TheGrint App - Golf Games Feature Available Now!

For a long time now, and thanks to many of your suggestions, we have been working on a new feature to track more than just Medal. This new feature would not only allow you to track your Games but the History of your Games against your friends, so you can keep the tally.

Well, today we are announcing that the Games Feature is already out in our iPhone app and ready to be used (Make sure you download the latest iPhone version).

So, how does it work? Pretty easy... Below we will show you the Screenshots of where you can find the Golf Games Feature as well as the instructions and an example of how it works.

We hope you enjoy it! And please let us know your feedback as you try it out.

The Games Feature you can find it on the Players Setup Screen (at the bottom):

As you can see above, in the "Select Players" screen we now have a Games button, that you can use to select between 6 Games (currently). Once you select the Game you can setup your Game as follows

  1. HDCP: You can play Net or Gross Scores.
  2. Mode: You can play War (everyone against everyone), Pot (all competing for one big prize) or Pairs (2 Vs 2). And
  3. Points per player, which basically determines how much the Front 9, Back 9 and Nassau.

As you will see on the image above, because it is High & Low Game, the App automatically separates Team A (Player 1 & Player 2) and Team B (Player 3 & Player 4).

Now, you might be wondering, what if you don't now how one of those Games is played exactly? Well, just tap on the "Explanation" option next to "Games" and it will take you to the Screens below:

After this Screen, you just need to Swipe to the Right to read how each of the Games is played, and you will see the Screens below:

After you and your Partners decide which Game you all want to play, it is time to have fun!

Select the Game on the Players Setup Screen and then continue to the 1st Hole and start tracking your Scores like usual.

Then after a few Holes or after the 1st Hole if you want, you can check how the Game is going by Taping where it says "Games" at the Bottom of the Screen.

(shown below using the Stableford Format- Red Arrow)

Now, if you tap where it says "See Points Details" it will show the same table but explaining how the points are distributed (shown below) Also, for more detail on how the Game is going between all of the players, you can Tap where it says "More" and it will show you a list of all the Holes you have played, with each of the Players' Score and Net Score so that you can all see where each of the Players Won or Lost Points.

(This shown below as well)

After you all finish your Rounds and the Game is over, we make it easy for all of you to see who Won and who Lost. Before you get to the Scorecards and before you upload your Scores, the App will show you the Game Results (shown below).

After you all upload your Scores, the Games you play will be saved in your Account, under the Stats Tab and then on Games Performance.

There you will be able to see what is your Win % of all of the Games you have played with your Friends, the amount of Points you have accumulated on all of your Games, the Avg. Points and the amount of Games you have played as of that day.

At the bottom you will be able to see the Games Log and if you Tap on one of them, you will be able to Review the Results of that specific Game as well.
