Release Notes

New Features

• Import from Golf Genius — bring a Golf Genius event straight into Settle Up Golf. Enter the event code and the roster, tee sheets, and pairings come over automatically — no re-entering names or groups. Running a multi-day event? Pull the next day's foursomes from Golf Genius right in the lobby. New
• Add games mid-round — forgot to set up a bet before you teed off? Open the Bets tab and add Nassau, Skins, Wolf, or any game right in the middle of your round. New

Improvements

• More accurate AI round recaps and pep talks — winners and losers are never mixed up, and highlights only mention shots you actually hit
• Home screen puts New Round front and center, with Join a Round right below it

Polish & Fixes

• Profile changes now save reliably every time
• Negative money in Courses and Games "Best" stats now correctly shows red
• Challenge setup no longer jumps to the top of the page while you're filling it out

New Features

• Auction-Style Calcutta — run your tournament Calcutta as a live auction instead of a fixed buy-in. Record what each team sells for and who owns them; sale prices fund the pot automatically. When the tournament settles, payouts pay back to the owners by their share — and any player can own any team, even one they're not playing on. New

Improvements

• Smarter GHIN score posting — posting now flags a clearly-wrong hole before you submit, and a new number pad makes hole-by-hole entry fast and accurate
• Best / Worst now counts full 18-hole rounds only, so a 9-hole card can't sneak into your best- or worst-round stat
• Score Trend skips 9-hole rounds, so the trend line only tracks comparable 18-hole scores
• Head-to-head records show "+N others" once you've played a long list of opponents — cleaner, no endless scroll

Polish & Fixes

• Assorted bug fixes across Calcutta settlement, stats, and the Bets View

New Features

Works for rounds, tournaments, and Birdie Pools. Free tier has a monthly cap; Premium is unlimited. New
• Events tab + Schedule a Round — the Tournament tab is now Events. Inside, the new Schedule a Round flow lets you invite your regulars by phone, collect RSVPs (In / Maybe / Out), and lock a meet time before anyone shows up. When you're ready, tap Launch and everyone hops into a live round. New
• Hi-Lo gets its own card — Hi-Lo (2 pts/hole: low ball + high ball) is now a top-level game in the picker, no longer buried under Match. Picks up its own setup card with wager + Nassau toggles. New
