How to use Shane Golf's

1. Create your account

Tap “Create free account” and sign up with your email or Google.
If you used email, open the confirmation email and tap the link.
Go to your profile (your picture, top right) and add your name and a face photo so friends recognize you.

Everyone gets one unique code, like BIRDIE-7K2Q. You'll find it on your home screen and profile.
The same code does two things: friends use it to join your crew, and anyone can use it to watch you play live.
If you shared it with the wrong person, tap “New code” on your profile. The old code stops working right away.

Tap “Share” next to your code to text or message it, or tap the copy button.
Your friend signs up, opens “Crew”, types your code and taps “Join”.
Once you're in the same crew you can see each other's rounds, live scores and stats.
To join a friend's crew, ask for their code and enter it the same way.

Send your watch link (the “Share” button includes it) to family or anyone following along.
They don't need an account: they can open the link, or type your code on the home page and tap “Watch”.
Scores refresh by themselves while you play. They'll see you and your crew's rounds from today.

Open “Courses”, then “Add course”, and take a clear, flat photo of the scorecard (or pick a screenshot).
Wait a few seconds while it reads the course name, tees, pars, yardages and handicaps.
Check every number, fix anything wrong, then save. The photo is kept on your account.
New courses are available to you and your crew right away. Once an admin checks them, they're added to the list for every player.
You can also type a course in by hand.

Tap “Play”, pick the course and your tee, then start.
On each hole enter your score, putts, fairway (hit or which way you missed, including bunkers) and whether you hit the green.
Everything saves as you go. With no signal, scores are kept on your phone (it says “No signal — saved on phone”) and upload by themselves when signal comes back. Keep the app open or reopen it once you have signal.
When you're finished, tap “Finish & post round”. It moves out of live and into your history and stats.

“Stats” shows averages, best rounds, fairways, greens, putts, birdies and the scoring breakdown, for 18 holes, 9 holes or a single course.
Pick a course to see hole-by-hole averages and which holes are hardest for you.
You can look at anyone in your crew's stats too.

Only people in your crew can see your profile, photo and rounds.
People with your code or watch link can see your name, photo and today's scores, nothing else.
To leave a crew, open “Crew” and tap “Leave”. Crew owners can remove members.
