Apple Watch
The watch app is a wrist-glance companion to the iPhone. The phone is the source of truth (auth, GPS, voice processing); the watch shows you what you need at a glance and lets you tap a score in two seconds without pulling the phone out.
Three vertical pages
Swipe up/down on the digital crown or screen to move between pages.
Page 1 — Glance (default)
The post-Step-2 design. Mirrors the marketing mockup:
- H{n} + tee yardage + par
- +N thru M — your score-to-par through holes played
- Bets: +N — your net units across all active bets on this round
This is the page you swipe to right before you hit a shot. Glanceable. No interactivity.
Page 2 — Quick score grid
Top: a player chip row (initials). Tap to switch which player you’re scoring for. Below: a 2×2 grid of Birdie / Par / Bogey / Double tiles, color-coded. Tap a tile and the score posts. Auto-advances to the next player. When all players have a score for the current hole, it nudges the phone to advance.
Page 3 — Standings
Compact roster: each player’s name and course handicap. Useful for tracking the field at a glance during a tournament foursome.
How sync works
The phone publishes a context to the watch on every change (round starts, hole advances, score saves, auth token refresh). The watch decodes and renders. When you tap a score on the watch, it sends a message back to the phone, which posts to the server via the iOS APIClient and pushes a refreshed context.

What the watch does NOT do (yet)
- Voice on the watch. Mic permission is requested but the wake-word listener runs only on the phone today. Tap-to-talk on the watch is on the roadmap.
- Direct API auth. The watch routes scoring through the phone’s APIClient — there’s no separate watch auth flow on day one.
- Caddy advice on the watch. The phone Glance has the full caddy card; the watch is intentionally minimal.
Wear it like
The Glance page is what you’ll glance at right before each shot. The Quick Score grid is what you’ll tap right after each hole. Most rounds you’ll spend 90% of the time on Glance (page 1) and tap to score on page 2 a couple seconds at the green.
