- Wow, I just discovered your application. You need to make it more visible.
Really nice app. I should test it during this weekend.
One suggestion would be to have the possibility to run it in French. If you put it in the application, I could do the translation if you want.
I have a couple of forums/website. I will advertise your app.

This really IS the nicest free BlackBerry golf app I've found. Everyone who sees it is amazed it does what their expensive StarCaddy does, but for free!07-03-11 07:04 AMLike 0 - ashworthBBGPSGolfWow, I just discovered your application. You need to make it more visible.

I use Google Translator but not sure how good that is going to be... lol...07-12-11 09:45 AMLike 0 -
- Thanks much for this app. I use it every week.
Suggestion:
Add an option for a "driving range" hole at each course. I use the range at a couple of courses in my area and the target yardages aren't usually kept up with the tee movements. A single extra "range" hole with 5-7 targets would solve that problem. The current app won't let me create a course with only 1 hole.
Along the same lines my course also has 3 "practice" holes that I would like to map but I have the same issue with that as I have with the driving range.
Suggestion/Question: I'm not sure if this is possible at the moment but I will be playing a course where I'm not sure I'll have data service. Is it possible to download a course ahead of time and store it locally or does this already happen and all I need to do is select the course while I'm still in data range?
thx

Also, some icon would be more graphical instead of words like "bunker", "dogleg", "tree"...11-09-11 06:39 AMLike 0 - ashworthBBGPSGolf
After you download a course and the google map images you can click the menu button from the main screen and select Downloaded Courses menu button.
No sure about having icons for words like "bunker", "dogleg", "tree". if you can come up with a good use case then we will see. Also I think it might look good with something like this:
To right greensize <image>bunker</image>
I think I would rather just see the work bunker since I am reading the screen anyways....11-09-11 08:00 AMLike 0 - ashworthBBGPSGolfI will think about it. It would be do-able, but adding the images on the screen would cause more CPU and therefor more battery drain. I have build the BBGPSGolf app with that always in mind. (I wanted to be at 25% battery level and still be able to play 18 holes of golf )
Currently I have no plans an updating the PinHighGPS application. I still have all of the code, but about a year ago my computer crashed and I have not rebuild my development environment for Android.11-16-11 09:42 AMLike 0 - Didn't know that graphics would squeeze battery juice. Minimum draining is a must indeed.
Too bad for the lack of Android development, but the app is already mature.
As far as New Course is concerned, did I understand correctly that BB and Android do not share the same database anymore = new course on BB will not be available for download from android?Last edited by chrisJP; 11-16-11 at 04:48 PM. Reason: Typo

- The program already stores the location of the Tee for each hole. I suggest that the program should show the distance to the tee in addition to the distance to the flag.
The advantage of this is that you can always see how far you are from the tee box, so for example, you can see how far your drive was. I know that you can mark a position and then measure the distance, but I often forget to do so, so if I can refer to the distance from the tee, I know how far my drive is.
Since the data is alraedy there, it should be a hard fix!04-02-12 09:03 AMLike 0 - ashworthBBGPSGolfThe program already stores the location of the Tee for each hole. I suggest that the program should show the distance to the tee in addition to the distance to the flag.

Suggestion:
Have the program ask if you are playing 9 or 18 when you start a new round. And then prompt which hole you are starting on. The program currently doesn't deal well with only playing 9, where perhaps if it knew in advance then after finishing hole 9 (or 18 if you just played the back) then it could act like the round is finished after just 9 holes instead of continuing to the "next" (10th) hole.05-06-12 12:36 PMLike 0 - That works, IF you tee off from that place you programmed. Most courses move tees daily though, so your programmed spot is unlikely to be accurate while using the Mark feature will always be dead on.05-29-12 12:10 AMLike 0
