Hi: it would be great to be able to measure distance thrown on the Garmin smartwatch.

I have used the Garmin watch app « DiscGolf » for a year before switching to the Udisc Pro. DiscGolf has a nifty feature that indicates the distance between your current GPS location and the last time you updated your score (hit the + button).

No need for complex data recording on the main app: a simple distance measurement without having to take out the phone would be nice.

…Ben…

I agree this would be an awesome feature. I have an Apple Watch that should be able to relay similar information to my phone while playing. I really like all the statistics you can get with throws but pulling my phone out every shot can really slow down play on busy courses. A disc selector would be great too

We’re with you all too! This has been requested a few times including [posts like this](https://forum.udisc.com/t/record-throws-on-smart-watch/334775/2).

It’s on our minds but not on the near term roadmap just yet. Appreciate you all submitting this feedback!

Please add ability to track distance to Garmin. I signed up for trial of udisc pro. Will now cancel since the only reason I wanted was to have the Garmin watch integration. It doesn’t do anything but keep score. Pretty useless if you end up using your phone every time anyway.
