πŸ“ How do I measure a throw on UDisc?

This article will outline how to measure a throw on UDisc and view your past measured throws.

Updated over a week ago

There are two ways to save measured throws in the UDisc App:

  1. In an active scorecard, you can use map scoring to save a throw.

  2. Via the You tab by tapping the ☰ icon in the upper-right, and "Measure throw".

See each section below for more details.

How do I measure throws in a scorecard?

Follow the steps below to measure a throw in your scorecard on UDisc.

  1. On the scorecard map, tap and hold in the spot where your disc landed.

    1. This marks your throw on the scorecard, but does not save it to your Throws measured list.

  2. Save to your Throws measured list by tapping the blue ruler icon.

    1. You'll be prompted to enter the disc and the type of throw.

    2. Tap the X to exit the throw and return to your scorecard.

  3. Continue scoring.

    1. You can continue to measure your throws throughout the round, or you can return to standard scoring.

    2. To complete the hole you're on, either mark the spot of your next throw, or tap the orange Plus button to add your next throw without mapping it. There you'll indicate where it landed.

      1. To complete your score on this hole, you must end with it in the basket.

If you'd like to score your entire round with map scoring or full stats, consider changing your Record stats setting to Throw tracker during round setup or in the scorecard menu.

How do I measure and view my throws outside of a scorecard?

The ☰ menu in the upper right of the You tab allows you to record throws.

  1. Tap Measure throw in the list.

  2. Give UDisc a few seconds to find your exact location.

  3. Once you’re satisfied with your location, press Set Start and walk to your disc, then press Set End to mark the distance.

  4. You will be prompted to select the disc you threw, or you can select Add New Disc if you have not yet entered its details.

  5. After selecting the disc you threw, you can enter your throw type (Backhand, Forehand, Overhand, Backhand Roller, or Forehand Roller).

    1. If you threw multiple discs from the same starting location, just select Next Disc to continue measuring.

  6. Select Save to store your throws in the app.

To view a list of your previously recorded throws, view your Progress on the You tab and tap on Throws measured (underneath the Rating history chart).

Here you can sort by throws you've recorded including filters like date, distance, disc, and type. Additionally, if you select a disc in the Discs menu, you can see a list of all throws with that disc.

To share a throw with a friend, tap Share Throw and you will see your options for sending the image, or you can save the image to your device!
