Handy Cap - Check your handicap history on Android... and now iOS!

**BGH** · 2nd May 2017 10:30 AM

I've been working on a new version of Handy Cap with a couple of new features + bug fixes. If anyone wants to help me out with some testing shoot me a PM with your email address. Just after Android testers for now sorry. I'll update the iOS app if the Android changes are well received.

U still got my email?

**BGH** · 2nd May 2017 10:35 AM

Yeah mate, I'll send you the new version if you like.

**mrbluu** · 2nd May 2017 10:36 AM

Thanks

Love this app and have gotten a bunch of mates to start using it. What type of new features will you be adding? As I mentionned in a PM I sent you a couple of weeks back:if you find a way to get a full 4 year history of scores there that would be ace!

Thanks again for taking the time to add to this app. It really is good

Unfortunately getting more history isn't possible due to the limitations on how I suck in the data.

As for new features, all I did was add the ability to auto-refresh the data in the background automatically in conjunction with getting notifications when someone hits a good/bad score.

Can you send me the golflink# causing the issue please.

**backintheswing** · 2nd May 2017 04:08 PM

So I open the app, pull down to refresh and get that message all the time. Then I can't tap on anyone's handicap

**BGH** · 2nd May 2017 05:02 PM

Well that isn't particularly helpful. Who made this thing?!!?

There will be one particular number causing it. If you can be bothered can you try removing them one by one and letting me know which one is causing it.

Ok I'll do it at work tomorrow

Think I got that error when one of the golflink numbers had lapsed (no longer a member).

Yeah I still have it. Found a few more bugs last night, so I'll send out the new version for testing one I sort them out.

Deleted a couple of handicaps I thought may have expired and all good

**BGH** · 3rd May 2017 02:05 PM

Can you to tell me what they were please so that I can build some smarts into the app. Don't want the whole thing to bust just because you have one dodgy golflink number in there.

I actually deleted the 2 numbers and didn't write down what they were. And I have just checked the database on migolf and they are not listed anymore. I think I do have their numbers somewhere on a spreadsheet, will get them next week when I'm home from working away.

They may be in the screenshot above that you posted the other day Ash?

No they were right down the bottom of my list. I'm home in a week. I should be able to dig out one of the numbers.

Just wondering how there golflink numbers would help, could you use any golflink number that has expired to test it?

If you go onto golf.org.au you get the same error no matter if the number existed at sometime or a number that never existed.

I released a new version of Handy Cap for Android last night guys. A few bug fixes in there, but the main new feature is the ability to automatically get notifications when someone on your list hits a good score. Doesn't sound like much but it's really handy to just get a notification in the background when one of your mates hits a good score instead of remembering to fire up the app and individually check everyone's scores all the time.

Will get cracking on the iOS version now.

No need for this feature mate, I already know when Peppas wins a free lunch off Tomsy!!!!

I have error messages when I try to update, and player info is at least a couple of weeks out of date when I drill down. Under each player listing the error message is " Update Error - Check that this is a valid golfer ID".

Do I have to uninstall and then reinstall the new version.? My Apps are all up to date according to the Google store.

Used it last weekend on a boys trip - its a bloody ripper. I like the last time updated feature.
