DroidCaddie Golf Review
by on March 13, 2010
DroidCaddie may be a serious app for serious golfers but it looks and feels like a game. Using your phone’s GPS, it can pinpoint where you are on any given course and it will also act as a virtual score card, where you can let it add up all the strokes without fear of cheating or pencils breaking.
The app lets you create your own courses while you play, in order to help you better your game the next time around. To create a course, you key in every time you hit a ball (by pressing Hit), what club you use and other snippets of info. The app will then do the rest, analysing how far the ball has gone by using your GPS.
Once you have this data, you can go back to it again and again to see how you are improving.
The app is a little confusing the first time you use it, but after a few goes it becomes quite addictive to use, if a little fiddly. It’s definitely one for the patient golfers out there.

Ragdoll Blaster 3
The iOS equivalent of a plain cheese sandwich: does the job, but it won't linger in the memory afterwards.
iPhone
Puckerz
One for those with a careless bent, and perfect for when you want to play a game but not do any thinking.

Pulse: Volume One
Stylish, absorbing and challenging, but needs Game Center support and an injection of longevity and jolly.
iPad
Procreate
Some hugely impressive tools and an interface ideal for artists make this a great painting app.

Difficult to set up, but once you’ve got it working, it offers a great range of print options.

Prince of Persia: Warrior Within HD
Control issues aside, Warrior Within really is a magnificent sequel.

pxl.
The interface feels a bit out of place on iOS, but it’s a fun app, and produces interesting results.
Puzzlejuice
Absurdly challenging, sometimes brutal, but frequently brilliant (especially on the iPad); just be aware of what you’re letting yourself in for. (Sob.)
