Navigating The New In-Play Experience

It is here! One of the smartest refreshes to the Arccos app.
Meet the New In-Play Experience, a completely redesigned interface that makes playing smarter, faster, and more intuitive than ever before. Whether you have been using Arccos for five rounds or five seasons, this update is designed to keep you in rhythm with your round while delivering deeper insights and better visuals at every turn.
Let’s explore what is new and how to make the most of it.
The moment you play your next round with Arccos,, you will feel it. This is a dynamic new interface built around a live, interactive map. It gives you easier access to the features you use most, with smarter layouts and faster tools.
You can now explore the course in real time with smooth, high-resolution maps that bring your surroundings and your strategy into sharper focus.
There is no need to download the course in advance. Simply open the app, check your course, start your round, head to the first tee, and start playing.
Smarter Mapping at Your Fingertips
The new map experience is designed to give you total control and clarity with every shot:
-
Zoom and Tilt: Pinch to zoom in or out and tilt the map for a better perspective on elevation, layout, and landing zones
-
Hold and Drag: Press and hold anywhere on the map to reveal distances and through-lines, helping you plan your next shot with precision
From tight doglegs to reachable par fives, you now have a real-time, bird’s-eye view of your round.
Easier and More Accurate Shot Editing
One of the most requested upgrades is here: better shot editing. Whether you are reviewing your round or making a quick correction mid-play, the new interface makes it easier than ever:
-
Tap a Shot: Quickly adjust club, lie, penalty, or delete the shot
-
Move a Shot: Drag your finger on the screen to reposition it exactly where it should be
-
Rearrange Shots: Tap the shot icon in the bottom left, then press and hold to reorder
-
Edit a Shot: Tap the pencil icon next to any shot to make changes instantly
With improved visual clarity and map precision, you can be confident your round reflects your game whether the ball ended up in the fairway, the rough, or somewhere a little more adventurous.
