New wearables, Including Google Watch and Google Glass, allow golfers the convenience and comfort to access all of Golfshot’s premium features

Tempe, ARIZ. – August 5, 2014 – In situations where a mobile phone is not allowed on the golf course or a player feels that it is just too cumbersome to carry, Android Wear now solves that problem by allowing the golfer to stash away their phone and access all the features and functionality that Golfshot offers through a simple and easy to use wrist-worn device. Golfshot is among a select first group of Android Wear apps that will be available on Google Play and the only golf game-management app.

Recognized as the “Top Free Sports App” in Google Play and the #1 Golf App Worldwide, Golfshot has no subscription fees and offers:

• Real-time GPS distances to the green on 500,000+ golf holes and 40,000+ courses worldwide

• Detailed satellite imagery of each hole with ability to zoom in on specific target areas

• Android Wear™ support for small, powerful devices worn on the body

• Ability to track fairways hit, greens hit in regulation (GIR), putts per hole, and other vital user stats

• Easy-to-use scorecard that allows you to keep score for yourself or entire foursome

• Ability to track distances in real-time for each shot

• Unique sharing feature that allows you to share scorecards and photos

“With wearable GPS devices becoming more ubiquitous on the golf course, golfers can now tap into Golfshot’s game management features utilizing a wearable watch that’s comfortably light, bright and easy to use,” said Ben Addoms, President of Shotzoom.

The new Android Wear extends the Android platform of personalized service and apps to wearables that are bright and stylish. Without having to take your mobile phone out, Android Wear provides relevant information on your wrist when you need it like weather forecasts, calculator, compass, messages and alerts. Simple and easy to use, Android Wear also allows one to get the information through voice activated Google commands.
