I received the Player+ speaker for Father’s Day and was really happy with how it performed for the most part. The only 2 things that I’d deduct stars for are #1, the lack of integration with Apple Watch. Most golf apps work with Apple Watch and this allows for a much more seamless round. I ended up not using any of the premium features because if I took my phone in my pocket, the music would start cutting out around the greens, so I just didn’t input anything on the phone. If this was doable via my Apple Watch, it would have been 100% more functional. #2 is the battery life. It’s rated for 10 hours, but we played 1 round, lasting just around 4 hours and the Player + showed 25% batter left. For the most part, this was great, but longer battery life and Apple Watch integration would make it dang near perfect! I just don’t see why I would keep the premium subscription after the trial without the Apple Watch integration.

I have used a large number of golf tracking apps and deduced to give Blue Tees a try after getting the speaker as a gift this Christmas. Overall it’s okay, but makes some features harder to do than needed. It’s easy to input score for a hole and putts, but adding info about fairways and greens hit is in a completely different flow. There is also no way to adjust a round after you start one. Played last week and on the first tee the group I got paired with selected to play the Blues when I had setup the app to use the whites. No way to correct it during the round other than to end the round and create a new one. The hole fly over and distance details are great. And shot tracking is far easier than other apps. But scoring is clunky and needs work.

I use speaker and blue tees app with a diamond membership. Speaker it’s awesome and sound quality phenomenal. It’s so good it has replaced all the portable speakers in my house. Having the ranges on the speaker for quick reference has made it so I don’t need to pull out my range finder and I have compared the ranges to a rangefinder they are very accurate! I have used a lot of golf apps previously and this one is by far my favorite. Love the ability to track distances for each club and the simplicity of the app. It has a summary page that will throw all golf stats in a easy display and fun to look at, to include amount of Birdies, PARs, and bogeys based off the rounds logged through the app. The Blue Tees team is easy to work with and if a course is missing you can send in a score card and they always get it updated within a couple days. I just recently used some of their advanced features that include a reconstructed flyover or a hole I played that ended up being a hole in one on a short dogleft par 4 making a 260 yard 3 wood ACE! Used this feature in my post and people kept messaging me saying “the flyover was cool to see with the post”. As long as you track all your shots through the app you could use this feature for a full 18. Overall I recommend the app and their products!
