What's New

iOS 6.45.1

Offline course maps, fewer shots to add by hand when you wear your Apple Watch, and an easier way to pair any Smart Laser.

New

• Offline course maps: No signal on the course? Your Live Map switches to a course map with every shot still on it, and goes back to satellite when you're back in range. Edits you make there show up on your round right away.
• Fewer missed shots with Apple Watch: If you wear your Apple Watch on a round tracked with your phone or an older Arccos wearable, the watch no longer gets in the way of shot detection, so far fewer shots need to be added by hand.
• Any Smart Laser on any plan: Any Smart Laser subscription now covers any Smart Laser, and you can finish pairing right in the app.

Improved

• Simpler pairing from Start Round: If your saved Arccos Air is off, a new prompt lets you reconnect it or pair a different one. Clearing your saved Air now sticks, and Start Round switches to phone detection.
• Steadier connections: Smart Laser and older Arccos wearables connect more reliably, and firmware updates are less likely to be interrupted partway through.

Fixed

• Sensors off means off: When you've turned off sensors, wearable shots are no longer added to your round.

Android 7.25.9

Choose which conditions your Smart Laser's plays-like distance accounts for, right from App Preferences.

• Smart Laser plays-like settings: Choose which conditions your Smart Laser factors into its plays-like distance, right from App Preferences. Changes reach your laser as you make them.
• Today's conditions on your laser: Your Smart Laser now gets the current conditions, and a new round no longer starts with the last round's weather.
• Easier laser updates: No need to turn your laser on first, and if you skip an update, the app reminds you a few days later.
• Delete retired clubs: Permanently remove a retired club from Manage Clubs.
• Email or call us: Contact Arccos Support now lets you email or call, and emails open right in your mail app.
• Fixes: The Round In Play notification opens the round you're playing, Move Shots is easier to read in dark mode, and removing a favorite course now works every time.
