BirdieLab1.4.0 - App Store

BirdieLab tracks your golf rounds hole by hole - keeping score while building a clear picture of your game over time.

Score Every Hole, The Right Way
Enter your score, fairways hit, greens in regulation, and putts for each hole as you play. Your total and score-to-par update in real time, so you always know where you stand. Play a full 18, or just the front or back nine.

Live GPS Yardages
Open the GPS view on any hole and see front, center, and back-of-green distances from your current position or the tee. Drop a layup marker on the course map to measure to a target. Auto mode switches from tee distance to your position as you move down the fairway.

Your Handicap, Calculated Right
BirdieLab computes your USGA handicap index as your rounds accumulate - best N differentials from your last 20 rounds, multiplied by 0.96. The number updates automatically, and you can track how it moves over time.

Stats That Actually Tell You Something
See your average score, average putts, fairway percentage, and GIR percentage across your rounds. A score trend chart shows where your game is heading. Filter by course to compare your performance at each track. Career stats give you lifetime totals at a glance, along with your best and worst rounds.

Find Courses Nearby
Open the Play tab and BirdieLab surfaces courses near you automatically using your location. Search by name for any course in the database. Select your tee box before you start - multiple tees per course, sorted by rating.

Course Info and Reviews
Each course page shows hole-by-hole detail: par, handicap index, and yardages by tee box. Rate courses on overall quality, difficulty, and value. Log the course condition and pace of play, and leave notes for other golfers.

Match Play & Group Rounds
Play head-to-head with new 1v1 and 2v2 match play, or keep it classic with stroke play. Group rounds now show up as a single shared post in your feed, so everyone can react and chat in one place.
