Golfshot and Apple Watch Fitness

I’ve noticed when using Golfshot while playing golf the Move ring of activity gets 0 calories burned if you save the round of golf but if you don’t save the round, you get “credit” for calories burned. I walk when golfing and my Move ring looks like I stayed in bed. I contacted Golfshot support and as Cornel Klink used to say “I know nothing”. Any ideas?

Hello Seyval,


It sounds like when you use the Golfshot app its does not record your activity. The Golfshot app does not record your activity just the golf game. You could always try starting a workout before opening the Golfshot app, this way its recording activity in the background while running the Golfshot app. Check out this link to learn more about starting a workout.

Seyval again. More information about Golfshot and my Move Ring. I played golf today and used Golfshot. At the end of the round my Move Ring reached 1050 calories burned while active. This was before I saved my score. I even received the reward for reaching my daily goal.


Then I saved my score. My ring actually REMOVED calories burned. When I look at my activities it shows my morning run with calories burned and 2 hours and 36 minutes of golf with 0 calories burned while active and total calories burned as 0. Even if I took a cart I would have burned more than 0 calories! There’s a bug somewhere. Apple or Golfshot? Who do I pester?

I have only recently experienced same problem. Played gold 3rd of October and 7th of October where the app synced the workout data and the calories burned. However 8th of October and yesterday, there was no recording of Workout/calories. I also had issues seeing distance on my watch as I had to open the app on the watch every time I needed to use it. Before it was constantly ON when I used the app. Not sure that I have changed any setting on the phone / watch, so not sure why suddenly there seem to be lack on data transfer etc. Bluetooth and mobile data ON. Perhaps an update to the app itself?
