this app worse. Also little golf courses are even on this app just making it useless

GB · recent

You have turned a half decent app into a nightmare. I can’t find any golfer who I know in the search section. Also the formatting on my iPad shows my previous rounds as nothing but dashes, except for the last three rounds. I am seriously thinking about deleting the app and switching to how did I do unless you improve the app substantially

GB · recent

Aside from problems connecting in rural spaces and insisting you use your at the golf club (which is frowned soon or downright banned in many clubhouse and on courses themselves) this app is far too restrictive. For something designed to attract new people to the game it’s too rooted in old-world stuffy golfer thinking. It assumes that people will cheat and be dishonest about scores and so restricts how and when you can up load them, insisting you’re near or on the course you’ve played and can corroborate your score with an existing member of the course you’re playing. This doesn’t reflect many people’s playing patterns and as such means it’s very cumbersome to get the required criteria to upload a round. You’d have to be pretty dedicated to use this, and I think you might as well join a course as try to use this stupid and compromised excuse by a governing body to extract money from casual players while trying to appease a clearly frustrated membership who they’re likely undercutting. Nice try but neither robust enough to deliver integrity it tries so desperately to offer nor accessible enough to be used easily in the real world of casual golf.

GB · helpful

Nice to have the app up and running so soon so we’ll done England golf. I’m sure over time new and improved features will be added. The main thing you need to do right away is make the Current handicap index much bigger and clearer. The main reason for this app is to quickly check your current index to then work out shots you receive on the day. Currently it’s very small at the top above the score graph. At the same time the list of your most recent scores and the index you had on your last round is more visible. As a Club Secretary I have noticed players use that much clearer figure thinking it’s their current index without noticing the small correct one at the top. Make it bigger MYEG!! It’s the main info we all need to be correctly identified and then used. Overall though it’s great to have quick access app and Keep up the good work!

GB · helpful

After taking up golf again couple years ago I was determined to get official handicap again and the MyEG app is certainly very helpful in keeping the HCP up to date but it does need some polishing. For starters it takes way to long to load and does seem very basic. More easier to find information about what rounds count towards the HCP would be good rather than having to trawl loads of webpages to find that table that shows the information. Another feature I’d like to see is the option to have friends auto populated on the attester page rather than having to search via clubs to find someone you might play with multiple times a week. Just have a favourites section there and waiting as well as the search function currently in use.

GB · helpful

Using this app seems so far relatively easy. I am new to golf and just recently obtained my official handicap. So far the only issues I have had are - a score has appeared on there when I was at work 280 miles away from the club I am registered at, so now trying to get the club to delete it as the feedback from the contact page is it’s down to the club. - second issue we we playing at my club and there was some IT issues not only for me. Even the young member of staff couldn’t work out the issue. However we worked around it only to get the auto generated email saying add a score or get a penalty. There is a score on there for that day so now waiting a reply. Don’t want a penalty for actually playing a round of golf

GB · helpful

This is the first and only App Store review I’ve ever written. That’s how spectacularly bad this app has become since the so-called “upgrade”. At first, I was delighted to see that rounds played outside England and Scotland could finally be entered. Unfortunately, that moment of optimism lasted about as long as a three-foot putt. Rounds now seem to exist in a state of quantum uncertainty. They may or may not appear. They may or may not be attested. Your playing partner may or may not receive the attestation request. Nobody knows. Schrödinger himself would be impressed. Even better, some rounds simply disappear into the ether without explanation. The app routinely fails at the most basic function it exists to perform: recording and processing golf scores. The whole thing feels less like a finished product and more like a beta test that was accidentally released to the public. If England Golf built this in-house, the development team should be nowhere near another software project. If it was outsourced, England Golf should demand a refund, recover every penny possible, and find a partner capable of delivering an app that can manage the revolutionary task of saving a golf score. An upgrade is supposed to make things better. This one has turned a functional app into a masterclass in how not to release software.

GB · helpful

I’m not sure who created or maintains the app, but bearing in mind they have the entire English golf playing population held to ransom in using this as standard, it has to be the worst app I’ve ever used. Rather than a rant, here is some feedback: Your login process is slow at best, at worst - unusable. Create better and quicker login and auth methods with more scalable databases. The search functionalities were created by someone who clearly doesn’t ever use the app. Spend time with actual users everyday on a golf course for a week - add people, find courses and see how unresponsive it is - EVERY TIME. The ability for the app to work in low cellular areas / black spots. Build the app so it is responsive to the most basic tasks - find course / add scorecard / add attester. Only focus on the core user flows working fast EVERY TIME. Notifications - I mean how have you created an app in 2025 that doesn’t have basic push notifications enabled? As a non-technical person I could user cursor to create a better app than this by myself in less than a month. TLDR - use the app yourself, dogfood it, work out the core user flows, speed up the app. Stop outsourcing this to the back end of beyond and get a small team of engineers in England to create a quality app.

GB · helpful

You would think it would be simple. Here’s an app to calculate your handicap what possibly could be difficult about that. Well, initially loading the app, to your designated courses (should it be on there ) with your playing partners is going to be your first challenge. Inputting your scores without kicking you out / losing your scores / forgetting which hole you just played and having to re-input your whole of your scorecard having being asked to log yourself back in! is a gimme. You will probably be doing this several times throughout your round. The app itself is full of negative space and what you’d really like to see is either not on there! or is in such small font you wish you could magnify the image, but that would be far too helpful. Whilst it does calculate your Stableford points as you make your way around the course, (in this ridiculously small font) on the final score sheet, this doesn’t appear. How wonderfully helpful is that. My impression is this application was built on a budget, it is the only excuse there is to justify how badly designed this app is. it’s probably done the App designers, no help putting their name to this. Certainly going to be cautious with any of there other offerings.

I’ve used the MyEG app for a number of years now with no issues whatsoever. Today (19th May 26) I received an email announcing an updated app. I downloaded it and it’s dreadful. There are error messages on various screens, the speed is slow on WiFi so what it’ll be like on the course is concerning. There also seems to be a shift in focus from you to friends in the app so they appear at the top of the home page. I then have to search to find my own scores/stats. I want the focus to be on my scores with the option of finding friends, not the other way around. The app is supposed to facilitate entering all scores when you play. As it stands I won’t even bother trying to login. This is just a distraction from golf not a way to record scores and stats as it used to be. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it!

GB · helpful

I think the app works well - i don’t relate to the negative comments. This is a great way to see all your scores and track your HC. I always start the card before the round, either fill out a paper scorecard or use my watch then fill it in after the round has finished. Cant understand why people would do it out on the course. Also good to ser a history of your scores. And when i play in club comps the scores automatically go on there wich is handy. I can also have a look at friends scores which is handy to have. App could look a little better but overall I find it works well and have no complaints

GB · helpful

They have redesigned the app to make it more about social features rather than the actual primary use of the app, placing “friends” above your recent scores! Like anyone is actually using that over checking their scores?!? Why do I now have to click through to see my graph and full latest scores? That is literally the primary reason we use the app - to track our handicap trend. Now we are greeted with a useless, narcissistic “MY EG” filling up half the home page. I already know it’s MY EG because I selected the app! I don’t need it to tell me in the app! Also, it’s become less clear which scores are counting and not, as they’ve replaced a big green circle with a piddly little flag and poorly contrasting colours… FIRE THESE UI FOOLS YOU HIRED TO MAKE THE APP LESS FRIENDLY ASAP

GB · helpful

We pay for this app so that we can get an ‘official’ handicap without paying an expensive club membership fee. Can you sort out the app so that it actually functions as expected. Yesterday for example I had to login 4 times during my round and it would also randomly forget scores on holes. It’s a good job I’m also using 18 Birdies which is a fantastic example of a quality golf app. Today I couldn’t even access the dashboard so I uninstalled and reinstalled the app… still issues. Get it sorted or you’ll be losing many customers!!

I’m just your average golfer who really enjoys playing golf. When I first got the app I thought it was pretty good app but after having it for a year or so there is a few things I’m not to keen on. When you are in the middle of nowhere having a game, you can forget putting your score in because you have to be next to the course and with poor signal it just won’t let you put in the scores at all. I currently have a problem where I have put my score in and a friend has signed it off all good and well but once accepted it seems to delete it self when I log back onto the app. I have to resend the same score card off to a friend weeks after playing. Even tho I live miles away from the course? Also there is some well known courses where I live but when you go to create a score card it just won’t come up with the markers but the course does. so I’m paying £40 a month to maybe get like 3 cards submitted.

GB · helpful

I am writing this after the latest May 2026 update which claims to fix a lot of the problems yet this app remains terrible. Slow to load, slow to create scorecards if that works at all. Presumably the influx of people trying the new app to see if it’s no longer terrible has overwhelmed the servers. Entirely predictable, entirely avoidable. Even when it settles down and things start working that won’t fix the awful UI, e.g. graph of hcp index where the data points in no way match my actual hcp index, black text on black backgrounds. And the worst part, this app is essentially mandatory to maintain a handicap AND I have paid for it through my annual subscription and yet I am being served adverts!

GB · helpful

Seems like a great idea but your scores can only count if you play with someone who also has the app and vouches for your round. Completely agree with this, keeps the integrity within the game. However I play 1-2 times per week but not a member of a club, I play with quite a few people but most don’t have the app as they don’t want to spend £40 and not have anyone vouch for them. I think this would work far more effectively and have more uptake if the cost was £15 per year. At the current cost I can’t input my scores to have them verified.

GB · helpful

The front page is silly now - it’s not one thing or the other because either to see friend’s HI or see my scores I have to click to go to a new page!! How daft! Why not just leave friend’s HI on the tab at the bottom as it was it can be seen in exactly the same number of presses as it is on new update (and as it was). I want my performance and scores on the front page - isn’t that the main purpose of the app?? Being able to work out team PH is very useful and the only reason I’ve not given the update 1 star.

GB · helpful

A good start but several things not good: 1. Login details aren’t stored so you have to enter your CDH and password each time. Who can remember their CDH number?!! Why can’t the retails be ‘remembered’ like most other apps? As a result my friends and I use the web version - don’t need the app! 2. Good to see lots of English courses, but why not Welsh and Scottish courses? We are using a WORLD handicap system so please update! 3. Nice to look at other courses and see what my playing handicap is. Would be better if I could see what others play off - when I visit another course I can put in my handicap index but I’d like to put in my playing partners indexes and see what they’re off. 4. England Golf ..... why is it banded as New Zealand Golf?!! Very poor that you haven’t changed the presentation layer. I’ve got the app on my iPhone but I’ll use the web version on my phone for the moment. Great shame.

GB · helpful

It does what you want it to do! I wasn’t expecting gps or anything it’s pretty much what it needs to be an electronic scorecard for your handicap! It’s made everything easy can’t help but think people want too much from the app, if you want GPS and scoring go use golf shot and put in your paper cards but time to move with the times in golf I feel and MYEG is doing just that. Great start to modernisation of the scoring systems

GB · helpful

This app seems to have service scalability issues and fails to work properly on Saturdays and Sundays when I guess their servers are most busy. It's resulted in being unable to submit 2 out of 4 scorecards in recent weeks. I've had no problems with 4G/5G data, and even tried on Clubhouse Wi-Fi but the app fails to allow me to enter the completed scorecard. My mates using it have the same issue. Also, why oh why can you only complete a scorecard when you are within 3 km within the course?! I prefer to do a paper scorecard as I go round and not be reliant on my phone having charge or cell signal. Please sort this!

GB · helpful

Absolutely horrendous app. I am due to enter some competitions so am required to have an official handicap. The app is incredibly slow. Sometimes I do not get past the splash screen. Then, I get constant network errors, telling me I cannot connect to the servers, and cannot progress to the scorecard. On the rare occasion that there doesn’t seem to be a network error, and I can record my scores, the app just crashes, and then corrupts my scorecard, so I have to delete the card I’m using in realtime, and enter it all again. I genuinely think that this is the worst app I have ever used, and there should be an alternative method for this.

GB · helpful

It’s fab to be able to have an official handicap without having to cough up subs for a club. However, I wish this app was slightly friendlier to use. If we’re paying £40-£50 a year, PLEASE remove ads from the app, I get that there are brand partners but there must be a way of showcasing this without ugly banner ads visible on every page in the app. Also, unskippable splash content on each opening of the app is absolutely mind numbing. I’ve been shown “Caddy Comps” so many times that I’m implicitly opposed to it.

GB · helpful

I like the new update especially the updated handicap calculator. The ability to group your friends is interesting and I find the new layout much more functional. The only downside however is that you’ve taken away the bold green highlight on the counting scores and replaced it with a very pale green and small flag making it more difficult to see. Would prefer the bold numbers or return. Other than that though, good job

I agree with a lot of the other comments made here about version 3. My specific gripes are as follows: - The homepage shows my friends’ scores followed by my latest three scores. I want my homepage to show my scores and only go to another page to see what my friends are doing. - The little green flag alongside my 8 counting scores of the last 20 is pathetic. Bring back the highlighting in green of the stroke scores. - The font size is ridiculously small and I can’t see a way to change it. - I don’t seem to be able to search for members of my club or any other club to check on their handicap index. I know we’re an honest bunch, but it seems to be a function that’s been taken away completely, probably for “privacy reasons“! Why do companies change things just for the sake of changing them, and who tests these apps?

The old version of the app was at least serviceable, but this update has made it worse. First, counting scores were far clearer in the old version. Second, you could check all handicaps for your own club, not just those of friends, which was useful when playing a ko match or organising a one-off-event with people you don’t normally play with, e.g. for verifying people had the requisite number of cards to play in an event. Now, however, it seems you have to be ‘friends’ before you can see anyone’s record, which is far less flexible. Why reduce the functionality?

First there is no obvious way to give any feedback within the app. The home page is messy. It’s not me and its not my friends. The vertical scale of the graph is too compressed. Friends have gone, they are now golfers. I help run a roll up. With the previous version i could look at my friends and see their current HCI and the HCI that they used for their last round. I could then update their handicap in my spreadsheet. Now i have to click on each golfer which is a pain.

Let’s be honest, it’s not supposed to be a fully functional golf app, there are plenty out there to do that. It’s just a method to submit scores for you handicap and that works. Couple of suggestions though are 1) to allow you to select from your friends list at the end of your round when looking for an attester. Pain having to search for clubs and names. 2) a watch app so I don’t have to get the phone out during the round to input my score.

Firstly, love the app. But it seems to be crashing in Wales (when visiting family) and I cannot log / start a round of golf. Have played twice in Wales recently but the app keeps crashing when I try to start a round. Courses are / were Peterstone Lakes and St Mellons. Hopefully this can be investigated, maybe it’s not just Wales but other territories? Typically I carded the round of my life on the one course so unable to log!

Every club member as far as I’m aware pays £9.50 per year to be an England Golf union member, and you still think it’s appropriate to display adverts in the app. The app is now without doubt the number one way members will judge england golf. Having to pay for adverts is a poor judgement call and should be stopped immediately. Any other company you pay a service to who then advertise to you would be unacceptable. Please also keep members updated with a roadmap of app development. When will it get Face ID login? Some very basic functions missing for what could be a slick and usable app.

App function is nice and simple to use however a few suggestions would be; 1. App should be able to function on smart watches to input scores - very basic. 2. I like that you can see your stableford scores as you are playing but when you submit your scorecard the stableford scores disappears which is very annoying 3. Seem to get logged out regularly. Remembering passwords / Face Recognition is the standard for most app logins these days.

To all the people saying how welsh and Scottish courses are not included and how they should be, the app is for ‘England golf’, meaning only English courses will show up. Overall, app does what it is designed to do, shows you your 20 most recent rounds, which ones count towards you handicap index and which ones will drop out first. Simple and easy to use.

I think the app is really handy and rarely have an issue with it. It would be nice if the user interface was updated to make it slicker and maybe you could dive a bit more into your own stats and your friends stats? I feel like with the development of tech these days it’s fairly straight forward to have an app with great UX, this just seems a bit clunky.

I’m all for an efficient system of maintaining handicaps in a consistent fashion. Unfortunately, this app falls short. The geolocating requirement means that if you don’t post the score immediately following your round at a club not near your home, you can’t post the score. That’s dumb. You also have to make sure that one of your playing partners is also signed up for the app so they can attest your scores. Seems just a way to capture more annual subscriptions. I’m sorry I signed up and need to find out how to cancel after having had the app for 3 days.

Can’t believe the negative reviews on here. It’s fantastic. Have linked to all my golfing buds…some of whom aren’t members anywhere and we all have a proper handicap, so no sharking! Great to follow mates progress regardless of where they play in the country. Most importantly it’s reduced the admin after a round and quickly updates the handicap. Spot on.. well done to the developers!

It’s a start, but for me the most frustrating thing is that you can’t submit a score within 2 hours, and you also then can’t submit a score unless you’re in close proximity to the course? Basically means I have to either stay at the club, or input my last score just before I play my next round. Very annoying. Given you have to have a playing partner verify your score, I don’t see why either of these are necessary.

I have had to change my review as version three is even worse than before. I did not believe this was possible. The helpful highlighting of your accounting scores in green has gone small green flag that you can’t really see has replaced them. The screen formatting is not fit for purpose and the finding of handicap that other courses is now task. I honestly did not think it was possible to make this app any worse but it is now much worse. Avoid at all costs.

Firstly, it’s an ugly app. Not an issue per se but also easily fixed. It calculates my index, so that’s a plus, and also means I don’t have to worry about paper scorecards and the pro shop being closed. Other than that, it’s not great. The UX is pretty old school and clunky, and all round not good. I now start the round before teeing off and then input the scores in one go afterwards. It’s way too slow to use during the round.

Good easy to use app. More convenient than using the website. Couple of additions required. 1. Need the app to give the choice of saving your login & password into Settings as it’s a pain having to remember your login each time. 2. Hopefully the library of courses with expand from just England to cover all around the world based on your location, as GPS watches do. Great start!

The new app needs reading glasses to use - in the past there was a big font of recent scores and clear green circles for the 8 counting rounds, now the font is smaller and the green has changed. Many golfers are 50+ and easy to read is important. I have also lost the friends tab where I could search for any player from my club - now this is all hidden in a submenu. So it is a backwards step - please revert back and improve some bits by all means but please don’t ruin the rest!

England Golf have announced “a refreshed MyEG experience”, but the app still feels miles away from what it should be. It is slow, buggy, and often fails to load properly. The UI feels at least 10 years out of date, the experience is clunky, and there are adverts everywhere, which makes the whole thing feel cheap rather than professional. For an organisation representing 750,000+ members, this is not something I would expect England Golf to proudly put their name on. Golfers rely on this app for scores, handicaps, and core England Golf services, so the quality should be much higher. Honestly, it feels like it was built by a team of chancers rather than experienced mobile app developers who understand modern UX, performance, reliability, and accessibility. Really disappointing. England Golf members deserve much better.

It’s a shame you can’t hook it up to a watch to input your scores during your round. I know it’s a modern world problem but having to continually look for my phone in my bag of many things! Really winds me up. Would just be easier if you could input scores via a watch. Otherwise there’s no issues with app.

Issues with the current app for me: 1. Unable to search and find players in other home nations that I am playing with, so can’t add them to attest a score, or attest scores for them. I was playing a round in England, with 3 Welsh registered players and was the only player that couldn’t put a card in. 2. App loses connectivity regularly during the round, which doesn’t help entering scores as you are playing as the app resets.

The app looks fresh, however when you send a game to a friend to attest you don’t have it showing as it did before the update leaving you frustrated to know if they have seen it or worse if you actually sent it through this really needs fixing
