What's New

iOS 6.36

The biggest update in Arccos history. Every tab has been redesigned, with clearer stats, a goal to work toward and a plan for where to improve.

New

• A goal to play toward: Set a handicap or scoring goal, and the Player tab shows how you're trending and which part of your game is costing you the most strokes. Read the full announcement.
• Practice with a plan: Lock in a focus area and get practice drills built around it, sized to the time you have.
• Round Story: Replay your round hole by hole, with an AI summary of what defined it.
• Club Comparison: Put two clubs side by side and see shot dispersion for every club in your bag.
• Every course you've played: The Courses tab maps every course you've played, with your best holes and biggest opportunities at each one.
• Pre-round warm-up: Get a range session built from your game and the time you have before you tee off.

Fixed

• Editing putts: Changing your putts from the scorecard works as expected again.
