• 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.

Android 7.24.6

Round Replay is open to every member: relive any round shot by shot. Plus more accurate Smart Laser plays-like distances.

New

• Round Replay for everyone: Tap Watch Round Replay on any finished round to relive it shot by shot. Each hole plays out on the satellite map with shot tracers and the club and lie for every shot, while your score, fairways, greens and Strokes Gained add up as you go. Pause, scrub or speed it up anytime.
• What's behind your three-putts: Your putting card now shows what's causing three-putts, based on how far your first putt leaves you.

Improved

• More accurate Smart Laser plays-like distances: Your Smart Laser now gets complete weather from the app, including humidity, and stays accurate at the start of a round while the forecast is still loading.
• Easier Arccos Air pairing: The app now keeps searching for your Air for up to 15 seconds, instead of giving up after 5.
• Typical-Shot Score: The Skill Score card is now called Typical-Shot Score, with clearer wording about the shots you gain and lose.

Fixed

• Older Arccos wearables: Starting a round no longer stalls at 100%, and shots taken during a brief GPS dropout are no longer lost.
• Stability: Fixed a mid-round crash and improved how Bluetooth reconnects.

Android 7.23.3

Arccos Air and Smart Laser now reconnect on their own, and extra putts can no longer pile up on a hole.

• Smart Laser reconnects on its own: After a brief disconnect, your Smart Laser comes back without any help from you.

Fixed

• Excluded means excluded: Rounds you've excluded no longer count toward your scorecard stats.
• 3D course view: The 3D view in your hole strategy map loads properly again.
