2.2.0
Latest
Tap the green where the ball stopped
- A chip is recorded by tapping the green where the ball came to rest, instead of counting on three zone buttons. There is a fourth zone now: holed.
- A saved session now opens to be looked at, not corrected: a spread map of where the balls finished, a line about the side you keep missing on, and your zones against the average of earlier sessions.
- The sketch records which side of the hole, never a distance — nobody measured that. The zone stays the hard number.
- Session time comes from a stopwatch that runs from the first chip to saving; the field you type into stays in editing.
- Day and time sit behind one button, distance moved onto a slider, and a session is deleted by swiping its row to the left — drills and logged sessions alike.
- The crash-diagnostics consent is gone from Settings: nothing ever used it, so the app was asking for a purpose that does not exist.
- Sessions recorded before this release open without a map and need no fixing.
-
2.1.0
Four more languages
- The app speaks German, French, Spanish and Czech as well as English and Polish — with the plural forms each of those languages actually uses.
- Links out of the app — the privacy policy and deleting your data — open this site in the language the app is set to.
- The privacy policy inside the app quoted a contact address that does not exist. It is golfmaster@janiszewski.art.pl everywhere now, app and site alike.
-
2.0.1
The new name reaches Google Play
- Icon, promo graphic and screenshots in the store now carry the Short Game name. This is the build the store listing was rebuilt around.
-
2.0.0
GolfMaster Pro becomes Short Game
- New name, new mark, new icon. The app is about one thing — the short game — and now it says so.
- The interface was rebuilt from scratch on one design system: three tabs — Practice, Sessions, Insights — instead of screens that each looked like their own app.
- Accuracy is counted within three feet, the same way for drills and for sessions you log afterwards, and every entry carries the time of day.
- The Leap Frog drill finally does what the name means: every ball has to stop farther than the one before it, and the run lands in that club’s statistics.
- One session form instead of two that had drifted apart, and settings split into your bag and your account.
- Signing in with a Google account moved onto the welcome screen, where it belongs.
